30 more creative things to be thankful for this November

Ok it is November and we all know what that means right?  30 days of no shaving and 30 days of “I am thankful for…” on Facebook.  They all start the same, I am thankful for Jesus, I am thankful for my amazing husband, my crazy children, my parents, my job yada, yada, yada.  I would certainly hope you are thankful for those things every day and every month.  But what do I know?  Maybe you are an ungrateful maroon, although I doubt it.  So here is my list of things I am grateful for that maybe I don’t think of everyday.
