November AJ Challenge Week 2 {GRATITUDE}

The Week 2 AJ Challenge has just been posted. Our word prompt for November is GRATITUDE.
Here's my layout and you know I have a story behind my page.
Remember Covid? I know you do. WAY before that, my family traveled west to the foothills of the Ozark Mountains. to see if we might possibly want to move there. Our son-in-law's family lived in the area, and he wanted to buy a parcel of land, and we would all build homes on it. We went, saw, and loved - my late husband absolutely fell in love with this area. Fast forward to Covid - we had all made the commitment to move, but we couldn't even travel back and forth to make decisions. My husband was afraid to get on an airplane, (because of Covid)- so we had to trust the family. Even though it was by long distance, thanks to modern technology, I was hands on with every decision made about our new home, down to what kind of drawer pulls would be in our kitchen. We did a lot of Facetiming and movies were made and sent to us. Our son-in-law's brother was the General Contractor for all of our homes, so we were in very close contact throughout the building process. We FINALLY moved into our home on December 26, 2020.
I do remember about the lack of wifi, and can't imagine how you functioned during that time. Just the week we were without any connection during Helene nearly drove me nuts.
I was thinking you were here when I posted these. Nobody could believe that I kept the layouts coming, which I couldn't always do with my hotspot. Chuck was such a good sport - we got in the car every day and drove to someplace where I could download these big zip files, then went home so I could work on my layouts.
 
I spy your front porch - and I LOVE IT!!!!! Thank you for sharing the entire story and you scrapped it so beautifully!
Oh, I had to explain this "very busy - even for me" layout, Susie. There really was a "method to my madness". I LOVE my front porch, as you know.
