It’s that magical time of year where the temperatures aren’t so hot anymore here in Texas. Football is on, and we are quickly approaching my favorite holiday, Thanksgiving. 

While this year has been a struggle for many of us, we still have so much to be thankful for, hopefully that includes family that you will be able to spend time with on Thanksgiving. It’s all about family, a little bit of football, and a whole lot of food.
