I'm thankful for Fridays and blog hops!

Book Blogger Hop
Today's Blog Hop question is:
"Since Thanksgiving is coming up next week, let's use this week's Hop to share what we are most thankful for and what our holiday traditions are!"

I am thankful... 
  1. that my Dad is recovering from his open heart surgery and seems to be on the road to restored health.
  2. for my husband of 28 years.  He is truly my best friend.
  3. that I live in an area with fabulous libraries that provide so many resources to its citizens, especially during this bad economic time for so many people. I love reading books I don't have to pay for.
  4. for a warm home and a good job.
  5. for my daughters and my many friends.
  6. that I can sleep in tomorrow! 
A few highlights/traditions for Thanksgiving week:
  1. College-aged daughter to come home on Tuesday.
  2. Hubby and I will shop for food bargains to pop into the freezer since we won't be cooking at home this year.
  3. Church service Wednesday night.  Thankfulness to God for His bounty in our lives.
  4. Travel to Oregon to join my parents and sister and her family for Thanksgiving dinner.
  5. Overeat.
  6. Friday.  Get up early for store bargains then go to the Oregon v Arizona football game at Autzen Stadium in Eugene.  Go Ducks!
What are you thankful for and what will you be doing this Thanksgiving holiday?
