Thankful...

We have so much to be thankful for this year. It is crazy to think of how the Lord has continued to bless our lives with unbelievable things. Obviously, we are thankful for the health of Payton, our family and friends, and for all the blessings the Lord has placed before us.

This year, unlike any that I can remember, we had Thanksgiving at our own house here in Des Moines. I cannot remember the last time we actually made our own turkey and slaved over the stove all day for Thanksgiving Dinner. Usually, the Lynch family goes to Virginia, but this year was special because we were blessed with our daughter, and we thought we should stay close to home for once.

So Nana and Papa Lynch and Aunt Jenny all traveled to DSM for a Thanksgiving gathering. Here are a few highlights from the few days they were here!

As you can see, there was a lot of relaxing going on, and we all had a great time! Halley and I are so thankful for our wonderful families, and are so blessed by our daughter. We are slowly getting into a routine and our lives are adjusting to our new addition. At times, things are crazy, but we wouldn't change it for anything!
