Many thanks...

It's that time of year...the time that we start reflecting on all of the wonderful blessings in our lives, and all of the things that we have to be thankful for. Here are just a few...

*Matt. I could never ask for a better man to call my husband. He is all that I ever imagined I could want, and much, much more.

*Our daughter. Life has never been so meaningful and fulfilling, and I thank God for her everyday.

*Our families. We are so lucky to have such amazing people to call family. We can always count on them for love, comfort, support, and dinner!

*Our home. It's not quite done yet, but the thought of having a place to call our own again is soooo exciting!

*Friends. We don't see them as much as we'd like to anymore, but we know they're there! Good friends are always there...even when you can't talk or visit cuz you have a baby and have no time Ü

*Sunny days. I'm looking outside right now and I can't help but be thankful for this weather! It's so beautiful...I love, love, love cold, sunny days Ü

*Hot chocolate! To whoever invented this simple, yet delicious beverage...Thank You! I am completely addicted to it.

*Target. I know, I know. But honestly, this is one of my very favorite places in the world! I have to be thankful for it! And they should be thankful for me and my shopping habit, too Ü

*The Boppy. Making the many hours spent breastfeeding so much more comfortable.

*Maternity leave. What a relief to not have to worry about getting off work for the Holidays!

*Favorite TV Shows. Isn't it just a good day when you know your favorite show's gonna be on?! My personal favorites are Grey's Anatomy, Friday Night Lights, Law & Order: SVU, and The Hills.

*Football season. "It's the most wonderful time of the year!"

*Christmas music! I look forward to it all year! One more day and it's on!

Tomorrow...remember to give thanks for all of the wonderful things in your life, and remember to pray for those less fortunate, who may not have much to be thankful for. Most of all, eat too much, watch a lot of football, and have a very Happy Thanksgiving!!
