Day 1: I am thankful for such a sweet husband who is willing to work overtime for our family. We miss you! But I am sure he is enjoying the football game. Go wildcats!
 
Day 2: I am thankful for family time. What a busy but fun day we had with grandparents, aunts and cousins! we even made two pots of homemade Chili!
  
Day #3 I am thankful for my momma! Today, is her 60th birthday! She says, she will stay 59 forever. Thank you for being such a wonderful mother to me and a super grandma to our girls! Happy birthday pretty lady! Love you!
 


Day 4: I am thankful for the beautiful fall leaves.....the beauty of fall is just so calming and relaxing. I love it!

 Day 5: I am Thankful that for good friends who help us out when we truly need it. Thank You, Natalie and Lisette. We sure love you! 

Day 6: I am Thankful that Hubby and I were able to attend the temple last night with the youth in our ward. What a sweet blessing that was!


Day 7: I am thankful for my sister Trina. Today she turns 38 years old. There is no other sister like her. She is very special to me. We hope her day is filled with love and laughter. Thank you for your kindness, love, your beautiful smile and of course so glad that our girls have you as their aunt! Happy Birthday to the best sister anyone could ask for! I love you!

Day 8: Today I am thankful for Friday night movie nights with our girls. We don't get much time throughout the week to just sit and watch Tv together. So Friday nights are kind of special. Tonight's pick.....Air Bud!

Day 9: Today I am thankful for nap time. I actually took a nap when the girls did. Woke up to them callng my name, telling me to get up. I am also thankful for the several hours I got this evening to scrapbook after the girls went to bed.

Day 10: I am Thankful for being flexible, and being a patient mother and wife. With having preemies, our lives have changed. Over the past several years, we couldn't just say ,yes we will be there. We had to wait to see if one or both of our girls were healthy. We've had to miss many Birthday parties, Thanksgiving get togethers, Christmas get togethers, due to hospital stays or just being home taking care of each other. But you know what....its okay. For the many nights we spent in the hospital caring for Natalie, for the friendships we made while there, it was hard but worth it. I am Thankful that Heavenly Father blessed Erich and I with the ability to be flexible and with patience. We have the rest of our lives to make memories with them. Missing just a few, is absolutely A-okay.
