Gobble Gobble!!






happy thanksgiving! today happens to be my favorite holiday. it is the one day that is dedicated to reflection and being thankful for all the blessings in our lives. there are no gifts, no crazy holiday shopping, and no stress leading up to the day. its a wonderful day created to give thanks to God.

zack is underway and enjoying a lovely turkey dinner in the warm southern seas. they will be skeet shooting off the back of the ship today giving zack an experience he has definitely never had before!

i had dinner with my parents and for the first time ever we stayed home. it was a nice change but i definitely missed zack today. thankfully, he will be home for christmas!

here are a few pictures of our day and i had zack in mind when i posted them (this is the only way he can see pictures).

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I apologize for the big break in entries, but here is an update!

zack is still underway, and we finally had the chance to talk on the phone! he is doing well and can't wait until he comes home. about 2 more weeks to go!

I was in puerto rico visiting my dad for about a week. we had a wonderful time. it rained most of the time thanks to hurricane tomas. while i was there, i felt the baby for the first time! it was awesome!! now he or she is moving a lot and i am feeling much of it. it is so amazing! all you mothers were right when you told me that it was going to be incredible, that was a bit of an understatement!

not much else going on around here. time is passing which is wonderful and as long as nothing crazy happens, zack should be home soon. thanks for all the prayers, we have definitely been feeling them and would not be able to get through this as smoothly as we have without them. thank you!

here are some pics from the last ultra sound i had about 3 weeks ago.
