| Tonga - July 2006 |
Happy Thanksgiving!
I hope everyone is having a fabulous day; enjoying fine food and friends/family. Jason & I celebrated yesterday as we're working today. So, we're having leftovers before most people even get their first thanksgiving meal - yummy!
While on the topic of feasting .... I have to admit something ... I've put on about 15 pounds since July.
No, I'm not packing on weight because we're moving somewhere that has a scarcity of food. I'm also not planning on hibernating through the winter (although sometimes that sounds pretty nice).
A weight gain like this is something I would generally be freaking out about. I'm comfortable with five pounds ... I know with a little work, I can get it back off. But, this ... 15 pounds. Oh my! And, I've been told to expect more, lots more ...
We're also expecting a completely new adventure to come our way, on or around March 25, 2013. Although planned, I have to admit this new adventure freaks me out even more than the weight I'm putting on.
I'm sure by this point, you will have guessed! Jason & I are expecting our first child!

So this year we are thankful for a healthy report on this little guy (yes, it's a boy!) and thankful for the road that we've been on together since joining Peace Corps Tonga in 2006.
