Celebrating Thanksgiving In The New House!

This year we were fortunate enough to not only celebrate with our beloved Ohana, but we were fortunate enough and blessed by God to share it in our brand new home. So we had everyone: My sister Lynn, Zac, Bella & Vivi; sister Janet, Pete & Bruno their American Bulldog (see post above!); Martin's parents & brother, Ong Thuc, Ba Mai & Christian; Cousin Anna & Che and Cooper their Yorkie; and family friend Dennis all together in our home to break bread.

Every year as a tradition we go around the table saying what we each were thankful for during the year. Everyone had things ranging from food, to health, to family... me, I said that I was thankful for having Malia, because 10 months ago we didn't even know if we would be bringing Malia home, much less holding her in our arms and celebrating the holidays with us. Again, I can't say it any more than I have, but Malia truly is my miracle.

Some more things that we, as the Vu Crew Ohana are grateful for:
-Each other, most importantly!
-Our health
-A warm bed at night and a roof over our heads
-Food in our bellies
-Love for and from each other
-Supportive family
-A future bright ahead of us

Happy Thanksgiving All!!
