On this beautiful fall cold day of Thanksgiving, Corey and I wanted to come on and thank everyone who has been on this adoption journey with us. That being said, both of our families, friends, church community, and our close-knit community. Thank you so much for your support and love during this amazing adoption journey. This was a Thanksgiving that will not be forgotten because we had been planning to go spend our Thanksgiving in Las Vegas this year with most of Whitney’s family, but things changed when Whitney had to stay home and work on Black Friday. This was Whitney’s first time not being with her family in 39 years. I was very hurt that Corey & I were not able to spend it with my family. So the morning of Thanksgiving, Corey was making sure to make it special for me, and we turned on the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade as we watched it. My favorite float was the Bronx Zoo Float; just the details of the animals were amazing. For someone who really enjoys spending time at the local zoo, that float just had my heart. Corey’s Favorite float was the Upside Down Invasion: Stranger Things. As we watched the parade, we started to decorate our home for Christmas together. It was a fun morning that made my day much brighter. That evening we got to go spend Thanksgiving at Corey’s Grandpa’s house, with his parents, his great aunt, his aunt, and his uncle & aunt and one cousin. It was so much fun, and it made me realize that as long as we are with some family, that is all that matters. I hope everyone had an amazing Thanksgiving with their loved ones.
