Day 17-19th

Day 17: Thankful for being able to take a day off work and get a lot done!

Day 18: Being able to spend the day home with my boys! Even though I only got 2.5 hours of sleep!

Day 19: Being able to see too people unite as one. It was a great day and a day full of new experiences!

Day 16

Sometimes, it's the little things that brighten your day. I was watching TV in the 8 o'clock hour this evening and saw this! I love this woman! I am thankful that a 30 second commercial can turn a day around!

I am thankful for 'text dates'. I love being able to have text conversations with loved ones near and far over movies, TV, music...just whatever we are doing at the same time, that is the same. Mostly on Tuesday nights when a few of us text together over a guilty pleasure show of ours. I wouldn't trade that hour for anything!

Day 11-14th

Ok so yeah I am behind. Only because I have no sat down since last week. I am thankful for a beautiful shower that we were able to put on for Rachel this weekend. Spending time with those women makes my day! I am thankful to be able to spend most of the weekend with our friends. We had a few nights of hanging out and relaxing. It always centers me. I am thankful that HP came out on Blu-Ray. I know that this is something that I shouldn't be thankful for since it's an item that I purchased but I love HP and this movie is my favorite. I stayed up twice this weekend until 2 am to watch it. I am thankful for my friends that can feed my obsessions with me. Haha. I love having a variety of people that can partake in the things I love and that I am thankful for the ones that joke around with me and give me a hard time for being a 12 year old. I am thankful that my dad is doing amazing and his recovery is going so well. I am thankful that I got a clean bill of health at the dentist and nothing went wrong! Hahahaha. We all know my dentist stories are usually a little more excitable then I normally like.

Day 10

I am thankful for lunch time at work. Now this may sound odd, but being able to break free at lunch, makes us a little more sane. I said a little. I love being able to run errands, eat at some of our favorite places, shop, just get out! My lunch partner is pretty amazing and it's always fun to compare receipts at the end. I usually spend the most. Especially when we go to Target. Oye. I am thankful for a job that allows us 45 minutes to take a needed break. I will admit, some days it's longer then 45 minutes! =)

Day 9

As I awoke this morning, I gazed out my window to see the first snow had fallen. Call me weird, but I was super excited! I love snow! Yet, in Iowa, people tend to forget how to operate their vehicles and there were several accidents this morning on my way into work. So, I am thank for all the police, fire fighters, and EMT's that risk their lives to save ours. I can't even count how many times I heard sirens go off this morning and thought "we should all be so selfless". I am thankful there are people out there that are willing to go above and beyond to help us. Thank you does not seem worthy enough.

Day 8

Today I am thankful for music. I will say it again, it runs through me. It's lives in my veins. Case and point, today I woke up early to make a purchase on iTunes and thanks to Christina Perri (who I adore and was an artist on this album), I believe I have a song that is inches away from being my most played. I seriously listened to the song at least 20 times today. I am thankful that there are so many talented artists out there to enjoy. I'm grateful that everyday I can turn on my iPod and listen to so many tunes, from all different genres.
