Thankful Thursday (Turkey Day)

Today is a great day to reflect and be grateful for everything God has done and is doing in our lives.  And a great opportunity to thank Him for the people He has placed in our lives, both family and friends.  I personally am learning the art of being thankful {basically stopping long enough to reflect is a good start...you can pay me later for that expert advice}

ATTENTION....this will be the start of a sappy "I'm Thankful for Post"...all funnies aside...

I truly am GRATEFUL for: 

My relationship with Jesus.  

My hubby, Jon...he is my rock and is constantly challenging me to be a better me {a surprise to some...this can definitely rub me the wrong way...HA..but I'm still grateful}

My 3 crazy kiddos...Max, Lyrik, and Jayda - they bring LIFE to the house

My Momma & Jeremy, Dad & Rasa, Archie & Sheila

{they know me the best, and still choose to love me anyway - this alone enhances the gratefulness DRAMATICALLY}

My Grandpa & Grandma AKA Pops & Tink - solid influences in my life and FUN

My SEESTERS & BRODERS

Brianna & Ben

Haley

Cody

Lexy & Lydia

Brock & Ang

Alisha & Josh

And without my sisters and brothers - I would NOT have the cutest and most loving, adorable nieces and nephews - they are way cooler than yours...but we won't go there :-)

1 Thessalonians 3: 9-10

"What would be an adequate thanksgiving to offer God for all the joy we experience before him because of you?  We do what we can, praying away, night and day...."

I am praying with a very thankful heart for each and every person God has placed in my life...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
