30 days of Thankfulness: day 28


Today I'm thankful for a productive morning getting housework done, a boyfriend willing to explain math problems during his last little bit of time before heading back to college, enjoying an afternoon together, a beautiful blue-white speckled sky, and getting back into Irish step!!! Ach, how I missed that! Or maybe I should say....ache XD Although I'm not as sore as I thought I might be :~)

30 days of Thankfulness: day 27


Today I am thankful for a day with John and his family, having dinner with my family at his house with his, spending time with his sister, playing card games and a board game, laughing with and at one another, finishing the 2nd part of a Star Trek episode, heading home to decorate the tree with my family, and finding a snowman to be John's ornament on the tree to hang next to mine! Can you guess who is who? 😉😊

30 days of Thankfulness: day 26


Today I am thankful for a spot waiting for the tree to arrive, excited little girls telling about their muddy adventures to fetch it, & preparing for our favorite time of year at home and at work!

30 days of Thankfulness: day 25


Today I am thankful for a day off, perusing the antique stores with Mom, smuggling presents into the house undetected, a boyfriend willing to babysit, meeting new friends, running into old ones, seeing a chandelier and wondering if the Phantom is near, the beautiful Christmas tree lighting in the city, and ending the night with a smile!

30 days of Thankfulness: day 24

Happy Thanksgiving! Today I'm thankful for a Savior whose birth we celebrate in just a few weeks. Some people don't like to celebrate Christmas until after Thanksgiving, but I do, for this reason: what better way to herald the birth of our Lord than to start of with praise and thanksgiving! 😊 Today and the days leading up to Christmas, I encourage you to enter the season with a thankful heart, because God chose to send his Son to be our Savior! Happy Thanksgiving, and in a way, Merry Merry Christmas!

30 days of Thankfulness: day 23

30 days of Thankfulness: day 22

Today I am thankful for a baby who suits the hat and blankets I made for her, seeing old friends, Christmas shopping with John, and playing a game with Alexa! Afterwards I beat her xD by one point!

30 days of Thankfulness: day 21


Today I am thankful for a snow day of sorts, 18+ inches of snow, being able to enjoy it while shoveling, the weather holding off so John could come over after work, burying under a blanket to work on Christmas presents and letters, and wishing for Christmas since it certainly looks like it now! ;)

30 days of Thankfulness: day 20


Today I'm thankful for weather holding off long enough to hangout with Elijah and John for lunch, watching Elijah make a stop-motion video, spending the afternoon inside from the blizzard while watching Christmas movies, and ending the night with a blustery cold walk in the beautiful snow!!!!! :~D

30 days of Thankfulness: day 19


Today I'm thankful for a beautiful warm day at work, being able to help out an extra hour, ice cream, a bouquet from a sweet boyfriend, and ending the night with a movie!
