Another Thanksgiving

Ah! Another Thanksgiving  has come and gone. So many times we take things for granted. We always think the grass is greener on the other side; mostly because its so much easier to see our grass as brown when we are standing on top of it. I thank God everyday for his favor, grace and mercy. This year I am especially thankful for:

Family

Friends

My amazing support system

School (gasp) 

Cubby ;)

Being healthy

and SLEEP (which is a a pretty big deal) 

It always seems like we spend so much time preparing for the actually holiday, that when it finally gets here, the actual day goes by super fast! Our day was pretty laid back. Keith and I hung out with his side of the family and at many points throughout the day we contemplated swinging by a store or two 'really quick'. Not gonna lie it was VERY tempting, especially since the stores and outlets we wanted to visit were literally 5 minutes from home! Santa had several things on his list that were on sale at places like Target and Best buy. But we showed some restraint and got up at a normal time, like normal people, on Friday. We surely did pay for not getting up and going out on the way back home on Thursday but in my opinion, family time is a little more important than a Keurig ;). I only have 2 more weeks left until this crazy semester is over and I can. not. wait. It's gonna be epic. :)
