Give thanks.

I wanted to change things up a little bit.  when I was laying in my bed a few nights ago I began compiling a list of things I was thankful for. This list will grow, but I needed to associate them with pictures somehow. so this list is a little odd-- beware!

1. I am thankful for my computer. i love it. lovelovelovelove. It allows me to enhance my creativity. 

2. I found this tree when I went on a walk with a friend. I am thankful for little reminders that I am loved

3. SNOW

4. My cousin Kyle. My cousin plays tennis for the University of Washington, and I love to watch him play. He constantly inspires me to try hard in whatever I do, and he is definitely someone I look up to. 

5. Baby Chloe. Chloe reminds me all the time that life is more than the material things. She is 8 months old, and does not have one single care in the world.

6. Humility. Odd thing to be thankful for? yes. good thinkg to be thankful for? yes. I am thankful for humility, because humility is what keeps me in check. In my everyday life, I am faced with the option to glorify others, and lift other people up, and that is what i love to do. 

7: Erin.  Meet Er, she is my best friend, and my soul sister. 

8: 

"Give thanks to the lord for HE is good. his love endures forever"

psalm 107:1

 

9: My escape through daily life. My music. 

10: Green grass. I love Washington

11: My social kills. I am so thankful I have the gift of being able to talk with others. I have learned so many important life lessons by talking to strangers.

12. Orca books and Jodi Picoult

13. Oscar. (he is mentioned in another post) He is fantastic. Despite his horrible living circumstance, he is awesome, and inspires me to be thankful for everything I have. 

14. Ever heard of the term, somewhere over the rainbow? rainbows remind me of the everlasting truth, there is always something over that rainbow. 

15. impromptu trips to the Oregon coast.  

16. let me introduce you to skid row. Skid Row is an area that is home to thousands of homeless people, who live in innercity Los Angeles, California. Skid Row has the largest concentration of homeless in the country: between 8,000 and 11,000 people live there under appalling conditions. 

I am thankful I have a roof over my head.

17. I am thankful for adventure.

18. I am thankful for my TOMS. one for one.

19.I am thankful for this group of ladies, who will not let guys objectify them. love you girls!
