Giving Thanks

I was lucky enough to get to go home and to NYC for Thanksgiving Break and got to do so many incredible things... Here are a few:

• Saw Lincoln in the brand new theater back home
• Went to seminary with two of my siblings - so great
• Worked out with Til (ouch but thank you...)
• Watched J-Fly play basketball
• Saw two Broadway plays (Newsies and Annie - SO good)
• Had the "best Thanksgiving steak dinner EVER" - direct quote from Papa Haws
• Ground Zero memorial
• Museum of Modern Art
• Helped Julia with her photography project (flashback to me doing the same thing four years ago)
• Warm, pretty, long drives up and down the east coast (passing TC Williams High School - which my dad was incredibly excited about)
• Stayed/shopped on Times Square
• Saw Old Towne Alexandria
• Got to catch up with my mom and picked up a small supply of her secret brown sugar
• Talked to my grandpa on the way to and from the airport

I feel so blessed and so lucky to have gotten to spend my break the way I did.

And just because November isn't over, here are a few more things I'm thankful for:

• Girls that I teach that say thank you
• Every girl participating in class today
• Jokes that the temple workers make to me
• Snapchats with my siblings
• Leftovers
• Teammates
• Roommates
• Christmas music

I apologize for the lack of pictures... I can't seem to find my phone cord (which might have something to do with the fact that I haven't unpacked yet. Oops).
