Good Times with the Letter G


I'm playing along with Kat's letter meme. She assigned me letter G and now I have to come up with 10 things I am thankful for that start with G.

1. Big G and Little G, my two very most favorite boys in the whole wide world. Both their middle names are G, just the letter.


2. And my GIRLS.


3. Get-togethers with dear friends from high school.


4. The Gospel. I don't post a lot about my spiritual side. I tend to keep those kinds of things private. But my religion is part of who I am and I am VERY thankful for it. It's my beliefs that pull me through those dark times.


5. Living near Grandparents is great!



6. Gifts, giving and getting (that should totally count for 3)


7. Okay, this is starting to get difficult. Let's see...there's grapes, gravy, goodness, gold (Ooo, I do like gold!), g-strings (Uh, not so much. Actually I think they're hideous.), guinea pig....hey guinea pig. I do love my little Mimzy pet. Okay, #7 my guinea pig.

8. Golden arches. Oh come on, don't pretend like you aren't thankful for their drive thru too.

9. Gum, I love to chew gum. I've been through an Extra phase, a Trident phase, and now I'm on an Orbitz Sweet Mint kick.

10. And lastly, Guitar Hero. It entertains guests so well and wearing a guitar while you bake pie just looks cool. :)

So now if you'd like to play, leave me a comment telling me so, and I'll get you a letter. It's actually really fun so I hope a lot of you will play! :)

Love your Christmasy blog. Your tree looks gorgeous! I'm sorry you're not feeling well still, but it's no wonder when you can multi-task like that! Guitar Hero and Pie. LOL!
I'll take a letter...sounds fun.
P.S. Our little visitor check out last night and I slept so well. All that cleaning was worth it!

I love your G's! I gave Katie G, too. She just published her list yesterday.

And those Golden arches prompted a hormonal moment for her, too. They gave her a tiny Sprite instead of a medium one. And she was so mad that they messed up her order that she refused to eat anything :-)

ROCK ON, Elena. You are so hardcore!
