Thankgiving: My top ten reasons to be thankful!

As Thanksgiving rolls around, I would like to take some time to share with all of you some reasons why I am thankful.

• 1. First of all, I am thankful for my amazing God. He blesses me everyday in every aspect of my life. He is truly the only reason I have so many things to be thankful for! 

• 2. I am thankful for my loving parents. Their faith and their love have guided me through all of my life. They always push me to achieve my goals and encourage me to become anything I want to be. They are the best parents anyone could ever ask for! 

• 3. I am so thankful for my sister, although she is family, she is my best friend. We are crazy together and take some pretty interesting pictures, but I love her! 

• 4. I am thankful for the country I live in, for the veterans that fought for our freedom, and for our leaders that give all they have into making us a stronger nation. 

• 5. I am thankful for all of my friends! They are all quite spectacular in each of their own special ways! :)

• 6. I am also thankful for my lifegroup girls. While they are all my friends, they have a different special place in my heart..:)

• 7. I am thankful for my crazy personality that allows to make some amazing friends! 

• 8. I am thankful for my love of fashion inspiration from the past, especially Audrey Hepburn. She was such an amazing women, and I love learning about her! 

 

• 9. I am thankful for my obsession with reading. I wound defiantly not be the girl I am today if I didn't have my books...:)

• 10. I am thankful for all of my music. I am constantly listening to music, and I don't think i could function without it...

Happy Thanksgiving! Love, Grace Elizabeth Nickols...xoxo 

A Charmed Life by Jenny B. Jones

What can I tell you about this series except that it is amazing...pure genius. You must read it.

A Charmed Life is a collection of three novels; So Not Happening, I'm So Sure, and So Over My Head. 

I first picked up So Not Happening at the Springfield Library's Book Sale (which I always go to with my best friend Hannah...it is kind of a tradition) and, to be honest I had no clue what it was about...I just thought the pig on the cover was cute. Plus, it was only 25 cents and I never pass up a good deal. :)

---------------------------------------------------

Isabella Kirkwood (better known as Bella) is not too thrilled when her mom marries a factory manager from a small town in Oklahoma. She is especially not excited about leaving her posh life of designer clothes, fancy cars, and her hot boyfriend in New York City. She now goes to a school were people don't even know the difference between Prada and Gucci..eww. When she thinks things couldn't get any worse she finds out Hunter (the hot boyfriend from NYC) is cheating on her with none other than her best friend. She decides to put all her anger aside and join the school's newspaper...where she meets Mr. Luke Sullivian.

Luke Sullivian. Oh Luke, can I marry you? He’s the most perfect guy I have ever read. So chivalrous and smart, and even though he likes Bella, he is not going to put up with her games. I love how dedicated he is, and certainly, I love his preppy style. Oh, and I can't forget, he looks like this...

Now picture Bella..(better yet know as me)...

Now picture them together...

It is such a perfect match...I can't even begin to explain. I have read this book so many times and each time I still get goosebumps anytime Bella and Luke are together..:) 

Okay, back to the book. Bella joins the newspaper and she gets put with a story about the football team. The story is dangerous, mysterious..and very suspenseful. Many times does she almost die..don't worry though, she doesn't (their are three books..duh). 

If you're not pulled in already let me just tell you that this book is a Christian book. She has Christian principles, their are not any cuss words, and she treats everyone with respect. 

I would defiantly recommend reading this book! You'll love it! 

Love, Grace Elizabeth Nickols..xoxo 

Have A Laugh

Hey Guys! 

Normally I blog about some kind of review...fashion, books, movies ect., but today I thought I would change it up a little and blog about everything funny. So here we go!

First off though I would like to tell you all about a conversation I had at the dinner table last night with my mom, dad and I. I told them all about my plans for this blog post and I asked their opinion. My mom replied with the normal,"Grace, whatever you do will be great." I expected the same response from my dad...but no.. He just told me to blog about my face..because that was the funnest thing out their. Thanks dad..So here is my face! 

To be completely fair..this was at Halloween so I have an excuse for wearing mouse ears and weird glasses :)

Okay...if you have a Facebook/Pinterest you have probably seen these super funny little ecards floating around. Here are some of my favorites! 

Okay now on to some cheesy jokes. Here are the cheesiest of them all...that sounded better in my head.. 

• What do you eat when you're about to die? A life saver!
• Why did Cinderella get kicked off of the softball team? Because she ran away from the ball!
• What did zero say to eight? Nice belt!
• What did the big bucket say to the little bucket? You look a little pail! 
• How does and octopus go to war? Well-armed! 
• Why couldn't Dracula's wife go to sleep? Because of his coffin! 

Now here are some funny pictures posted by a girl on Tumblr (follow me at Everythinglovelyandvintage.tumblr.com) called Teenager Posts. She writes all about what teens are really thinking. :D

 

Here are some pictures I just couldn't resist posting..;)

I hope you all enjoyed this post and got a laugh! Comment and tell me what you thought! Love, Grace Elizabeth Nickols..xoxo
