Happy Friday, Giving Thanks, and a Giveaway!

Happy Friday, everyone! This week has felt really long, so I'm excited the weekend is upon us! The past several weekends have been completely filled with plans, but this weekend my calendar is empty. And I couldn't be happier. I'm looking forward to relaxing, reading (have you joined #twookclub yet?), cooking, possibly some running, and of course that pesky homework.
November is typically a month for giving thanks. I've seen several bloggers and friends participating in "30 Days of Thanks", and it got me thinking about all the things I'm thankful for in my life. Including you! So as a thank you to all of you, I'm having a little giveaway. Here's what you get if you win:
Nail polish - Butter London's "Henley Regatta" - It's bright, it's sparkly, and perfect for the holiday season!
Starbucks Gift Card - So you can treat yoself to your favorite holiday beverage. In a red cup, of course.
Surprise goodies - That's all I'm gonna say.
All you have to do is leave a comment telling me one thing you're thankful for! Please make sure you provide some way for me to contact you, if your account doesn't already link to your e-mail address.
BONUS ENTRY
For one bonus entry, you can tweet about the giveaway. Please include my twitter handle, @SeattleStevie
Good luck! You have until next Friday at midnight to enter. Winner will be announced Saturday, November 12th.

Oooh, pick me, pick me! I'm thankful for so many things - a wonderful boyfriend,a supportive mother, a cute little city to live in, the Coast Guard that pays our rent, my snuggly kitty, my stable job. Shall I go on? I could also add some selfish things in there, like my Bakers boots, my snazzy iPhone & fun-size Butterfingers.
You know where to find me if I win! :)
All you had to say was Nail Polish! hahaha
There are way too many things I'm thankful for, but I think the past month has been so rich in creating new friendships that that is what I'm thankful for.
Also, that it's supposed to snow this weekend. So excited! :)
All my best!

I am thankful for everything - good health, family, friends, a wonderful home life, my animals [I still can't say fur baby]! :) That polish is so pretty!

I'm thankful for wonderful blogger/twitter friends like YOU! People who make me laugh, share openly, and are there to listen to you, no matter how crazy you feel. Hope we get to meet up IRL one day! :)
I'm so thankful for the chance to be back in school, exploring a city I love, and meeting new people (or getting to see old friends more)! There's a lot to be thankful for.
I'm thankful you're hosting a blog giveaway! ; )
But I'm also thankful for my job, and for my husband recently getting a job
I know this is cliche but I'm thankful for my family and for their unconditional love, for the fact that I know they'll always be there for me. This kind of love is exceptionally rare, at least from my experience :)

I want a package! I'm thankful for so many things...Hunger Games made me realize that ;)
Oh how fun! I'd actually been thinking about how content I am right now - I feel so lucky.
I'm thankful for my relationship with my bf. It's making me so happy by being both uneventful yet awesome.
I'm thankful for finding a company I really live working for.
And I'm thankful that I'm able to recognize how god mt life is :)
I am thankful for my babies. They are just the sweetest little things and I am enjoying experiencing the seasons with children. I think about everything differently now. I like this change in perspective- it makes me more reflective!

what a pretty color, I love it!
today, I am thankful for heavy cream for my tea, even though it isn't good for me, but so delicious!
I am very thankful for all of the amazing friends who have made these last few really difficult weeks oh-so-much better. And I am also very thankful for caffeine, without which I would have been zombie Joanna this last month.

I'm thankful for great friends (including you!) and the mackage :)
I have so much to be thankful for! Right now I'm especially thankful for my family's health. I think health is often taken for granted until you face some type of illness and remember how awful being sick really is.
Fun giveaway!
I'm thankful that even though I've gone MIA on blogging, I'm still close to a lot of the friends I have made in the blogging community.
And wine. Definately thankful for wine. As well as grateful for contests like this. You're awesome.
What an awesome giveaway!
This might sound cliche but right now I'm grateful for little moments. There's been a lot of "turbulence" in my life and in friends' lives recently but I've been able to laugh at little things and find joy in things like "red cup" and I'm EXTREMELY thankful for that.
I also tweeted about it!
What a fun giveaway, and a great idea! I love the idea of turning November into a month of being thankful. Today, I'm thankful for my cozy scarf, Real Simple magazine, and takeout Indian. Sometimes it really is the little things. So glad to have found your blog via Becky! @metropolis718
I am so thankful for the good in my life right now. Times are rough right now so it's good to remember the good.
I also tweeted about it!!! (@yesthatgirl)
Oooh, I love giveaways! :)
I'm thankful for pretty much everything. I'm very, very lucky in so many ways (great family, great boyfriend, great friends, job, independence, etc.) and I couldn't be more grateful.
I am thankful for technology - it has helped to keep me in touch with (and to meet!) so many amazing people!
I am thankful for good friends, old and new!
I'm thankful for the goodness in people.
I am Thankful for being able to spend the holidays with my wonderful family!
I'm so much more than thankful for dear friends online who are always judgment free and understanding, even if they disagree!
Also, I just did some shoes in pretty much that exact glitter color. I had to blend 4 colors to get it, but it was totes worth it!
You know how to find me!
I'm really thankful that I wasn't way more terribly injured when I got thrown off a horse this weekend, and that my sweet husband was there with me and here to take care of me now!

BTW, I tweeted your giveaway, too, Stevie.
That nail-polish is gorgeous! I'm really thankful for my friends and family. I've been going through a hard time but on the other side of that I can see that there is a lot of love in my life. I'm really, really thankful for that.
I'm doing the "month of thanks" thing too lol. I'm thankful for my husband, my understanding mother (when she wants to be), my puppy, I'm so so thankful for 2011... and a ton of other things!

What a wonderful giveaway! I'm thankful for the support my family gives me - they always have of course, but especially at this time: i was miserable at a job and rather than tell me to stick it out because of money, they let me leave it knowing the toll it was taking on me. Now, I'm unemployed but they're supporting me until I can get back on my feet. If that's not the unconditional love of a family, I don't know what is :)
Have a wonderful weekend!
Also tweeted here! http://twitter.com/#!/italylove19/status/135108184292597760
Ummm, this is like the coolest giveaway ever!
So, I'm so thankful for my girls. I know, big surprise, right? But seriously, I am thankful for them every second of the day.
I tweeted too. :)
I'm thankful for the opportunity to indulge in awesome nail polish & other pretty things! I realize that so many have so much less, and I am so thankful!
