So lately I have been feeling a little envious of various things that other people have----> bigger house, backyard, kids that sleep, husbands that do extra around the house.....
when I realized that envying what they have is not only wrong, but not going to change the things in my life, so this morning I decided to make a list of the things that I DO have and am thankful for...so here it goes---in no particular order:
1. My home. granted it is small, and has no backyard, but it serves its purpose and its only for 1 year.
2. my husband. he works hard, long hours to take care of us.
3. my job. the days and hours are perfect, and the people are fun :)
4. my kids. they are the smartest, funniest little people I know, and I thank God for my 2 little miracles, and cannot imagine my life without them!!
5. my parents. they are always willing to help out however they can.
6. the beautiful sunshine that has been out lately, I so love the sun!
7. my friends. they are always there whenever I need to talk, or have retail therapy
8. second hand stores (goodwill,once upon a child,trading post...). I know, but I just love finding an awesome deal on something!!!
well, that's all I can come up with right now, I know that there are other things, but off the top of my head thats it! :)
have a lovely sunny day today, and be thankful for what you have.

4th of july
well its been about a week, but I wasn't ignoring you my feollow bloggers, I was super busy and just havent had a chance to sit down and type anything worthwhile....lets see if I can catch you all up to our life.....
my princess, my baby girl turned 5 8 days ago, and I cant believe I have a 5 year old! she had an awesome time , and is already thinking about what she wants to do next year for her "six year old party"
last week was vacation bible school at my parents church and athena and caleb went every single day! athena learned her verses, did her homework, made new friends, and had a great time! she won the top prize and was so excited and proud of herself!!
this weekend we didnt do fireworks, but went to the williston parade with my parents. athena did great, she snagged lots of candy and had fun. caleb on the other hand did not enjoy himself. he yelled. he cried. he pouted. until the parade started and then seemed to think they were throwing candy right at him! after the parade we walked to the green to get lunch and the regular festivities....but caleb, didnt want todo that. he yelled. he screamed. he hollered for me to hold him. so we left. I took him to my parents and put him down for a nap....athena got to stay with my parents and she had a great time! then after nap they went swimming in the pool, I got soaked, but honestly didnt complain today....it was just too hot!
then when Josh got home from work we had a nice cookout, complete with s'mores and watermelon. yummmmmy! the perfect end to a day. both kids are snoozing so josh is watching a movie while I am typing away on my new laptop...yep. my hubby got me a laptop which is lovely!! Im in my bed with the ac going but yet still online...i could get used to this :)
well, I am gonna go read a little bit hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of july.......I am hoping to keepup blogging better now that I dont have an excuse :)
