Thanksgiving...

I am lucky enough to have married into a large, loving, amazing family.
Having come from a very small family myself (my parents are from England and what little is left of our family is still over there), I have always been envious of my friends with large families who get to experience the holidays with so many loved ones.

This year, for Thanksgiving, we went to my husband's parents' house yet again. His family is so welcoming, and I love being there with all the branches and generations. We brought his almost-18-year-old cousin home with us for the weekend, and at some point it hit me that this kid is my family now.

I love my husband, and I love this new family that has welcomed me with open arms.
