"Graditudings"

As my friend Heather Kartchner was dying a few years ago, she made a point to express her "graditudings" for all that she had been given.  In the spirit of the season and of Heather, our family spent the first fourteen days (due to an emergency trip to Utah we didn't finish) expressing our "graditudings."  It was so much fun for my kids and for me to hear what they are grateful for.  Here's a photo and the list of what the Ravsten Family is grateful for this November.
