thankful thursday {link up}

{Link up your own Thankful Thursday post below}

This Thursday I am thankful for:

1) Pumpkin spice cookies. I forgot how absolutely amazing these super simple cookies were. Incredibly tasty and honestly the easiest cookies ever. I mean, two ingredients people. And they make your house smell amazing.


2) Unexpected income. We have had to tighten up our budget recently... but I am so, so grateful how God provides in unexpected ways. I used to make jewelry and we own a pretty hefty supply of beads and various jewelry supplies... including a fairly decent stock of sterling silver. As it turns out, sterling silver is worth a pretty penny these days:)


3) Christmas magazines. Don't hate me... but I am totally guilty of celebrating Christmas long before Thanksgiving... and once I see the Christmas magazines on the racks and the commercials on tv, I feel justified in my pre-Christmas celebration. (jingle bells, jingle bells...)



So, what are you thankful for this week? Grab the Thankful Thursday button from the right sidebar and link up your own Thankful Thursday post below...
