Today on Thanksgiving I am thankful for 12 things! (There are more than 12, but I am going to list 12!)

1. I am thankful that I had multiple jobs this summer that have allowed me to live a less stressful life this semester!

3. I am thankful to be in a 4 year nursing program.
4. I am thankful to be doing well in said nursing program.
5. I am more than thankful to be 1.5 years away from graduating!
6. I am thankful that I have been blessed with such supportive family near my school.
7. I am thankful to be able to spend time with my youngest cousins, they always make me smile.
8. I am thankful to have made friends who care about me for just being me!

10. I am thankful that I have a wonderful best friend in California and some in Indiana that have helped me plan a big surprise!
11. I am thankful that I have a wonderful little brother (who is really not so little) who has helped me plan this surprise!
12. I am most especially thankful that I was able to pull off the biggest surprise of my life! I was able to surprise both of my parents and come HOME for Thanksgiving.

I hope that this Thanksgiving finds you all well and comfortable at home! This was a premeditated post therefore the next post I put up will have pictures from my time at home. I’m eager to tell the story of leaving for home and coming back to school!
