I thank God for who he is and what he’s done in my life, for my family and all the many blessings he’s provided us with over the years, for my friends old and new, and most especially of all for you.
One of the biggest things I’m thankful for this year is meeting Allie this summer and getting to know her. As I’ve mentioned, she’s here in Colorado right now and we’ve been spending a lot of time together. Yesterday was most excellent — Estes Park, Rocky Mountain National Park, some chill-time at home, and dinner and a movie at FlatIron Crossing mall.
Today involved traditional family Thanksgiving with relatives and later in the evening Allie and I went to be with people from my church for continued eating and game playing.
Some of the most exciting news of the day involves a measurement and the difference of an inch. After years of thinking she measured 5′ 3″ tall, a tapemeasure has confirmed Allie to be 5′ 4″ tall. This is exciting stuff!
Unfortunately, I am only 6′ 1/8″ tall and therefore unable to conscientously round up to 6′ 1″. Alas.
Tomorrow I will be working while you are playing and shopping and whatnot (and unfortunately for you, I suppose, whatnot may also include working). ‘Twill be hazardous for the health of retail employees, I fear.
