10 things I'm thankful for...

One of my friends started a blogging group and I decided to join and this is one of the topics to write on, so here it goes! First of all, i have way more than ten things I'm thankful for, so we can call these my top ten at the moment :)

1. My growing relationship with God, and knowing that he loves me no matter what.

2. My wonderful family. By family i mean everyone...Mom and Dad, my sister and brother in law and their sweet boys, my grandma, all my aunts and uncles ect ect ect!! They have all made an impact in my life and have helped shape me into the person i am today. I love you all!

3. My Amazing husband. I have had the pleasure of watching him grow as a man in so many ways....in business, in health, and most importantly his relationship with his family and the Lord. He is the love of my life, and he totally complete's me.

4. I am soooo thankful that God gave me a healthy little girl. That is the number one thing that i prayed for constantly when i wa pregnant....for a healthy baby. She is so precious and is growing like crazy, so i try to savor every moment i can :)

5. My In-laws. Scott's parents Steve and Jonette are so precious to me. They have done so much for us, and love me like i am one of their own. I am so very thankful that i have a mother in law that i can feel so comfortable with, she really is like another mother to me! I love to watch them with their grandbabies (Gabrielle and Addison) they are so proud of those girls!

6. My relationship with my mother and sister. In earlier years i didnt feel as close to my mom and sister because there wasn't much common ground. In the past year i have learned so much from each of them about being a good wife and mother. I honestly would go crazy if went more than two days without talking to my mom now haha!

7. My beautiful step daughter Gabrielle. She is the sweetest little girl i have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I am so lucky and thankful that she accepted me with open arms and with no judgement what so ever. She always puts me in a good mood with the silly things she says and does, that little diva!

8. Of course, my awesome friends! They are always there for me when i need them. I really wish some of them lived closer to me!!

9. My home. I feel comfortable here, and I have made it my own. I take pride in all the hard work i do here!!

10. In general, i am thankful that God has provided for us. This has been a crazy year, and he knows we have been through alot of changes. It's nice to know that when we feel like we can't handle it all, we have a shoulder to lean on!
