Thankful

Once again we are incredibly overwhelmed at the the amazing support we continue to receive!!  It really is amazing, unbelievable!!  We are so thankful!!! 
We were able to go to my family's for the first time since before Addie was diagnosed in May!  They were celebrating Christmas and we made a last minute decision to make the trip!  Emma unfortunately had to stay home because she wasn't feeling well!  The girls were so excited and Addie didn't mind in the slightest that she had to wear her mask!!  It was so nice to be with my family, just like old times!! 
To our surprise, we had a lot of surprises waiting for us there... It was absolutely incredible!!  The gifts we received were once again just perfect for our family and unbelievably generous!!  My dad's work, Hormel, wanted to do something special for myself and my family and that they did!!  They wowed us all with their thoughtful gifts and generosity... Thank you to all of those who donated to our family, thank you for your support of sweet Addie Bean!  You made both my family and my Dad feel so special and so loved!!! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!
We also were presented with some great gifts from Mrs. Kenyon's fifth grade class at Pleasantville Elementary.  They decided rather than have a gift exchange between themselves that they would give gifts to our family!!  Does that make your heart melt or what?!  It did mine!!  Thank you all so much... Gracie, Addie and Emma were beyond ecstatic at the gifts you picked for them!! Another special thank you to Donna Bishop for the sweet gifts and gift card!!  So thoughtful and so generous... 
Thank you again to everyone who has helped us along this road... Your love and support help make this road a little less bumpy!!  So much LOVE back at you, I thank God for each and every one of you!!
