30 Days of Thanks- Days 26 &27


Today I am Thankful for 

Past and Future

Last year, we spent some time in Tampa/St. Petersburg Fl. It was awesome to splash in the water in November. 

A Mantee Viewing Center- It was awesome to see these creatures in nature. Although we just saw them from afar, it was nice to spot them and see share this together. 
When Dad was at the interview my son and I headed to the Zoo. One of the many animals that we saw at the Tampa Zoo was the Manatee. Of course we got a better view at the Zoo. 



We also spend time in Tennessee last year during this time. One of the main cities was Memphis TN. Of course, we could not visit Memphis without #1 visiting Graceland, and #2 eating Memphis BBQ, and #3 visiting the MLK memorial. 

Higher elevations there was snow ! 
Two peas in a pod
Graceland...
The last stop of the home. Showing respect to the members of the Presely Family.




Santa sighting in Nashville TN. 

This area is where all the music happens :) 

On our tour of Nashville, TN.


Our son having a good time playing and getting his wiggles out. 

We were lucky to see some snow. Yes, we stopped at all threw snowballs :) 





I was looking at my photos from last year at this time I realized that we had a really blessed season. We were able to do tons of traveling during my husband's interview season. I like looking at the pictures of some fun times that we were able to have together, sights that we saw, and things we are able to cherish for a lifetime. A lot of our travel was during my husband's break from school so we were able to take our time and have some fun after his stressful interview. 

I am also looking forward to things that we will be able to do in the future. My uncle is coming to visit me in a few weeks and I am very excited. I have some fun things planned for his time with us like brunch, christmas lights, and local sight seeing. My husband will have days off at Christmas that I am looking forward to doing some Christmas traditions. I am looking forward to teaching our son about the Christmas story. As well as having Daddy all to ourselves. 

I am thankful for memories, of hope for brighter days, and the ability to see through some tougher days.

30 Days of Thanks- Days 21 & 22


Today I am Thankful for 

God's Love !



John 3:16New International Reader's Version (NIRV)16 “God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son. Anyone who believes in him will not die but will have eternal life."


Really, I have been thinking of what I am thankful for all day. As tomorrow is Thanksgiving a ton of things easily run through my mind (family,friends, my husband's job, my son, my health, money,food, happiness,shelter,etc). I could jot them all down..I could run and shout for the rest of the year and still not have thanked God enough. With God's love where would I be today ? I am most thankful for God's love, unending, unlimited,massive, love. Without that nothing else, nothing , would even be possible.  Can you believe that he loved you,the sinners, the saints, me, them, us, so so so much that he allowed his son to endure physical,mental,emotional,suffering. So that we all have a chance to be saved and experience an eternal life in heaven with him.

God I am thankful for all you do. For loving me so much. For your protection, your guidance, your plans, your hand in it all. God I thank you for living within me so that I may know the greater goodness of your spirit and walk toward your purpose for my life.

30 Days of Thanks- Day 20


Today I am Thankful for 

Wants


My son told me that he wanted to see Mickey Mouse. He loves watching him on T.V. So when I saw that this show was coming to our area I had to grab tickets. The tickets came in the mail yesterday and I am thankful that we are able to supply some "wants". I am sure that my son's eyes will light up and he will be in amazement as the characters glide, sing, and dance.

30 Days of Thanks- Day 19


Today I am Thankful for 

Rest


I think my weekend caught up to me. I was able to catch a nap after dinner while the boys watched WWE and ate ice cream. Thankful that my husband was home so I could close my eyes, thankful for nothing demanding so I could,and thankful that I was just able to get some extra rest.

I hope that you are able to fit in some rest, downtime, quiet time , or what ever you need in order to rejuvenate !
