Days 28-30

I am thankful for...

Awesome weather for traveling for Thanksgiving and a sleepy boy who slept the whole way to my parent's house from Cannon Falls!

My NEW Mary Kay Team Member! I am thankful for a company that gives us the opportunity to make extra income while making new friends, enjoying time with family and putting God first!

30 days full of things to be thankful for!

*Writing for 30 days about what I am thankful for really helps me remember how truly blessed I am! Thank you God for everything you have given me!

November 27, 2010

Days 23-27

I am thankful for...

Caffeine...to help me stay awake.

My birthday...yep it sounds selfish...but hey it's a day were people go above and beyond for me and make me feel so special. Plus I get tons of FREE stuff!

Thanksgiving...a time to be thankful and eat lots of great food, while visiting with lots of family.

Computers...it gives me a way to communicate with friends and family who are not close by. Just a few examples...I have a friend in Ecuador I can email and get her Missionary updates. Elijah Skypes his grandparents and uncle.

Black Friday...but not really for the deals (I mean that's great also)...more for the fact that it is a tradition my sister, brother and I have done for 3 years. We enjoy our tradition and this year reminisced on the way home about our old homes. Good bonding time!

Days 20-22

I am thankful for...

Cheap gym memberships that allow me to workout (which I have not done in a long time...obviously) and stay within our budget!

My baby brother, Leighton, who turned 19 on Sunday! I feel like he helped prepare me to be a good, protective mom...because I am very protective of him! And yes Leighton, I always will be! :) Love you!



Coupons. I get a coupon high when I save money! I am grateful that stores have coupons for us to save money on the things we need!! (**Side Note: I got a 10lb Turkey for $4.21 with a coupon)

November 19, 2010

Days 18 and 19

I am thankful for a husband who is willing to get up at 5am with me when I have to feed our son! I am thankful that he lets me go back to bed while he stays up with him until he is ready for the next feeding at 6-630am.

I am thankful for Fridays! Josh has Fridays off and lately we spend them as a family. I am thankful for Family Fridays!

November 17, 2010

Day 17

On Day 17 I am thankful for MOPS. I am thankful for my MOPS table! I am thankful for the relationships I am building with these women. It is great to have a new set of women to build relationships with and be able to go to when I have questions about mommyhood!

November 16, 2010

Days 14-16

I am thankful for...

the relationships I still have with three amazing college friends! (Yes I still have relationship with more than three...but these three are extra special). I will forever cherish these relationships. We have seen each other through tears, joy, and laughter. We have lived together, played together, and prayed together! I am thankful for Bekah, Jen and Michelle!



laughter...and the joy it brings to ones hear. I love laughing and I love hearing others laugh. I love the little cooing laughter that comes from Elijah! I love laughing over a funny movie, a good joke, and a good time.

love...the love Josh and I have after 5 years of marriage. The love we have for Elijah. The love between our family members and friends! Most important the love that God has for us all.
