Thankful

So in honor of Thanksgiving(and Meghan who is making me write this) I started thinking of what I'm thankful for this month...so here it goes:

1. A large hot mug of coffee tinted the perfect brown color with yummy vanilla caramel creamer.

2. Calm, quiet mornings that give me an opportunity to wake up slowly and enjoy this coffee.

3. My car..even though Emily claims its a Mary Kay car....I happen to like the color a lot!..which is a pretty brown by the way. I feel my car and I have made good improvements on our bonding this month..we're getting closer.

4. Burrito Bandito Fridays with Meghan! I'm so thankful for this friendship and the great conversations we have over our bottle of Tapatio:) And now that I'm not on a time crunch its even better!



5. My unemployment checks..they help me pay my rent.

6. The amazing women in my lifegroups! You girls are amazing! Watching you grow together, pray together, struggle through things together! The Lord continues to blow me away with how he's working in you and I'm always so blessed when the night is through. Thank you for sharing your lives with me.

7. The girl's house. Thank you Emily, Danielle, and Rachel for opening up your home to me and treating me like the 4th roommate that I am:). You guys are amazing friends....letting me curl up on my comfy chair as you make me my rasberry tea have gotten me through many hard days. I always feel so loved...:)....p.s. I hope you do put up Christmas lights this year..I mean the whole block is doing it!-hahaha

8. For being in Redding...(yes this is a hard one but when it comes down to it..yes, I'm thankful for it). I love the mountains, the sunsets, the sky, the warm weather, my amazing church, and the amazing people that I've gotten know that live here. How do I even list them all without leaving anyone out(if i've had at least one good conversation with you , prayed with you, or have given you at least two hugs then count yourself on this list)I love you all!

9. The crazy hard place that the Lord has me in right now. Trust, Faith, Hope, Love, Thankfulness, Praise, Joy.....just a little of what I'm learning:)
