Thankful Thursday

December 12, 2013 By: Sarah Leff

Hello! Hope you all are having a great week so far. It’s been very chilly here [yay], but no more ice storms, which is good, I suppose. Seeing as it is Thursday, I thought I would do a quick Thankful Thursday post – it’s been a little while since my last one, and there have definitely been some things to be thankful for over the past few weeks ☺

5. Spending a long Thanksgiving weekend in Florida with my family. I was expecting to see my parents, brother and grandma, but was completely surprised to see my aunt and uncle, who traveled all the way from New Zealand to spend the holiday with us! Best surprise ever. It was so great to spend time with family!

So…it’s been a couple weeks since my last Thankful Thursday post, so I thought I would bring it back this week! It’s always a good reminder, at least for me, to remember to be thankful for the little things God is doing in my life instead of just watching and waiting on the big things to unfold. He is doing something new and good every single day – even if it feels monotonous at the time, it’s important to remember the little things.

5. Awesome family. My sister in law in getting married this weekend, and I am so incredibly excited for her and her soon-to-be husband. I wish we lived closer so I could have helped more with the planning, but I know everything will come together perfectly. It will be nice to see family again, something I definitely miss in living so far away from everyone.

Happy Thankful Thursday!

Hope you all are having a wonderful week so far. Can’t believe it’s already Thursday again! Anyways, I’ll just get right down to it – here are the top five things I am thankful for this week – feel free to add your thankfuls in the comments below 🙂

5. So, I’m totally aware that I’ve been saying this almost EVERY week since the middle of October, but I’m so very thankful for cooler weather! This morning when I walked out of my apartment, it was 40 degrees – and I was just giddy with excitement. Cool weather makes me feel alive. Just wished that it snowed more frequently here – I am itching for a good ski weekend. Hopefully we’ll get a trip to New Mexico in later this winter.

Sadly, this is not Texas. It is beautiful Michigan.

Hello! Hope you all are having a great week so far. Can’t believe that tomorrow is the first day of November…I think my mind is still stuck back in September somewhere.

Has anyone heard of and/or participated in NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) before? It’s basically a challenge that takes place during the month of November, in which the participants try to finish writing a novel in 30 days. Sounds pretty intense to me. I’ve been toying with the idea of giving it a go, but I’m just not sure I should commit to that – not sure I’m quite at that stage yet. I have some vague ideas floating around in my head, but I haven’t really done much real, tangible planning. Anyways, seeing as tomorrow is the first day of the challenge, I was just wondering if anyone else was doing it, or had done it in the past.

Well, seeing as it is Thursday, I thought I would share another list of thankfuls from the week. Feel free to add the things you are thankful for in the comments below, and lets be grateful for what the Lord is doing in our lives together!

5. The ever-adorable Mr. Samson! I know, I know, I take more pictures of my cat than any person ever really should, but he’s just so cute! Lately, he’s been doing this thing where he sits in the sink and stares at the faucet. Then, when someone turns it on, he immediately sticks his head underneath it, and plays with the stream of water. So incredibly odd, I tell you.

He even brought Mouse-kin with him…

Thankful Thursday!

Wow. I seriously can’t believe that it’s already Thursday again. Where is the time going?? Also, we’re going to hit November next week, which is another CRAZY thought. November 1st is officially the day, in keeping with tradition, that my mom and I both begin listening to Christmas music – and I’m getting pretty excited about that!

Anyways, I thought I would reflect back on the week and share a few things that I am thankful for. I like the idea of “Thankful Thursday’s” – it’s good accountability for me to remember the many blessings God has placed in my life. So, without further ado, here is my list of thankfuls for the week…

5. Texas. Yes, there are times when I don’t really like it. There are times when I feel incredibly homesick, and the only thing I want in the whole world is to just go home and see my family. And there are times when I become extremely frustrated with the local weather patterns [read: heat waves are horrible, and I seriously miss the snow]. But, overall, Texas is a great place to be. The people are great, the weather is decent [at least right now] and the community is amazing. Also, the State Fair is pretty cool too.

And honestly, who couldn’t love Big Tex?
