I am thankful for...

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I feel a list of all the things I am thankful for is a perfect blog topic.

-My family: Although we aren't perfect and we don't always get along, I am still incredibly thankful for my family. My parents are loving and supporting and have providing a stable home for my siblings and I. I have always been close to my sister and have always learned from her example. Over the last few years, I've grown much closer to my brothers and am so happy they brought my sisters-in-law into our family. Now that we're older and we don't all live at home together anymore, I am very thankful for the times when we can all be together, however seldom they may be now.

-My friends: My friends are my source of sanity. They are always there to give me advice, listen to me vent, and just relax with in the hot tub on a cold winter night.

-Jordan: Jordan is probably my favorite person in the world. He can always make me smile, and I am very fortunate to have him in my life.

-Good health: I am thankful myself and all of my loved ones enjoyed a year of good health. There is nothing more devastating to a family than an illness or death, and we were very fortunate to not have experienced either.

-Opportunity: I am thankful that I live in a situation in which I can get a college education. I am also thankful I have the intelligence and skills to succeed in college.

-Not-sucky-roommate: I am thankful I didn't get an annoying or loud or hostile or obnoxious or mean or crazy or smelly roommate :)
