Thankful Thursday

1.  annual garage sale day with my mom and sister - We have memories from each year we've gone.  Cousin G probably made the memory this year by puking in the car.
2.  Mara's birthday party - I love to make their birthday parties special.  I am also thankful for my husband who understands my love for theme parties even if he thinks it's way too much work.  He helps out with no complaining.
3.  Pinterest - lots of birthday party ideas
4.  couple of hours to myself
5.  sunshine
6.  morning walks
7.  girls night out
8.  our sandbox
9.  play date - thankful to have mommy friends with young kiddos
10.  Kleenex with lotion - sure saves little noses from getting so red!
11.  my mom's love and dedication for volunteering in the public education system - We got to attend an awards dinner where she won a 2013 Friends of Education volunteer award.
When my mom went up to get her award, Mara started crying, "No, my gama, my gama!"  I guess she thought they were going to take her!
Mara's favorite part of the night (besides Grandma winning an award) was the sugar cookie she got to decorate.
12.  the farming and livestock opportunities my brother has been given - He so kindly took the kids to feed his new herd of cattle. 
 
 
13.  my parents and their love for our kiddos - not every Grandma goes out in the rain just because a little girl wants to swing!
