Today is the day guys. The day Chris and I have been waiting for our whole lives. That may be an exaggeration. The day we've been waiting for for a really long time? Any hoo. Trader Joe's opens today! Today! Trader Joe's opens today! Can you tell I'm a bit excited? Our plans for dinner tonight includes a bunch of snacky stuff from TJ's. Also, I'm gonna drink a whole bottle of Two Buck Chuck all by myself. Because I can. I am thankful we now live in a town that has our favorite grocery store.  Yesterday, I got word that a cupcake truck would be stopping by work. It's like an ice cream truck, but for cupcakes. And this totally happened! She was down to one flavor by the time she reached us, but I didn't care. Cherry Mash sounded pretty darn good to me. I bought one for me and one for Chris and I even held off eating mine until we could eat them together. Willpower. Some times, I's gots it. I am thankful I live in a town where a cupcake truck stops by my work.

Well, it seems I'm thankful we made the decision to move to this cool new place. I, of course, am very thankful for friends who love us so much and let us crash at their places. I am thankful for the rain and the cooler temperatures. I am thankful for my family. And I am thankful for Chris, who I can share cupcakes with and maybe a sip of my Two Buck Chuck.
