Thanksgiving Thoughts

Hello, friends! I hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving. My drive home yesterday was eventful, to say the least, but Kensi and I did get here in one piece. All is well! We haven't celebrated yet- tomorrow, we're going to Marion to celebrate Thanksgiving with my brother, sister-in-law, and nephew. In case you missed that, I get to see my nephew tomorrow. Did I mention that I get to see my nephew tomorrow?

Anyway, I'm going to do the stereotypical Thanksgiving thing and make a list of what I'm thankful for. It's now the 27th, so obviously I need to list 27 things. Here we go!

1. My nephew! (Let's face it, you saw that coming)
2. My family
3. My friends
4. My dog
5. Messiah, my home church
6. University Lutheran in Tallahassee
7. Redeemer, my new church!
8. My call to Redeemer
9. Damayan, the garden I volunteered at in Tallahassee
10. All of the various pastors I've worked with I'm various places
11. My new house
12. Drake women's basketball (which has won its first four games!)
13. The Oklahoma City Thunder, which I'm becoming a fan of
14. My phone, because it makes things so much easier
15. The forgiveness of Christ (what could be more significant?)
16. Books, in general
17. Television, in general (especially the new show Blindspot which is becoming my favorite)
18. Into the Woods, which kept me entertained on my trip yesterday
19. The kind people who helped me on my trip yesterday
20. Katie's Pantry, my favorite restaurant in Enid
21. My baby cousin Emma
22. My DCE study
23. My missionary and church worker friends
24. Holidays!
25. My short work commute
26. My commissioning/installation day
27. The Concordia (Wisconsin, duh)

There you have it. Happy Thanksgiving!
