Thankful...

I thought it would be fun to do a list of some random/fun things I'm thankful for... even though it's after Thanksgiving, technically it's still Thanksgiving week. I had every intention of posting this on Thanksgiving day, but time just got away from me between: baking, cooking, visiting with family, and watching football (more like yelling at the TV).

I don't want you to be mistaken. I'm crazy thankful for Jesus, His Word, my man, family (including the dogs), my church, my blog readers/blog friends, and people I get to do life with, but this time around I thought we could have some randomness thrown into the mix.

Thankful "Fun" List!
1. Oh my gracious - Hobby Lobby! At this point you know I love crafts, making goodness, and decorating anything. Therefore, Hobby Lobby is my place.














2. My Burts Bees tinted Lip Shimmer and my Sephora Lip Gloss. Blessed Assurance, yes!
























3. My Southern Living magazine subscription. My sweet Grandaddy gives all the ladies in my family a subscription every year - and I tell you each month I can't wait to read and go through mine. I'm not a big magazine reader besides Southern Living and Travel and Leisure, but oh how I love the decorating tips, travel advice, and recipes contained in the monthly 100+ page magazine.


















I love, love, love my scentsy. If you have not experienced the joy of owning one of these then stop reading and go now. I do need to clarify something. Just because I love Scentsy does not in any way take away my love for an actual candle. There is just something about the warmth and richness only a candle can bring. BUT few of my favs about scentsy: the fact I just can turn on my scentsy and not worry about anything if I step out to the store, the amazing scents they have you can switch out, and the best one - you don't have that horrible wick smell to take away all the goodness in the air after you turn it off.

















I know I talked about her not long ago, so I won't be lengthy about her again. But I do love my planner... and all things by erin condren!








6. Seasonal decorations. I love breaking out seasonal decor for each holiday. If you have been around the blog for a while, you already know this but for those new friends - I just have a blast with it.
(Our Christmas Tree - that is already up)


















7. Accessories in general. I couldn't have a more obvious love language than accessories. It's completely lame and maybe I should consider starting a club. Kidding. Kinda. But from hats, scarves, jackets, to earrings, purses, and you name it, I love to spruce up any outfit with accessories. I'm so thankful for them!















8. Books! I'm just thankful for books in general. Apparently I'm old school by liking to actually HOLD a book. I love the idea and concept of having all my books on a iPad or what-not, but to me there is just something about holding the actual book. Save the bookstores! Laughing. But with that I just love the library. When I really started getting into God's Word and doing a lot of research I just fell in love reading commentaries and such (and have been hooked ever since).











9. HAIR PRODUCT. Let me tell ya... if this hair of mine didn't have product in it, we would definitley be in serious trouble. In Texas we have major humidity which creates a very challenging time for hair, but since I have long hair, it just becomes bigger than most. Praise Jesus for product: Big Sexy Hair: Root Pump Plus, Hair Spray, Moroccain Oil, and Bumble and Bumble's Defrizz



























The most addicting website for anything and everything. Love the ideas it brings together for: cooking, parties, decorating seasonally or everyday. Just a great site. Completely addicted!
