Thankful.

We love Thanksgiving, so much. But who doesn't love a day full of family and food? This year we spent our Thanksgiving feast with my fam, and desert and shopping with the Reynolds. 

This year, I'm thankful for so many things. I'm thankful for my ginormous family, and for the fact that we managed to get organized for this picture in under 45 mins.


I'm thankful for my 7 aunts and incredible grandma, who are all amazing cooks and know how to prepare large quantities of yummy food.


I'm thankful for my mom, and for her walking me step-by-step over the phone through making my very first homemade pies.


I'm thankful for the many love-filled emails and texts that I received from friends throughout the day yesterday.


I'm thankful for my messy kitchen and sink full of dirty dishes, because it means a stomach and fridge stuffed with good food. 


I'm thankful for my handsome husband and for the fact that he loves me just as much as I love him.


I'm thankful for our free Christmas tree, and for the fact that almost all of the lights are working.


I'm thankful for my in-laws and that they love a good sale just as much as I do, and that I got to spend a straight 12 hours with them today shopping our little hearts out.

I'm thankful for the full load of homework that I've been putting off all week, because it means that I have the opportunity to get an education.

I'm thankful that Justin and I both have good jobs, and that we were able to take a few days off from those jobs to enjoy the holiday.

I'm thankful for my life, and that it is filled with so many blessings. We have incredible families and friends, and a life overflowing with love. 

And I'm thankful for our warm home, and that I can be cuddled up on the couch enjoying a night in with my hubby. Happy Thanksgiving everyone :)
