As our family spends time together today, Kelly and I wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving! This holiday is a reminder of the power of gratitude and the importance of spending time with those closest to us.
Each year, my family sits around the dinner table, and we say what we’re grateful for – here are some of the items that we are thankful for:
- Time together as a family
- Sisters that are best friends
- Time off from school (Ha!)
- Our cat, Ruthie
This year, I’m especially thankful for the men and women who serve this great country. Instead of spending time at home with their families, these men and women are protecting our country and keeping our communities safe. If you’re a nurse, doctor, firefighter, police officer, first responder, or servicemember; thank you for your service and sacrifice.
Iowa, it is an honor to serve you. I hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend filled with great food, company, gratitude, and laughter. Â
