Patrick's Thoughts on Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is such an exciting time of year and is likely my favorite holiday time. Overall, nothing quite compares to Christmas, but Thanksgiving is such a wonderful start to the actual holiday season. The holiday season so very special and I have so many things to be thankful for. First off, I am getting married next weekend to the absolute perfect girl. Secondly, I have been blessed with so many wonderful people in my life, including my immediate family, and enormous extended family. I could not ask for better friends and so many of these wonderful friendships continue to grow stronger. I live in a great little house with a crazy black and white dog and friendly snake. I attend a church that has really guided me closer to God and has emphasized the importance of living my life in a way that Jesus would approve. Obviously, I, like everyone else, have a lot to work on in that sense, but I think I am getting better. I am healthy, although I really should work-out a little more, but I am blessed with a healthy life. I work for a great company, that is creatively finding successful strategies during this difficult economic time. I have had the opportunities to visit many states in our great country and to witness a majority of our great state of Texas. So many great people, events, and opportunities have already been part of my short stay on Earth, and I am simply the most blessed person that I know, and I thank God for that! I am excited to find out what God has in store for me next!!
