Happy Thanksgiving!

at the top before the chilly descent - fun times!!!!

Thanksgiving is truly my favorite holiday ever! Maybe it's because I am a nutritionist and I love all the food and the fact that this is the season of the harvest. But I think it is because of the pure simplicity of the holiday. No gifts, just good food and wonderful people around you. There is lots to be thankful for and so I just want to share with you some of the things that I am thankful for:
- my lovely husband
- my dog Lola
- my cats, Baxter, Bonnie and Clyde
- having a roof over my head that I call a home
- living in one of the most beautiful places in the world
- the fact that within 10mins of my home I can be in the trails and get lost running
- I have crazy friends that make me look not so crazy
- I have crazy friends that think up crazy things to do like paddle the length of Lake Okanagan(70miles?!?!?!)
- that I am healthy enough to enjoy these crazy things
- that I have found a career that allows me to work with wonderful people who challange themselves on a daily basis
And.....Last but not least......that I live at the bottom of Silver Star Mtn and that for every holiday weekend since May I have found a group of wonderfully crazy friends to ride up that hill with me - it was one of my goals this year and tomorrow that goal will come true! Thanks everyone and quite simply have a lovely holiday! and......
BE THANKFUL
