Giving Thanks





Sometimes feels like they're following us... Amway is all over here



Rob'll be in Singapore on Thanksgiving, Allie's competing in a swim meet in Malaysia this weekend, and we soon kick off our move and many farewells... so we took time to give thanks last weekend for our last visit to the island gem of Koh Chang. Great snorkeling, boat jumping, resorting, sunsetting, and for nearly every meal of our last little Thai getaway, the girls were grateful for Italian. 

Including a small taste on the long drive home... a stop at the Pizza Company where I misordered tiny little pizzas. Still famished, I ordered us another bigger cheese pizza. The darn thing arrived COVERED in little shrimps, octopus and fake crab. CHEESE pizza & SEA pizza kind of sound alike, so it seems. We laugh, pay our bill and grab KFC snacks to go.

There is a lot about this charming life that I am going to miss, including my many missteps through it.

But I am growing a little excited for the coming winter and SNOW! Just got season snowboard passes back home and researched new snowblowers for Rob, though I can't wait to shovel. I ordered us all new, cozy socks. Except for 3 pairs of graying running whites, I haven't really worn socks in almost 3 years. Now I've got a bunch waiting back home for my missteps there and I will be grateful to closet my clumsy flip-flops, for a while.
