The thing I am grateful for most this year was the opportunity I had to go home!!! My friends were constantly talking about how excited they were to see their families, and about their plane tickets, and all the fun things they were going to do. I couldn't stand to listen to it anymore because I wanted to go home so badly! It really is true that you don't know what you're missing until it's gone. I don't know what I would do without my family and I'm so grateful I get to be with them for eternity!
Things worked out and I got to drive home with my cousin Tim and his friend, Mike. We made the long 13 hour trek home to surprise our families! Waking up my mom at 1:30 in the morning was definitely the highlight. She had NO idea and I was so excited to surprise her! I'm glad she didn't know because I learned that I'm not a very good secret keeper and by the time I got home my dad, sister, and about 4 of my friends, plus my whole FHE group knew I was coming home haha!
I absolutely love Washington and just being home and the best part was that I sat around and did nothing! We watched movies and played games and just enjoyed being with each other. I could not have asked for a better thanksgiving. And what's keeping me going now is that there are only 3 weeks left of school and then I get to go back! I've already started counting down the days :)
