I'm so Thankful!


Thanksgiving makes me think of all the things I am thankful for. Even though I have a million things to be thankful for, I have to admit that I have the greatest husband ever and seriously just love that boy. This past year has been another year of transition for us. Jeff lost his job a week before Thanksgiving last year and was unemployed for 5 months. It now seems like just one more chapter in our ever changing and always eventful life :)

He is now employed with a great company and loves his job. He recently got a promotion and is a manager. I just started thinking how our lives have been rooted in change and adjustments since we got married, and yet we have always been so happy. I am convinced that it is because we have been surrounded with God's grace. In his Grace God put us together knowing that we would laugh more than we fight and truly love living life together. It's odd to think we have been married for 6 and a half years now I still feel the same fondness and affection for my hottie as I did on our wedding day. I put this picture on because I remember taking this picture and thinking how funny and sweet Jeff was all at the same time. This morning he gave me a kiss on the cheek and I got that same feeling. I love that our life has been crazy, messy, real, and wonderful, and I have loved every minute, so today I just have to say I am so thankful for Jeff and the joy we have shared in 6 short years of marriage. Thanks God for blessing me with him, he has been one of the greatest gifts you have given me!

This is Jeff writing but signed on as you since I can't figure out how to post something from your computer.

Every day I am astounded at how you can continue to become an even better wife and mom. We were really meant for each other and I couldn't imagine being married to anyone else.

I love you thanks for that post!!!
