Happy Thanksgiving!

As I look around today, I realize how many wonderful things I have to be thankful for. In a world that is filled with such violence and strife, I count myself one lucky lady to be nestled in such a cozy existence and living a life where I often take for granted that which some view as a tremendous blessing. That being said, I don't feel that I adequately thank God for the many blessings that have been handed to me, so TODAY I want to take a moment and reflect on a few of the things that make this life so incredible! Hopefully, on the next day that finds me a little less than satisfied, this list can serve as a reminder of everything I have to be thankful for!

~ My amazing family who never fails to make me laugh & is always there when I need them
~ A group of friends who have become like family
~ Tucker, my oh-so-sweet puppy dog
~ A closet full of GREAT shoes :)
~ Health & Happiness
~ Living close enough to the ocean that I can enjoy the sun & sand during the day and the beautiful stars at night
~ That most delicious fried turkey that dad spent the morning preparing
~ A home
~ The view I have on my commute to and from work
~ The snooze button
~ Freedom
~ The scent of fresh lilies stirring throughout my apartment
~ Happy Hour Margaritas
~ A box full of old pictures that always makes me smile
~ Good music
~ Wagon Wheel's fried squash ;)
~ The changing of the leaves in Fall
~ All of my wonderful memories, and the anticipation of what's to come
~ Egyptian Cotton Sheets (they really are the greatest thing)
~ Babies laughter
~ And most importantly - LIFE!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU AND YOURS!!!
