PS Where in Epcot is the happy event going to take place?

It has been quite a long time since I have posted but I felt the need for coming "home" or at least as close to home as I can. This Thanksgiving Day is different from any others I have had. I am currently deployed to Iraq and, for the first time, away from family during this holiday. The holidays are a trying and depressing time for the majority of us here and I have seen it on people's faces all week long. It is even more trying for many of use due to the lengthened deployment of 15 months so we know we will be doing the same thing next year. But, this is a day to be thankful and I am trying to focus on that. So, here are some of the things I am thankful for:
1.The freedom to go to religious services of my choice
2.My beautiful and healthy daughters, Emily and Alexis
3.My incredible husband of 16 years, Rich, who is truly the best daddy in the world
4.My mother, step dad, brothers, sisters, in-laws, and all the other family members and friends all over the country and world.
5.The health of all my family members and especially for my mother-in-law who is a ALL/AML survivor x 3 years. Every day is a blessing.
6.Internet and the ability to stay in contact with my family through webcam
7.Being stationed at a relatively safe post
8.Comfortable living quarters
9.Running water
10.A bathroom "in" my living quarters
11.Great eating facility and gym on my post
12.My bicycle so I don't have to depend on the bus system on the post
13. Knowing I only have to spend one more Thanksgiving in Iraq
14. Freedom to vote
15. My fellow soldiers, most of whom are living in much more austere conditions and in more danger on a daily basis than I - Thank You for your service and sacrifices!
And, of course, having the ability to afford and go to Disney World yearly and to the disboards for just being another way of feeling like I am at "home."
Thank you!
