Today, we are thankful for changes: changes in seasons, changes in perspective, changes in leadership.

Today, for our 30 Days of Thanks, Darling and I are thankful for the modern convenience of Restaurants.

Walt Disney himself said, “I hope that we do not lose sight of one thing…it all started with a mouse.” Today, Darling and I are thankful for Mickey Mouse. Happy Birthday Mickey!

Water. Fresh, clean, free drinking water. Today, Jim and I are thankful for clean drinking water.

For today’s 30 days of Thanks, Darling and I are immensely thankful for being able to support our family and our endeavors.

Sometimes the things that we are most thankful for are brought forward due to not having that thing.

Some days you rush around trying to get everything done. For me, Jim tries to get errands and jobs finished as quickly as possible. Sometimes, that takes a long time. Today, for our 30 days of Thanks, Jim and I are thankful for the ability to relax.

Some of our traditions are time sensitive. Others are not. Today’s tradition is. Later in this month, the weekend after Thanksgiving, Darling and I will be going hunting: Christmas Tree Hunting. For today’s 30 days of Thanks, we are thankful for the tradition of Our Christmas Tree.

Today’s 30 Days of Thanks is going to lead to other things we are thankful for, but it starts with tradition. Today, we are thankful for our traditions.

Today, for our 30 Days of Thanks, Darling and I are thankful for the amazing Disney Food. Saying we go to Disney for the food is not whole accurate, but it is not far from it, especially the churros.

Today’s 30 days of thanks is all about our memories. Darling and I started Dear Disney in order to write down and share some of our most treasured things, our memories. The memories of Disney are the memories of our family and friends, of time long gone. Walt Disney said, “Goodbye may seem forever. Farewell is like the end, but in my heart is the memory and there you will always be.”

Today’s 30 Days of Thanks is that we are both thankful for our home, our castle.

Today, in our 30 Days of Thanks, Darling and I are thankful for the music in our lives and the music that inspired us, the music that was always there: Disney Music.

We are dealing with some minor, seasonal illnesses at our house. So in addition to stock-piling chicken soup, I turn on Disney and console my mind to happier times when Darling and my nose does not look like one of Santa’s Reindeer. So although we are all not feeling our best, todays 30 Days of Thanks is for our health.

Today is Dio de los Muertos and what better way to cap off the 31 Days of Halloween and begin the 30 days of Thanks is with the great 2017 Pixar film Coco.
