Thankfulness

I've decided to come out of blogging retirement! Why? Because it's that time of year where I'm excited about everything! Other blogs I'm following are listing what they are thankful for throughout November. I have decided to copy them (I hope you guys don't mind) and follow their lead. This time of year is just too exciting to not write about.

Here it goes. . .

1. I am thankful for the soup we are going to eat for dinner tonight. I just tried out a new recipe--carrot squash soup. It looks amazing and smells even better!

2. I am thankful for my amazing husband. He takes such great care of me and is the person who I always want to be with.

3. I am thankful for Luther College! I just arrived home from a meeting at my former school and am so proud of what it stands for. I love running into Luther alum because we all identify with that school and get excited when we run into other Luther grads.

4. I am thankful for such amazing friends--you know who you are (you people in Minnesota and NYC and on the West Coast and in Germany). I wish you would live closer to me! It sure does stink to have amazing friends that live so far away.

5. I am thankful for my new blender (an early Christmas gift). It is beautiful orange and works sooooo well! I think I'll be making a Bailey's shake tonight which I'm watching the Packers game. Yay for appliances that make life easier!

6. I am thankful for the Christmas at Luther music that is playing in the background. Christmas at Luther 2005 happens to be my favorite year. What do you think, AJ?

Happy Fall, Everyone!!
