Happy Thanksgiving!

I wanted to wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving!

As we celebrate with family and friends today, take a few moments to count your blessings. Many times we forget about the many things our lives are blessed with. Life is too short – be thankful for what you have. I am reflecting on this year with so many things to be thankful for! Here are just a few things that I am thankful for this year:

My supportive husband! He has always supported my crazy ideas and gives me the freedom to implement them!
My boys (of course!). They bring so many laughs and fun times.
My karate family. The dojo is our second home and we have fallen in love with the supportive families. I don’t know what we would do with out our karate family!
Water. When we visited my family in California recently, the water crisis was apparent. Here in Virginia we turn on the faucet without a worry while in California they carefully monitor every drop. It’s a serious situation that breaks my heart.
Time. I am thankful for any bit of time I have spent with my parents, siblings and extended family this year. Since we live on opposite coasts, it is a rare occasion that we are together. But when we do see each other, I cherish every second, every laugh, hug and smile.
My assistants Litsa and Ashley. I could not run How to Have it All without you! Litsa, you are truly keep me organized! Plus I love your ideas! Ashley- the recipe index would be a lot less exciting without your terrific cooking skills!
My job. My home. My animals. Really the list goes on and on!

Take some time today to think about the things you are thankful for. Spend time with family and friends with no distractions- I know it’s hard with all of these shopping deals coming- but it’s worth it!
