I was inspired by a friend to write a blog about thankfulness. As we all know Thanksgiving is right around the corner and being thankful seems to be the topic of conversation at so many dinner tables on that blessed day. As I lie awake with my mind racing about everything from what I need at the grocery store to thinking about Heather's wedding plans, I can't help but be thankful for...
People who I love that love me back
sisters
ALL my family (even those cousins and the aunt who aren't technically blood but more family than I could have ever hoped for)
the most amazing parents that God blessed me with for 23 years
graduate school, even though it's hard
new friends
old friends
cell phones and text messaging
churches who broadcast online for those days we can't get ourselves out of bed
Taylor Swift songs that can always make me smile, cry, and laugh all at the same time
inspirational quotes
Cyndi's constant love, support, thoughtfulness, teaching, inspiration, kindness, and willingness to go to Walmart with me even if its the middle of the night and too cold for bugs to survive :)
gas prices going down
google from my cell, who needs phonebooks?
waking up to the smell of waffles and bacon, well maybe when I get home?
Gracie, Lane, Caden, and all the beautiful babies to come!
forgiveness
secrets between friends
the way Christmas lights make everyhouse look like a fairy tale
pictures, i love to document memories-even if they aren't my own
falling asleep on the phone
fancy dresses and the way they transform every girl into a princess
and I am thankful for where I am because it is where God has asked me to be.

What else would you like besides waffles and bacon? I'm going to the commissary today or tomorrow and want to make sure my baby has what she wants to eat!
