What some of you may not know is that in my spare time (although there is very little of that when you are photographer this time of year), when I am not enjoying photography or spending time with my family, I LOVE scrapbooking and any kind of paper crafting.  Its been a while since I have had a moment to do any type of crafting, but I wanted to share my latest project with you.

In seeing so many of my friends posting about what they are thankful for this year on Facebook, I decided instead to bring this concept into our family in the form of a "Gratitude Jar".  Each day my husband, 2 boys and I are writing down one thing we are thankful for on a leaf (each of us was assigned a different color leaf).  On Thanksgiving Day, we will read all of the leaves!  

I think we will try to make this a yearly tradition!!  

What are some of your Thanksgiving Traditions?  Share in the comments if you'd like!!
