Feelin Thankful

Random things I'm thankful for today:

My Family. I have this good friend, who grew up with less than ideal family members and I tell her all the time that I wish she could have been raised in my family. I have supportive, loving parents and siblings, and I realize how lucky I am to have them.

Our Kids. I snapped this picture of them watching a movie together on the ipod. These two are just best little friends and they do everything together.

Our Mountains. The other morning we woke up to this beautiful sky out my kitchen window. I heart this place.

Carter-man. He turns 8 years old in February and that fact blows my mind. We have such a helpful, fun-loving little guy and we are definitely glad to have him around!

Spunky Hayley. Look at that face, would ya? She is just delightful. Yesterday she came out of her room when she heard Jared getting up for work at 6am. Jared said her eyes looked so red and tired, but she excitedly told him, "Dad! I just counted to 900!!!!". Hahaha

Road Trips with the Fam. We can't sit still on weekends, even when we specifically plan to stay home. But the most fun times have been in the truck on an adventure together.

My Job. I get to hang out with some of the cutest kids I know for an hour every single day.

Our Cute Puppy. I just really really love this sweet little pooch!

A Shoveled Driveway. We've had alot of snow. And it's cold. And I hate shoveling. But while I was shoveling today, I realized how thankful I am that I'm physically able to shovel the driveway. There's been times (after I had my babies) that I wasn't physically capable of doing simple tasks. I try to remind myself to never take our family's good health for granted.

Aaaand there's plenty more. But it's late and I am also very thankful for my nice warm bed :)
