thanksgiving.

through this blog, you will get to learn a lot about me. this thanksgiving, i want you to meet who it is that has shaped me to become this person. these are just some of the many people who i am thankful for.

here we are, mi familia. if you don't know us, then its hard to understand how hard it was to get us all to "pose" like this. "normal" i venture to say. but if you know me, then you know, that "normal" just ain't so!

this is who we are (well most of us) "normally". and it is for moments like these, i am so thankful for my family.

there are also a couple of little ladies that make my life interesting on a day to day basis. i have always fancied myself to be a "dog person" and when i first adopted saki, i thought i had lost my mind. and then a year later when i wanted to "gift" her with a sister, i knew it had happened. marbles, dropped and rolling across the table, to the floor, and out the door. these two little ladies are part of everything i do. whether it's, chewing on my yarn as i knit, attacking the printer as i print, or crying at my feet as i cook, they are 100% my heart and soul. and i am ever so thankful that they have entered my life, taught me patience and control. without them, well, there is no with out them. they are here to stay, and i will never have it any other way.

without further adue, meet the culprits behind all the cat hair in my projects.....

sakura mochi and kiryoku naru.

and yes, those are cats on my pjs. get used to it. :)

i am also incredibly thankful, amongst many other things, to have been supported and encouraged to go on my many adventures. without that support, i wouldn't find myself in places, that i can capture things like this.

happy thanksgiving everyone!

xoxo.
