I know I missed thankful Thursday last week! To be honest with you it took me a long time to figure out why. Then I remembered last Thursday Kevin and I got a start on our Christmas shopping! Then we took a few hours Friday and finished the shopping. We were a very efficient shopping team!

Yesterday we went out to Aldor acres and went tree hunting! I love Aldor Acres farm! Not only did we get the perfect little tree again this year we got to see all the adorable farm animals including day old baby goats and 6 week old kittens!! I didn’t want to leave! If you ever find yourself in Fort Langley check out the farm! It’s an amazing family run farm that has a huge pumpkins patch in the fall and u cut tree lot for that perfect christmas tree! It is also a working dairy farm! Lots to see and learn.

So back to what I am thankful for! Tonight I wrapped all the christmas gifts. I am thankful that this year christmas has zero stress attached to it for us. The tree is up, gifts are bought and wrapped, lights are up, the personalized advent calendar for Kevin has been a huge hit so far! It’s nice to know we can just sit back and enjoy the season.

We are going to make a trip to the local animal shelter and hopefully OWL this coming week to drop of a donation of supplies. Most shelters have their need listed on their website.

We are also going to pick up a couple toys and some groceries for our local food and toy bank. I am extremely thankful that we are able to do these things to help our community. It may not be much but every little bit helps.
