This Thanksgiving I am particularly thankful for a house to go to during the holidays. Comfortable furniture, hard-wood floors, cozy lighting, colorful walls, family photos, seasonal decorations, toys and books and Disney films, the screaming and laughter of children, the constant background conversation of the siblings: these are all things I don't get back in the good ol' dorm room and it's nice to be surrounded by family and the comforts of a home for a couple of days.
Hurrah for Miah and Missy and Ryan and Ann for giving me good company, someplace to go, and something to be particularly grateful for nearing the end of this semester. It's so worth the 14 hours of driving.
