giving thanks


im up early baking & chopping away in the kitchen all in preparation for our family's thanksgiving. it'll be nice this year only having one thanksgiving (boyfriend & his dad are attending ours) and that we can celebrate all together. Mom and I are going a little overboard but what's thanksgiving without the leftovers (smile).

today, I am especially thankful for (in no particular order)

  • us + wizzy

  • my wonderful family

  • warm laundry & fresh bedsheets

  • cameras & photographs

  • couch covers

  • holiday candles

  • my des moines lovelies, my best friends

  • late night happy hours & 2 hour phone convos

  • snow

  • our little apartment

  • education

  • a capella music, christmas music, all music

  • football

  • pie, cake & cupcakes

  • networking & meeting so many intelligent, hard-working & forward thinking people

  • cuddling, real kisses & wiz-kisses

  • the beautiful city we get to live in (mpls love)

  • good health, no cavities & contact lenses

  • thunderstorms & pretty clouds

  • tall boots & cute flats

  • a clean kitchen

  • Target

  • hairties for wiz to play with

  • crab rangoons & pho

  • sprawling on the bed (starfish!)

  • love, the start of my career & our future


so happy thanksgiving to you & your loved ones.
