Much to be Thankful for...

11/22/2012

 
It's Thanksgiving day, 2012.  I thought I'd share on my blog what I'm thankful for since it has been so long since I've updated it.  (I copied and pasted this from my facebook page)

Today there is so much to be thankful for, I have a hard time knowing where to start.  
First, I must thank God, for without him, there would be no reason to give
thanks.
  My family.... My wonderful wife Meg, who has stood by me through good times and bad.  She's been more tolerant of my sometimes crazy ideas and
activities than I could ever expect from anyone.  She's the heart in our
relationship.  A loving, caring soul that is always thinking of others... she reminds me of this when I am caught up in the hustle and bustle of life.  She can bring me back to center when I get way out on the fringes.   
 Our two daughters have got to be the biggest blessing, besides Meg, that
have ever come into my life. They remind me of innocence, sweetness and the
beauty of youth. Their constant questions and action keep me on my toes.  My
desire for them to turn out the way I'd like them to keeps me honest, sober, and hard working.
  Also for true friends... They are the ones you can really trust. They arent afraid to give you honest opinions about things.  I can't think of anyone besides my family I'd share my precious spare time with. 
 And finally my Business.....It's the financial backbone of our family.  It's
truly my dream job and I've got the best customers I could ever ask for.  I am
truly living my dream right now, and for that there are no words to express the
thanks in my heart.

 And that friends, is truly how I feel.  Its hard for me to read the words above without a tear coming to my eye. I have been blessed more than one person deserves in a lifetime already.

Also, we've got a new logo.  Thanks to Long Nguyen for cleaning up my original sketch and putting in a great digital format.  Only a fly tier could have gotten it exactly the way I wanted it, and Long just nailed it!   We'll be coming out with some hats and shirts hopefully soon.  This will also be the logo we are going to be putting on the window of our new showroom....... (more on that later) 
So with that, Happy Thanksgiving everyone from the bottom of our hearts!

What a great piece of writing!! And I've just gotta have one of those hats featuring the new logo! Let me know when they'll be coming out.

Best, Jon
