We had Thanksgiving at my parent's house this year. It was a nice, quiet affair - good food and great company! It's hard to believe that it's the holiday season again. I've started putting up my Christmas decorations and it feels like I just took them down! But, I love Thanksgiving and Christmas time.
Lately I've been thinking of all the things I don't have or things I want to have and I need to be more thankful for the things I do have. So, here are some things I'm thankful for (in no particular order):
- My wonderful, funny, loving, supportive, creative, smart, hard-working, handsome husband.
- My family - all of them: parents, brother, sister, husband, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, mom and dad-in-law, sister-in-laws, brother-in-laws, nephews, nieces, etc. You are all so great - I LOVE YOU!
- My membership in the church, and the knowledge and blessings it has brought to my life.
- My health.
- My job. I love going to work and that's such a blessing. I hope I'm a positive influence in the lives of my students, because they are in mine.
- My cute little condo!
- The country I live in and the freedoms I enjoy.
- My friends, who I should probably keep in touch with better.

Love the pics! I bet it was nice to have a quiet Thanksgiving! Ours was kind of chaotic!
I love that you put what you are thankful for. I need to do the same thing because I tend to dwell to much on the negative sometimes. Thanks for the inspiration!
Love this!!! We definately do have a lot to be grateful for!
