here are a few things i've been thankful for in these first few days of 2013:
1. bowl season.
if we didn't watch every single bowl game, i think we were pretty close. i have to admit most of the games were less than great this year, and maybe by the 17th game in only a handful of days i was ready for a chick flick, but bowl season really is fun. i mostly love that football games are such an easy way to get a group of people to hang out. exhibit a: tricia's fiesta bowl fiesta.
2. passion 2013 live stream.
i'm so thankful that passion allows those of us that can't actually be there to get a glimpse into the experience. i think i caught about 4 or 5 of the 7 sessions via live stream. good people, great teaching, incredible things happening toward ending slavery around the world.
3. yummy stocking stuffers.
mom is the BEST at stockings. she always finds the most unique and thoughtful little things. this stuff, for example, is one of the highlights of my stocking each year. i'm second-guessing my decision to share it with the husband this year. it's just SO good. thanks, santa!
4. super carter.
our friends, the mosiers (you may remember them from our tornado slumber party in the spring?), have a brand new adorable little girl, cambrie mae, which brings their kid count to 3 -- all under the age of 4. needless to say, they kinda have their hands full. we've been trying to help them out when we can -- i'm not sure how much help we've actually been, but we've sure enjoyed the extra mosier time. i mean, how could we not love hanging out with super carter??
5. gratitude journal.
i know i just posted about the joy dare a couple days ago, so maybe this is redundant, but i really am loving it. it's forcing me to recognize the little things as gifts -- things that i probably would've never stopped to think about and be thankful for.
