Thankfulness Thursday

Welcome to my last post of the series Thankfulness Thursday.

Oh, AND HAPPY THANKSIGIVING YA'LL.

I'm thankful for....

God.

He's so good to me. He gives me so much I do not deserve. 

My family.

I love laughing with them. They're the best. 

My siblings.

I'm so glad I can have a good relationship with my siblings. Even when I'm mad at them, it only lasts for about 5 minutes because I'm so sad without them. 

My friendzies.

I'm so thankful for friends to play games with. To do school with. Seriously, every Thursday after church history all my friends bolt outside, get the football out, and start playing. It's so fun to have friends to play with and tell funny stories with. 

My internet friends.

It's so awesome to have friends all over the world who love Jesus. It's so awesome to get encouragement from friends all around the world. Everyone needs a blog guys. 

My ability to be active.

Just a couple days ago I was watching a movie about someone who loved football (and was famous for it) but soon later he got cancer in his leg and had to amputate it. After watching that movie I just thanked God for my body. For the ability to run. For the ability to be breathing without even thinking about it. Some people don't have two legs like I do. I can't even imagine what that'd be like. So, I'm so thankful for my healthy body. 

My camera.

It's really made me realize how awesome my God is. 

My clothes.

I'm also thankful for clothes. I realize that whenever I'm cold, I simply get a sweater on. Whenever I need a nicer outfit for church, I walk in my room and find plenty of nice clothes. Not a lot of people have that. Some people are cold because they have nothing but a dirty shirt.

My church. 

I've realized that in the past year we've been at my church, we've done so much with them. We see about three times a week. I've went to a summer camp with them. A mission trip with them. I've done a Sunday service with them. It's awesome to have these godly people in my life. And especially my pastors. They've taught be so much. 

Good books.

Not only am I thankful for the Bible, but also other books too. After summer, I suddenly just had a lose of interest for fiction. I'm sure I read it again, but right now I'm just reading Christian books. It's awesome to get book recommendations from my pastor and get to read them. And then of course I'm thankful for the Bible because it encourages me every day!!   

Of course there's so much more. 

THANK YOU

For reading. 

For commenting. 

For being friend with me.

Photography Contest Changes // Currently

HIIIII GUYS

First, before I say anything I want to say that my first week of photography contest did not go very well. I'm going to extend my first week to one more week which means your entry of leaves will be due on the 27th. Also, I've heard a lot of you guys say you just don't have time. Well if you don't...that's okay!! You can enter a photo you took a long time ago. That's fine!! :) It'd mean so much if you entered, even if you don't have much experience!!

Also, I have a little prize for the winners too. If you win, you can guest post on my blog!! And stay tuned, I also might think of another exciting, but easy prize for you winners. If you have any suggestions drop me one in the comment box.

So now, I'm going to do a currently post.

CURRENTLY

Dreaming... of the day after Thanksgiving where we'll all put up our Christmas tree, listen to Christmas music, put up the Christmas lights, and start the Christmas season!!

Thinking...of Christmas presents. They just keep coming guys. It's a bigggg list.

Ordering... a free 8x11 calendar from Shutterfly. I'm so happy guys, I got a free calendar. I got to make my own photos for every month. It was defiantly a great project to do!!

Reading... God is the Gospel by John Piper. So far, it's a REALLY good book.

Loving... how it's so cold. I can finally wear warm boot, warm jackets, warm sweaters, everything FALLY. I'm in love with the cold guys!!

Listening... to football sport commentators. I'm a big football fan. Seahawks all the way!! Anywho, me and Danny had a big fight last night about who's the football goo roo in the family. I think I proved myself to be the one. BUT STILL. I'm listening and learning. Being a sports commentator is my dream :P

Getting... excited about Thanksgiving. This year we're making all the food and bringing it over to our great Grandma's house. I'm so excited. Every one is making two special dishes. I'm making pumpkin pie and rolls :)

So that's my currently post for you.

Wow I haven't done of those in a while.
