thanksgiving 2014

Thanksgiving again.

This year, there is so, so much to be thankful for.

This year, I woke up to my newest little buddy on one side and my sweet girl on the other. My husband was up cooking dinner for all the family we have in town. I was able to sleepily pull C into bed and nurse him quietly while his big sister got up to see what was going on in the rest of the house. We have spent a day surrounded by family, which can be overwhelming, but also kind of the point of the holiday.

There is so much to be thankful for.

I cannot believe I have two little ones this year. I am so glad that His plan is greater than ours and He never ceases to surprise us with how good it is. I'm so thankful for this second little miracle baby. Everything is just so, so good right now.

Happy Thanksgiving y'all.

Thankful.

I have so much to be thankful for this year. Because my brain is still muddled with turkey, family, and football, a list will have to do. I can't quit grinning. I am beyond blessed!!

1. My amazing husband. He truly is my best friend. He makes me smile even when I'm mad. He makes me laugh constantly. He works so hard to build a great life for me and now for his little girl on the way. He's amazing. I have no idea how I got lucky enough for him to love me, but I thank God for him everyday.



2. Our little girl. She's what we've been praying for and longing for for years. In an instant, she put a permanent smile on our faces, and changed our lives forever. She made us a complete family and we can't wait to meet her.



3. Our pets. They bring a ridiculous amount of joy to our lives and even though they may be just "animals" (shh... don't tell them!), they are a huge part of our family. We seriously love them a sick amount.



4. Our families. We are both so fortunate that we both come from very supportive families who have been there for us through everything.

5. That the Marine is safe. He may not be where I want him, but at least he's safe.

6. That we have a home and jobs and a car.

7. That we have a Savior that loves us and watches over us everyday.

8. For my amazing friends and blog friends. When I started this blog a year ago, I had no idea what would come of it, but I adore my friendships that I've formed with this thing. You ladies are wonderful!!

It's been such an awesome year and I'm looking forward to the next one. Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!! We're decorating our tree tonight and starting the Christmas season strong!

April Showers

First of all.. Thank you guys so much for your comments on my last post!! It made my day! I am feeling much better today. Just needed a blah day but I'm back.. =)

It could be that I'm doing so much better because Megan is finally off of Idol... Yay!!

It could be because...



The Hills is back on Monday!!

Oh yea.. I'm super excited about this. I know, I know.. but I love it! I don't care if it's real, fake, anything. I love it.

The hubs likes it too. Or at least he watches it with me every week. I do love that man!

If it rains much longer, I am afraid our house might float away.

My dogs haven't been out for even an hour in the last 2 days. They are driving me crazy.

The bestest is in town from Charleston this weekend. Yay!! I haven't seen my girl in a month of Sundays. We are way overdue for a reunion!

I put on a pair of jeans that I haven't been able to wear for years tonite. They were loose!! Score!!

Yep.. I'm doing much better today.. =)
