Giving Thanks


Per the cliché, now is the time to take a look around and give thanks.

For us, that ritual begins at home: a wonderful husband & wife team, a curious and joyful little girl, amazing and caring family around the states, and our home in North Carolina.
 
Like many of our neighbors, we came to North Carolina from “somewhere else.” For us, it was a move that came after the declining job market (2008) in our hometown of Rochester, NY. It just made the most sense to move where the jobs were plentiful and we could have our pick.
 
We are thankful for the many friends we’ve made here – some of them starting as coworkers. We’re thankful for the area as a whole; 3 hour drive to the coast, and 3 hour drive to the mountains. We’re also thankful for the strong communities in our area and for neighbors who have had our backs more than once when we needed them.
 
As we all sit down in the days to come, let’s take a moment to give thanks, to say thanks, and to show our appreciation to all of those friends, neighbors, and family members that impact us throughout the year.
 
Happy Turkey Day, and pass the stuffing.
