A lot of people like to say what they're thankful for every Thanksgiving. I, unfortunately, have never bothered to follow that tradition, but this year, a lot of things have changed in my heart and life, and I have a lot to be thankful for...
• A nice parade to watch.
• A delicious meal to enjoy with my family.
• Flickr ;-)
• The fact that God gave me a passion for music / songwriting.
• Christian artists who have been serious about living what they believe and striving to pass that desire on to others (the Newsboys, Rebecca St. James, BarlowGirl, etc.)
• A wonderful, amazing church with wonderful, amazing people.
• The strong friendships God has blessed me with in (and outside of) my church.
• The husband God has blessed my sister with this month and the life they have together!
• My sweet, hilarious nieces!
• My amazing parents and the relationships I have with them.
• The Bible...God's instruction book for our lives, without which I would be lost.
• My Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who died for me and set me free. Lord, I strive every day to live my life for you and to be more like you. Thank you for saving me.

We are very blessed, aren't we? I enjoyed our celebration today. One of the things I'm most thankful for in my life is *you*. :)
