My Favorite Time of the Year!

October has finally arrived and that means that it is officially my favorite time of the year! There are three holidays within the next three months which, for me, means endless smiles! I don't know about you guys but I absolutely love Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas! I think that it's a time that most everyone enjoys, which makes this time all the more beautiful.

 

Now that Kris and I live up north, we get to experience the changing of the seasons. Our days are filled with apple cider, changing leaves and cool temperatures. It's, in my opinion, the most beautiful time of the year and Kris and I love to share it together. I love all of the wonderful traditions that Kris and I get to start and all of the time that we get to spend with our friends and family. A lot of wonderful things are happening in our lives and it just makes this time of year even better, if that were possible!

I really try to be a positive person and spread positivity to the people in my life. So when this time of year comes around, it makes me so happy because all of the people around me are sharing in happiness and positivity. I'm going to make the best of these next few months and I hope you will too!

Feeling Thankful

Of course, you guys all know that Thanksgiving is upon us! It's just three days away and I'm so ready for everything, and by everything, I mean yummy food!

But Thanksgiving is always a reflective time, when people really sit down and think about what it is in life that they're grateful for. And as a person who follows quite a few blogs, I've been seeing a lot of new posts about it. So, in the Thanksgiving/blogging spirit, I figured that I'd do one myself!

What am I thankful for? 

1. My family- Of course, right? I love them to pieces and I'm very thankful for the blessed life that I've had with them. I'm also thankful that Kristopher is now officially a part of my family.

2. My health- When teams of doctors tell you that you'll be sick for the rest of your life and then a medical miracle happens, which results in you getting your health back, you learn to really appreciate your health.

3. Coffee- I seriously don't know how I'd function in life without this stuff.

4. Disney trips- They help me forget about how lonely I feel while Kristopher is away and allow me to create lasting memories with my family before I move. I'm also pretty thankful for the smiles that they leave on my face every single time I go.

5. Blogger- I am so grateful that I get to share my thoughts and experiences with the world via Blogger. And it's free, which I LOVE! Blogging is my new favorite hobby!

6. Books- There is nothing like curling up with a good book, some coffee and some imagination. It's my favorite relaxation technique. I'm also thankful that I get to write my own books.

7. Army life- Although it's the hardest thing that I've ever had to go through, I am so thankful that I'm an army wife. And I'm so grateful that one day I'll be able to be a part of the wonderful adventure that is army life.

I am thankful for everything in my life but if I listed it all, I'd be here all day!

What are you all thankful for?
