The week of Thanksgiving brings me such joy I cannot get any other time of the year. However, as being a college student with the anticipation of Thanksgiving makes it so much more exciting. Here are eight things I am super thankful for as Thanksgiving is just around the corner.
1. Mom, mom, mom, mommy. Dad, dad, dad, daddy.
I am more than thrilled to be able to use these words constantly for the next week, as there will actually be someone there to answer me. Can't wait to be with my two favorite people in the world.
2. Food, food, and more food.
Oh the joy wonderful food brings me, but it makes me appreciate it so much more since being in college. I can tell you one thing, college food has NOTHING on my Granny's home cooking.
3. Bouta' shop til' I drop.
Black Friday brings me such happiness. For me, it isn't about the deals and bargains, but nothing makes me happier than standing in long lines with my favorite people.
4. Friendsgiving.![]()
Absolutely cannot wait to enjoy a wonderful meal with all of my best friends. For the first time in months, we will all be in the same place at the same time.
5. Football.
Thanksgiving weekend is THE weekend for college football. ROLL TIDE ROLL!
6. My bed, which is not lofted.
Oh hi, bed. I love you, bed. I took you for granted, bed. You are the best bed ever. I will appreciate you more now, bed.
7. Bubble-bath time.
Yay for actually being able to take a long, hot, bubble-bath. For a week, I will get to shrivel in a hot bath, instead of using a shower I have to share with at least a dozen other girls.
8. FAMILY.
There are not enough words to explain how much I have missed my incredible family. I cannot wait to be around the people I love the most, and remember just how blessed I am.
Take a moment and remember just how many things you have to be thankful for. It's the little things.
