November Thankfuls - Day 27


Today I'm thankful for a trip to Mexico. That's right - Rory and I are going to Mexico in January. Today we paid off the trip - yeah! We literally saved our pennies in a jar for the last six months to pay for the trip. It is amazing when you set your mind to something how it seems to happen. A few months ago, I walked into the bank with jars full of quarters, dimes, and nickels and walked out with $1100. Rory put away $20 every time he worked and paid for the other half of the trip.
The trip is for a good friend of ours 40th birthday. It will be a memorable trip for all. I'm so thankful for the great friends we have and the memories we create together.
Last but not least, I'm so grateful for the family that is willing to take our kids while we are gone. It isn't easy to step up and take care of three kids for a week, and we appreciate it.
