Tis the season...to be thankful!

How do I begin to name everything I'm thankful for? There are so many things.

I'm thankful for my husband. He is truly my best friend and I cannot imagine my life without him.

I'm thankful for my family. It's really wonderful to have my mom and dad here in MT. I'm not sure I would have stayed out here if they weren't here. I wish we could get Ben and Nate's families out here, but I just don't think that will happen :)

I'm thankful that we get to spend Thanksgiving with both our families. Having Larry, Carol and Sam here will be so much fun.

I'm thankful that even though we feel that "money is tight" some weeks, we are still able to invite 9 other people to our house for a FEAST. We are more fortunate than a lot people.

I'm thankful that Daniel and I have good jobs. They may not be our dream jobs, but again, we are more fortunate than a lot people because we can say we have good jobs.

I'm thankful that I don't have to go shopping on Friday...what can I say? I just wish I liked it a little more, but I just don't!

I'm thankful that our furnace it working this Thanksgiving. Last year we had single digit temperatures and our furnace went out...BRR!

I'm thankful that Daniel and I have the ability to remodel our home and for sure by next year at this time, we'll have our master bedroom completed. I can't wait!

I think I could go on and on, but I won't. I touched on the biggest things at this time.

I asked Daniel what he is thankful for and his response was, "I'm thankful for family...everything...there isn't anything I'm not thankful for." Amen to that!

Happy Thanksgiving! I pray for safe travels for all, and fun gatherings!
