I am Thankful

As 2009 is coming to a close and today is Thanksgiving, it's always a time to reflect on what and who we are thankful and grateful for this year.

2009 has been an interesting year for me and for Your Las Vegas Wedding Concierge, filled with every emotion in the book, highs and lows, progress, setbacks, achievements, revelations and so much more. I am Thankful for all these things.

I had some truly wonderful couples that I collaborated with this year that gave me such joy over the time we planned and celebrated their weddings and were a constant reminder of why I love my career!! I am Thankful for all of you.

For the opportunity to help me see with a fresh perspective, what it is that I love to do and why, I am thankful.

I had the opportunity to work with some of my favorite local Las Vegas wedding professionals this year. Truly dedicated, talented and passionate people who always make me look good. I can't do what I do without a great group of people like you. I am Thankful to all of you for making the magic happen.

I had the opportunity this year to take a leadership role in an exciting new professional organization for Wedding Planners and Professionals and be part of creating a higher standard for the wedding profession I love. For the opportunity to have inspired some along the way and be inspired and supported by some amazing people I look up to, I am Thankful.

To my friends whom I have known forever and those I have met recently that already feel like lifelong friends; for being there not only to shake my hand, but to offer your shoulder on good days and not so great days. I am SO THANKFUL (and now I'm getting all "ferklempt")!

For the opportunity to live another year, sing another song, dance another dance, G-d and for the health of all those I love to live, sing and dance with, I am Thankful.

To have two wonderful countries like Canada (where I was born & raised) and the USA to call "home" is a blessing & I am Thankful to all those that so bravely protect my right to enjoy them. To live in a totally cool, fabulous city like Las Vegas is pretty nice too.

And finally, and most importantly, to my husband, my parents, my brother, my "girls"(the nieces, "daughters", my grand dogs), you are my light, my strength, my support system, my cheerleaders, my everything and to CELEBRATE MY LIFE AND MY LOVE with you, I am so Thankful.

To my readers, for reading, being patient and sticking with me, I am Thankful!

Wishing you all a wonderful holiday where ever you may be and Celebrate your Thanksgiving with LOVE, LIFE & STYLE!
