Thankful Thursday!

Rebecca over at The Road Home is doing Thankful Thursdays!  I love reading what she is thankful for... so I thought I'd steal the idea and give it a try.  Click on the icon to see what she is thankful for!

1.  I am thankful for this man.  He is my everything and more than I ever dreamed of having.  I'm thinking it might be time to do a separate, "Why I love my Husband" post soon!

2.  I am thankful for the wonderful gift of marriage and so thankful that my parents have been such wonderful examples.  They have been through it all: the Vietnam War, infertility, for richer and poorer, living in several states, starting over again and again, illness, having some rebellious kids (well one - and it's not me!), deep pain and heartache and growing old together.  If they can get through all that and more... they are the bomb!  Love them!

3.  I am thankful for protein! LOVE IT!  Bet you didn't see that one coming, huh??

4.  I am thankful for my fenced in back yard.  We got the fence after we had had Daisy a few month and it is wonderful!  Granted, we still have to supervise her out there or she will eat rocks and sticks and mud, but it still rocks my world!  I'm also thankful for these two in the fence.  They are so cute!

5.  I am thankful for my godson Leo, even if he does have the most distinctive baby hair ever.  Hehe.  Love him. 

6.  I am thankful for great friends.  Here is am with Deacon Dominic.  He's going to make an amazing priest next year!  I am also thankful for all my friends who love love love Big Brother like I do.  You know who you are!

7.  I am thankful that I get to play hide-and-seek with this little pup.  She is not that good at the game.

SO MUCH FOR ME TO BE THANKFUL FOR THIS WEEK!

Love this! Thanks for joining me :).

Fenced in back yards are the BEST aren't they?!?!

That last pictures has me laughing out loud - The Man used to play hide and seek with Kali all the time. She 'stays' and 'waits' AWESOME and he would tell her to wait and then go hide and it would be soooo funny her looking for him - our bed is super high and she couldn't see on top without jumping up and he would lay on the bed super still and she would go in and out of the bathroom a couple of times before she saw him! I'll have to ask why he doesn't play hide and seek with her anymore...it was so cute and fun :).

Happy weekend!
