Thursday Thankful

2014-08-11 18.51.32 copy

It’s been awhile since I’ve done a Thursday Thankful list, and it’s always a good reminder to take a step back and find some gratitude in the big and little (and delicious!) things in life. As of late, I’ve been immensely thankful for the following:

Music Festivals: After a whirlwind of an Outside Lands, I was reminded of how much our souls shine in the presence of good music. At each festival I attend, I meet some seriously amazing people and form new connections in unexpected ways. I love the spontaneity of it, and I can only imagine what Burning Man is going to bring – oh yea, I’m going.

Beyoncé: Bow down.

Brunch: And even breakfast, for that matter.

Shark Week: Did you know that great white sharks eat 11 tons of food a year?

Rooftop Views: I’ve had quite of few of them this past several weeks, and there’s just something about looking down on a city that makes my heart lift up to it that much more.

Summer Produce: Mangoes!

Good Coffee: And better company.

Combining Friend Groups: Few things make me happier than when all my friends meet all my other friends. That’s how greatness happens.

Traveling: Austin, I’ll see you in September!

Rap-Themed Historical Painting T-Shirts: Need I continue?

My Readers: I’m getting cheesy and I don’t care, but y’all are pretty gouda  🙂

      Thank YOU for coming by! I can’t help it – I get a little fangirl crazy over Queen Bey, but she is just that good.
