1. Friends: I think Clarence said it best, "No man is a failure who has friends." I am so thankful for the friends I have had throughout my life. I am thankful for the friends I have now. Where would any of us be without our friends? Thank you to all of my friends who have been there for me throughout the years.
2. Good neighbors: I am one of those people who rarely knows my neighbors but recently I have been aware of how nice it is to have good neighbors. When I decided to stay in Kentucky while Meric is deployed all of my neighbors at the camp ground let me know that they would be here for me. It is nice to have people around me that I can go to if ever I need anything. I love that we have such great neighbors!
3. Changing leaves: I am so thankful for all the fall colors. It just isn't quite fall without changing leaves. The world is an amazingly beautiful place.
4. Foreman grill: This thankful definitely falls under my "I am lazy" and "hate to turn on my oven in the summer" thankfuls. It is so easy to pull out the Forman to quickly make hamburgers or chicken. The one we have has changeable plates so I can use it to make waffles or bake cookies.
5. Nectar chocolate protein powder: Meric and I make protein shakes a lot. I am thankful that there are yummy protein powders to chose from. This particular one also works well for hot chocolate.
6. Converse all-stars: I have loved Converse shoes since I was in high school. They come in so many colors and are a great way to express yourself.
7. Garbage cans with lids: I am so thankful that my dogs can't get into the garbage. I have no space to put the garbage in a cabinet and garbage cans with lids make it so I don't have to worry about the dogs being tempted by anything I throw away.
8. Baked chips: I like chips ok but they are always so greasy. Baked chips are a delicious and healthy alternative. I am also thankful that there are so many baked chip varieties now.
9. Roaster pan: I love my roaster pan and so thankful I have it. Past Thanksgivings my roaster pan has made it so that my oven isn't tied up all day and I can get everything cooked in time for dinner. Now that we live in the trailer I don't have a very large oven so the roaster pan is essential for making turkey. Also I have never had a dry or under done turkey with the roaster pan. I am also going to experiment with making cheesecake in it!
10. Digital cameras: I love technology and how easy it makes things. I remember traveling to England with a regular camera and it wasn't until we got home and developed the film that we knew if we got good pictures or not. Now you can just take a picture and know right away if it is a good one or not.
