For that, I'm Thankful

Thanksgiving is probably my favorite holiday. I just love spending time with family, eating great food, and kicking off the holiday season.

There is so much I'm thankful for and I'm grateful for where this past year has taken me. If you would've asked me a year ago that I would be where I am now, I would have never believed it.

Things I am thankful for:

1. My health and the health of my family and friends.
2. Getting engaged to my best friend and getting to spend the rest of our lives together.
3. Being fortunate enough to have traveled to more countries this past year and experience different cultures.
4. Starting my blog back up again within the past few months has been such a huge blessing. I'm so glad that I did!
5. Just having the life that I do in general. Every day I wake up, I'm so grateful for everything that I have and how life has treated me.

I'm excited for this Thanksgiving -- especially because my brother, my sister, her husband, and their two dogs, and Roberto and I are all spending the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving at my parents -- just like the good old days. I'm just looking forward to us all waking up together, watching the parade, helping my mom prep, and hanging out together before the rest of the family comes over.

I'm SO ready to feast on some amazing food! This year I'm in charge of the green bean casserole. One of my favorites! Let's hope I can make it as good as my mom.

 SWEATER / BOOTS / SIMILAR PURSE

I plan on wearing an oversized sweater so I can stuff my face, yet still be comfy and look cute and put together. Oversized sweaters -- just another thing I'm thankful for this year! (And yes, Reagan approves!)

Although I'm grateful each day for all the things life has granted me, Thanksgiving is the perfect time to reflect a little extra. What all are you thankful for?
