Thankful Thursday

...I think today is the perfect day to stop and think about all I have to be thankful for.

I'm thankful for a wonderful husband who works hard so that we can live the life that we have. I'm thankful for a beautiful house to raise our children in. I'm so thankful for 2 healthy, but sometimes sassy little boys. They are the reason I wake up every morning (otherwise my kitchen would be a disaster if I didn't)

I'm thankful for my mom, who no matter what is going on in her day will stop and listen to me vent, then give it to me for venting over the small day to day stuff. I'm thankful for a cool dad, who I miss too much and his wonderful wife who I know takes excellent care of him. Darn, they live too stinking far away!! :-( I'm thankful for my grandma (and those of you who have heard the stories, I'm sure are scratching their heads right about now)....no matter all the craziness, drama and restraining orders she has put upon me, I'm still thankful for her hugs and crazy stories.

I'm thankful for the country I live in, for all the opportunities available and our freedom. I'm thankful for a long weekend to celebrate Independents day with friends and family, swimming and eating all day long.

I'm thankful for all the wonderful things I have to be thankful for (did that make sense)
