1. I am thankful that it is not raining right now...its drizzly, but not raining.
2. I am thankful that Brianna does not have hand, foot and mouth disease (so far) and that she was able to go to mom's morning out this morning. Although, mom isn't getting much of a morning out with two other sick children at home!
3. I am thankful that Kinley only woke me up once last night...the motrin worked!!!
4. I am thankful that Nate is such a sweet little boy and wasn't too disappointed that he couldn't go to MMO at church this morning.
5. I am thankful for SONIC- medium vanilla diet dr. pepper, please! (BTW...they did not have Sonic in Alaska, so this means a whole lot to me)
6. I am thankful for good friends in a new place.
7. I am thankful for my FAMILY...all of you!!!
8. I am thankful for a Savior who continually convicts me of areas in my life that I need to work on.
9. I am thankful for Nathan and his job and his diligence to provide for our family. Not everyone has a dependable job these days.
10. I am thankful for an abundance of leftover food from our Sunday School party this week, so that I can share some with a family that really needs it.
What are you thankful for? I would love to hear from you!

Pictures!
Beth had herself a happy Birthday, complete with a Sooner game, an exclusive "all-by-yourself shopping trip" and some wonderful children who were extremely excited to light the candles and sing the Happy Birthday song!
SUPERMAN TO THE RESCUE! Nathan and his friend Luke were able to show off their superhero skills after a not seeing each other since we left Alaska in May.
What? Do I hear a schoolbus full of kids hanging off a bridge?? (Sometimes I really do think he believes he's Superman... it's a new phase for him)
Calling all Sooner fans! Idaho State didn't stand a chance.
Just lounging on the beach!
Here's a picture that would be a perfect desktop background. HAPPY DAY!
Nathan: Feather Mustache Man
Brianna's eyes... such a happy girl.
AAAUGH! What was that???
Kinley, the cute kid special
And, and artistic closeup of a butterfly we snapped while visiting Alabama. The lower wings look like a snakehead... A defensive posture, no doubt!Thursday, September 10, 2009
Thankful Thursday
It has been awhile since I have done this, but hopefully I get in the habit of expressing my thankfulness more often.
1. I am thankful for the Lord showing me how I can be a better wife and mom. I am also thankful for the time to study His Word! Sometimes that is not an easy thing for me to "find".
2. I am thankful for my husband who loves me so much and shows me that every day. He even planned a date night for us this week!!! He is also a wonderful father who LOVES spending time with his kids.
3. I am thankful for my three little munchkins who bring me much joy, laughter and yes, even frustration every day. :)
4. I am thankful for my new church family and the passion for lost souls that is evident in all of the different programs that they offer.
5. I am very, very thankful for mom's morning out at my church.
6. I am thankful that I got to go grocery shopping by myself this morning.
7. I am thankful for new life...a friend had a baby yesterday!
8. I am thankful for my grandmother. She has always been such a godly woman to look up to. She is failing in health now, and doesn't remember much and I honestly don't know how much longer she will live. But, she is an incredible woman and has been an example for all of her children and grandchildren. What a blessing!!
9. I am thankful for my father and the patience he has with his mom and the love that he (and his siblings) are showing her every day. It is taking a lot out of them, but they are doing everything that they can to care for her, and my grandfather, themselves.
10. I am thankful for my mom and her selflessness in all of the situation mentioned above. She gives up my dad every weekend, and helps take care of not only his parents, but her parents as well.
11. I am thankful that all of my siblings now have jobs. Praise the Lord!!!
12. I am thankful for another blogger friend reminding me to do this today. It really does renew your mind to express thankfulness for all God has done in your life.
Now, what are you thankful for...leave me a comment about it!!!
