30 days of Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving may be over, but it's still November, and I'm still thankful. Our Christmas tree went up the day after I said it wouldn't be up for another week, and we are pretty much full speed ahead for Christmas, but I still find myself noticing the simple things in my day, that maybe i would sometimes otherwise disregard, that make me grateful.

 

this new thing where we pretty much constantly have diet coke, dr pepper and sprite stocked in the fridge

a husband who i can kiss whenever i feel like it

when cooper gets sleepy and just wants to snuggle with his mama (that's me)

the space heater and candy stash at my desk at work

the mindless entertainment that is instagram

dog parks. cooper makes so many friends at dog parks. he loves other dogs

devin's honest fashion advise and opinions (it's awesome to have a husband that will give me advice since i don't live with girls anymore)

puppy eyes

my cocoa-motion and stephen's hot chocolate collection (half my pantry...)

the challenges and frustrations of rock climbing

cooper's 2 best friends, duke and addie, who live 2 doors down from us (and always happen to take potty breaks at the same time - so they get to play a lot!)

devin's relationship with my family (especially my dad. they're best friends)

kisses on the forehead from devin

taking home the old People magazines from the coffee table at work when we get a new one in the mail

things that make me feel pretty

fuzzy blankets

snow in the mountains while the leaves are still bright red and orange

my hands

sleeping with the window open, waking up to the cold, but still in my warm bed

mornings that aren't rushed

the way my husband was raised

good hair days

my wedding ring

seat heaters in our mazda

700 square feet to call home

waffles for dinner

wool socks for cold toes

having all our yard work done by HOA

that look devin gives me

spending the end of the day curled up on the couch with my husband and puppy, watching a tv show we are way too invested in, with a giant bowl of muddy buddies. happy as ever.
