Throwback Third Thursday - November 2015

Thanksgiving is exactly one week away so this Throwback Third Thursday (#tbtt) I'm giving a shout out to the family I will be spending Thanksgiving with and that I am ever so thankful for! I am who I am because of their loving insanity. They are the best!  I haven't gotten to go home for Thanksgiving since I moved to Texas. This year, late November is not only Thanksgiving but also my nephew's 1st birthday and my dad's 60th birthday. I have had enough FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) over the past 3+ years that I was not going to miss milestones like these. So even though I'll be turning around to come home for Christmas less than a month later (the usual reason I don't come home for Thanksgiving), this year I will be making the trip to spend a long weekend with the Currys celebrating.
