We are grateful for:

November is the month of gratitude. Allison and I both get to be grateful for presents on our birthdays, the season begins to transform the earth into beautiful hues of orange and red, and we get to celebrate thanksgiving. At the beginning of this month Allison and I made a gratitude chart for Family Home Evening. We each were given a pencil and a piece of paper and we set the timer for three minutes. Our goal was to find 50 things that we were thankful for in three minutes. Here's what we came up with. (I wonder if you can guess who said what)
