I know it's a day late, but I've been staying up way too late laughing with siblings, so you'll have to take it on a lazy Friday morning instead. Here's what I'm thankful for as I've been back in Wisconsin for an early Christmas celebration with my family.
1. Scarves, sweaters, boots and 12 whole days to wear cute, layered, winter outfits
2. Another Packer win on a snowy memorable Sunday night with my dad
3. Christmas shopping with my mom
4. Time with this lady witnessing history and catching up
5. Lenci's italian beef bombers, Infusino's pizza, and Wilson's coffee
6. Dinner with my sister and sister-in-laws - all 4 of us in the same place at the same time
7. My Grandma and her generous, hilarious self
8. Giggly nieces who are all hopped up on goofball, and a bonus tiny, snuggly, grunty one for her
first Christmas
9. Mr. Ladd joining me in Wisconsin tomorrow. I miss his face.
10. Dinner and Christmas tea at David and Emily's cozy apartment
11. Lunch with my mom's best friend Trish, who is family and one of my favorite people to talk to
12. Lot's of extra time for new traditions, honest conversations, and belly laughing as a family
