Today is Thanksgiving! If I were to stop you and ask you what are you thankful for what would you say? As I have thought about this day I realize that there is much to be thankful for. We are blessed beyond words to live in a nation that honors our rights and freedoms. We daily experience a level of freedom that huge parts of our world have never known. I am thankful for these freedoms, and thankful for those who have made it secure for us. 

I am thankful for my family and the time that I have with them. I am thankful that today I am healthy - something we cannot take for granted. I am thankful for my job - it provides for my family, and it is a place I love to call home. Each day I get to work with some of the hardest working and most passionate people I've ever met. Thank you for that opportunity and privilege.
