Today I am thankful... {for florida} & thanksgiving plans

Today I am thankful for Florida. 

Okay, not really the state of Florida but the opportunity to be here. 

I complain about it a lot because I really miss home

by home I mean Utah and my family. 

However, I am really grateful for the path that led us to Florida. 

I am thankful for the University seeing how incredible my sweet husband is

and offering him a fabulous place to be educated. 

I am thankful for the way we have to rely on each other so much more

now that we don't have our families a few miles away. 

It is going to be a long four years but I am thankful for this opportunity. 

And let's be real... I am thankful for the continual sunshine here too!

Thanks to everyone with your input on our Thanksgiving plans.

I found another fabulous groupon deal at a hotel in Jacksonville. 

So tomorrow morning we are headed out to the beach 

and then spending the night at a hotel.

I am so excited to take a bath at the hotel- our apt doesn't have a tub hahaha

Our sweet friends invited us to a Thanksgiving potluck meal with a bunch of people

so we will be coming back Thursday for that.

And yes, we will be sneaking in some black friday shopping too.

(one of my facebook friends posted a picture of tents lined up at the local best buy..

really? what is this world coming to? I love Black Friday but really?)

Yep, we fit everything in and it was only $70 for the hotel. 

Fabulous. 

I hope you all have a fantastic Thanksgiving...

if you need me, this is where I will be
