Thankful

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! This blog isn't for airing our dirty laundry, so I won't go into any details. But it's enough to say this year has been hard for us. Even with everything that has happened, we are overwhelmed with gratitude for so many wonderful blessings. Isaac came into this world with several unexpected complications that could have been disastrous, but God protected him and me. We are so thankful for him. Miranda continues to grow, learn and light up our life in ways we could have never imaged. We are so thankful for her. Next month, Zane and I will celebrate our fifth wedding anniversary. Throughout these hard times, we have grown closer together when stress and worry could have easily put a wedge between us. We are so thankful for each other. This year brought big challenges to our lives, but it also brought big gifts. God is the giver of all good gifts, and so we ultimately thank him for his provision, protection and love.

Also, here's our most recent family picture. It was the best we could do :)
