November 19th. . .

Well, my post is a bit late but since i was at the World premiere of Anyone Accept David. . . i think it is understandable!

1. Mary-Kate
I'm so happy to have such a fun friend! I mean we both loved the color green before we even met. . . how cool is that? Thank you so much for your love and support of me. I am truly grateful for your friendship and i love all the fun times we have together!! Love you!

2. My cream heels
What can i say? Except that heels are fun and I'm glad that I'm a girl so i can wear them! ;-)

3. My church friends
There are too many of you mention by name, but you are such special people and I am blessed by your friendships. Sometimes it may be weeks before i talk to you and other times we get to talk all the time. . . never the less you are all very dear to me!

November 18th. . .

1. My ipod charger
I have been meaning to get an ipod wall charger for a while but i have been reluctant to spend the $30 dollars to get one from Apple. Today i found one at T.J. Max for only $10!! Yay!

2. Elizabeth
You are a true friend. I know i can count on you to be honest with me at all times and that is the key to maintaining a true friendship! I appreciate all you do for me and all your support! Your the best! Love you!

3. Simplicity
I love simple. Simple decisions. . . they are wonderful! I love it when my life is smooth and things are simple for a while! Ha, if only that would last! :-)

November 17th. . . . .

1. Imagination
Without imagination, the world would be a drag. In fact, it's imagination that produced this post. I'd have to say this is the most imaginative post of all, so far. [keep reading] Unfortunately this is also the most shallow post so far. :P I think this post is just for the sake of posting. Just a post for a post. But if I post a thousand posts, I could become a postman. (er, woman) Anyway, post posting posts about posts, are two more...

2. Hindsight
Not that I like missing it in the first place. But when everyone's standing around afterward, and I'm asking "What happened?" I like answers. :)

3. Competition
It's the spice of life. What makes the world go 'round. No competition, means no fun, and monopolies would spring up everywhere!

November 16th. . .

1. Nail polish
Life would be so boring if i didn't have bright colors to paint on my toes!

2. Ben
He is such a great guy! He is constantly giving of his time, money and love to those around him and I feel so blessed to have him as MY brother! Wow, i really am a lucky girl!! My mom and I couldn't get by without him! I love you big brother!!

3. Snow
Ah, there is nothing better than a snowy day. Of course it gets even better when you are having a snowy day in Colorado. . . I appreciate the snow 10 times more when i'm carving through it down a mountain side, or landing on my head in a terrain park! :-) Snow makes the cold so much fun!!

November 15th. . .

1. Girl time
After spending a great evening with my wonderful friends, there is no question in my mind that i am blessed by knowing such sweet girls! It was wonderful to spend time with just the "girls!" It is so relaxing and refreshing! In fact, so much so that i think we should do it more often. . .like every other month at my place for "Girl Time." What do you think? :-)

2. Courtney
You are one special girl and i love you so much! I am constantly blessed by the thoughtfulness you bring to our friendship. When i look at you i see such a beautiful girl, someone who's truly a nice person and someone i wish i was more like!

3. My puppy dogs
Well, being this animal lover that i am, this is an obvious one for me. I'm happy to have them around. . . after all you can tell them anything and they don't judge you! ;-)

November 14th. . .
Well, here it is almost Saturday but i'm going to do this post before tomorrow! I keep cutting it a bit close, but so far i'm keeping my commitment!

1. America
I feel very blessed to live in this country. I know there are lots of frustrations about the election results but I am trying to focus on the fact that God is ultimately the one in control. Showing respect for our nation's leaders is a command of God and it is important to remember to pray for our President elect. While this country is straying far from it's roots, it is still a great land and I am proud to be an American!

2. My sister Megan
She is an amazing person! Megan constantly amazes me with her patience and godly character. She is truly one of the most beautiful people i know, and when i look at her i see someone i want to be. I love you, Meg!

3. Airplanes
Obviously, I am thankful for these because that is how i'm getting to Europe!! I love to travel and it is made so much easier by the invention of the Wright brothers. I could certainly fly a lot more than i get too!

November 13th. . . . .
I know I shouldn't be up this late, but I've made a commitment to post every day and I'm sticking to it! So, with only 10 minutes left, here are some more things I'm thankful for:

1. The Beauty of Nature
Every season brings it blessings! There are many people that would describe fall as "dark" or "dreary". As a matter of fact, I remember overhearing the choir practice a song that used those very words. However, when approaching fall, the thoughts that fill my mind are those of comfort... the wonderful colors of changing leaves, crisp autumn air with it's distinct smell, and fireplaces being lit with a warm glow that's been absent all too long.

2. Technology
Who would have dreamed technology would develop this far? Things that were unthinkable, even for science-fiction films 20 years ago, are now common place in the hands of American consumers. Technology allows people like me to keep in touch with friends and family, far and near, at the touch of a button, or click of the mouse.

3. The Time Period I Live In
Although closely related to the last point, I think this should be a separate thanks. (if for no other reason, I'm running out of time before midnight! :) There are many things that make now the time to live. Technology :), safety, and social communication are among the top of the list.
