Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. This time of year reminds me of all the things I'm thankful for. Obviously the biggies, like family, home, enough clothing, the faithfulness of God, etc. But all the other things, too.
things I'm thankful for:
my musical children
pumpkin recipes
the car we inherited from my grandma
allrecipes.com
a son that REALLY can cook [we're not talking just boxed mac & cheese, friends]
a hilarious beagle named CJ
a summer time veggie garden in my backyard
AND participating in a community garden
the magnolia tree Chip gave me one anniversary
my daughter's very accurate Russian accent
books by Lisa Samson
my Starbucks card
my Kitchenaid mixer and the sentimental story that goes with it
the piano in our living room that was old when my folks bought it in the '70s
hearing my son play jazz on said piano
the strong will of my daughter
free summer concerts at Ecton Park
