Thankful Thursday

by Lori

1. I am worn out from an all day field trip but if you look here, and see pictures you can tell we had a blast. And my youngest, even though he is almost 10, wanted to hold my hand the whole time. Yep, I melted.

2. I am thankful for friends that put up with my pity parties, I am doing much better after this weekend.

3. Would I be a bad Mom if I said I am thankful there is only 4 more football games until we are DONE with the season!! Yippee…

4. I am thankful I found the energy to go work out this weekend. My body has really been missing it, and I know it helps my outlook on life if I get out and exercise.

5. Do you know how it feels to be totally excited about something in your life but you can not share it….yet. Nah, me neither =)))

6. I also wanted to let you know I purchased an awesome necklace from this girl. Seriously, if you are looking for some Christmas ideas, she does some beautiful work. Crystal I LOVE LOVE my necklace, I wore it all day today. Go see her store here…

7. This woman has some awesome recipes, seriously I was drawn to her blog because the title cracked me up and well…sounded like me. I have already tried this and my kids can not get enough of these (shhh…don’t tell them they are healthy too, or it will blow my cover). Oh and sweet mercy if she keeps posting things like this, I will have to do a lot more exercising. Go visit her, but make sure you are not hungry.

Hope you have a great Thursday, mine will be busy so I might not be able to visit until the weekend.

Blessings!!

Sounds like you are doing much better, my sweet friend. I love the pictures you have taken on the field-trip…many ‘subjects’ for your scrapping habit *grin*….

Well, I am always good for some new recipes. And you are right – the body feels much better with exercise. I felt so good last week…I really need to make it a habit to be more active :)

Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us this week.

Be blessed today and always.

He ‘still’ wanted to hold your hand..my seven year old still does ‘sometimes’ and you gave me such hope that he still will at 10!

I am so with you on the football thing. Am I a bad mom for saying it isn’t very fun watching your kid in a pile for an hour and a half? Give me baseball any day…:)

FYI – Having a big ole Bible Study Giveaway you might be interested in.! ;)
