Sunday nights

Normally, Sunday nights are a bummer. I would say this goes across the board for most people, kids and adults alike. Because with Monday morning comes school or work and 5 long days you have to get through before you can sleep in again. However, this particular Sunday night, I feel so excited for the coming week. Here's why...

Monday: my Global and Urban Ministry class, which I enjoy. And then in my history class, we're watching a movie. Easy peasy.

Tuesday: Argumentation class, but I did my final debate last week so all I have to do is sit and watch other people do it. And breath multiple sighs of relief that I'm done.

Wednesday: All my classes are cancelled :) LAZY DAY! So I can do anything. I'll probably sleep in, maybe read a little Redeeming Love (which I started again tonight, very intentionally because I knew I would get sucked in and this week, I actually have time to get sucked in). Wednesday night, the roomies are going to a Thanksgiving service at church, which I think will be great. Spending the evening praising God for all his blessings. Sounds so sweet :)

Thursday: THANKSGIVING!!! Do I really need to say more? Katie and I bought groceries yesterday, and ever since, I have just been craving Thanksgiving dinner. Turkey, mashed potatoes, green beans, stuffing, yams...oh man. I can't wait. I can't wait.

Friday: Recoup after an insane amount of food, maybe do a little Black Friday shopping? Not sure. Friday also marks the day that I'm allowed to decorate the house for Christmas!!! I can put out the Christmas lights, play Christmas music...it's going to be fantastic. And I get to spend Friday night with Hilary, Melissa, and Angie, three dear friends from South Africa!!! I absolutely cannot wait to see these girls. Being with anyone from SA feels like family, and I am just so excited to hang out and talk with them. Soooo so so excited :)

Saturday: Katie and I want to venture somewhere to find snow!!!! You can see the mountains from our house, and they are just covered in it! It's too tempting to ignore, so hopefully we'll find somewhere good!

See what I mean? With a week like that, Sunday nights aren't that bad...
