Thankful

I know yesterday was Thanksgiving, but I still want to do a "Thankful List." This is just for me, I don't know what James is thankful for. Probably some of the same things. :)

A: Apples. They keep me healthy. And they're yummy with cheese. Or peanut butter.

B:Blue. The color of the sky in summer.

C: Creativity. James has so much and it will do him well in his career.

D: Dogs. One of the dogs on the ranch had puppies and they are SOOOO stinking cute!! I want one, but my apartment complex says no. Also, my dog Tiger passed away this year, which was sad. He was such a good dog for our family.

E:Emery, our friends' little girl. She is so precious, and such fun to be around. James and I love her like a niece. Oh and we love Nick and Carly a lot, too. :)

F: Friends!! and Family!!! :) Where would we be without them? Especially this year - with the wedding and all. We wouldn't have been able to do it without our fabulous, wonderful, awesome friends and family.

G: Good movies. I love movies.

H: Hands. I know that's kind of weird. But our hands can do so many things. Help and handle and work and play and everything.

I: Ice cream sandwiches. Yum.

J: James, of course! I wouldn't be who I am today without him. He makes me a better person. I know we've only been married for 3 weeks, but I don't know what I would do without him. He's such a wonderful part of my life and I love him a lot.

K: Kids. My students. I love them kind of a lot. Even if sometimes they drive me crazy.

L: Love. It's a wonderful thing. Friend love, family love, romantic love. love love love. <3

M: Mothers. They are wonderful, wonderful inventions. I love my mother so much, and James' mother as well. They are just fabulous women.

N: Nichols family!! They rock. 'Nuff said.

O: Okay. It's a fun word. Say it.

P: Pearls. I have a pretty pearl necklace I got for my birthday and I love it.

Q: Quiet. I don't get much of it, but I sure do love my quiet time.

R: Rad Christmas decorations. Seriously, ours are awesome. I love my house.

S: School. I'm so grateful to have a full time teaching position.

T: Tan. What I got in Mexico, a little bit. :)

U: Us. :)

V:I've got nothing for this letter. It's weird.

W: Wiggle songs. What would I do in kindergarten without them?

X: X-rays. So Dr. Hansen knew what was wrong with my back.

Y: Yellow. It's such a pretty, happy, fun, vibrant color. It's my favorite.

Z: Zoos. I love to visit the zoo. I'm like a little kid. :)

Sorry this is long. But it feels good to be grateful.
