Thankful List One

I love Thanksgiving. It's right under Christmas in my book of favorites.

I love that there is a holiday that's only purpose is to reflect and be grateful for what we have. (See last year's rant here.)
Sure, I LOVE the food too... (Like, REALLY love the food... a lot.)

Anyway being thankful is something I need to work more on year-round, but for now-- I'll practice my love of list-making for this great season. (See 2008's list here.) Since I'm not disciplined enough to do a daily thankful post, I'll try to throw a few down when I can.

We'll see how it goes.

Husband
Blaine rocks my entire universe. I am so blessed to call him mine.

Proactiv
I dealt with acne for waaay too long. Thank you, Proactiv for allowing me to look people in the eye without embarrassment.

My Couch
(Optimus)
I would live on my big couch if I could.

Mexican Food
I looovvve me some good Mexican.

Yo-Gabba-Gabba

Thank you, Nick Jr. for giving me something other than Mickey's Clubhouse to entertain my kid with.

Contacts
As much as I hate dealing with contacts, I hate glasses so much more. Bless you, soft-lens contacts.

TV
I am no sports fan, I hate to run, I don't scrapbook, I don't have time for movie-watching like I used to, and reading only entertains one at a time. I watch TV. I love TV. There. I said it.

Sisters
(Yes, this includes sisters-in-law)
There's nothing like a sister. I am so lucky to have sisters to share my victories, my sorrows, my fears, and all my stories with. Sisters are one of my biggest and best blessings. They are my best friends and my greatest cheerleaders. I cannot say enough about sisters.

That's good for now... until next time.

I'm so going to try proactiv! Since having Sloan, I swear I can't keep my face clear for more then 2 minutes before I have another breakout!

Great list of things to be thankful for.

Yo-gabba-gabba is quite possibly my best babysitter!

I so love that we both love TV so much. Makes me happy. Love your list and now I should maybe make my kids watch yo gabba gabba (my only interaction with the show comes from the soup).

Ditto on the TV. As much as I hate to admit it, I love me some good TV. What are you watching lately?
