I have so much to be thankful for -- a healthy family, a warm home, yummy food and, most of all, My Little Leighton. My Sweet Dad (MSD) loves Thanksgiving. It's his favourite holiday. He spends days planning and preparing the most perfect feast. If I had to choose only one meal to eat for the rest of my life, it would be MSD's Turkey Day Extravaganza.
In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I wanted to share a fun list of the seemingly small, yet wonderful, things I'm thankful for right at this moment.
1. A visit from ELC. They're always too short. I had my kitchen and living room painted about a week ago, and she's helped me rearrange, revamp and redecorate. She has the best ideas.
2. The Kroger Mini Cinnamon Rolls sitting on my kitchen counter. You can't imagine the amount of willpower it's taking to not eat at least 5 of them rightthissecond.
3. The Starbucks Latte that will accompany said cinnamon rolls in the morning.
4. Christmas music. Honestly, I could listen to it all year. It genuinely makes my spirits bright.
5. Warm scarves. A big, ol' cold front visited Texas this week. It has been CHILLY.
6. The Little People Nativity Set on my coffee table. LL ADORES this. She loves to point out Baby Jesus and his "Mama" and "Dada," and she happily totes the cute little sheep around the house.
7. Free shipping. After LL's arrival, the majority of my shopping became "online." I get super excited when a store offers free shipping.
8. Pictures. I love looking through old pictures, and I love our (first ever!) family photos we had taken recently. I can't wait to share a few of my favourites with y'all.
9. Ribbon. I think I "officially" collect ribbon.
Happy (early) Turkey Day! Bring on the pie!
