Rounding out the month

I have been thankful these last four days and have slacked on putting them up but I need to finish what I have started.

I am thankful for opportunities that present themselves at moments when we least expect them.
I am thankful for more family time and fun walks in the woods and getting to enjoy family traditions.
I am thankful for good movie theaters where you can salt and butter your own popcorn and sharing fun movies with Willa. (Is it sad I kind of want the soundtrack for Frozen?)
I am thankful for relaxing morning where I can shop online and wait for football.

I am not sure how people blog everyday....

Day 25 & Day 26: My Bad

I am thankful for warm quilts and blankets as the weather gets colder.  I am always cold but now that we don't have a fenced yard and have to eagle eye the dogs when they go out I am freezing by the time they are done.  But our plethora of blankets help that.

I am thankful for good blogs and message boards.  I follow several and it seems lately the message have really spoken to me.  I feel like I have been all over the board mentally and emotionally trying to figure out this crazy thing called life and they have helped. Or made it worse, it's a crapshoot I guess.

Day 23 & 24: I really thought I was caught up

I am thankful for travelling Montana friends that stopped by to see us. It was fun to catch up.

I an thankful for annoying Chargers fans that stood behind me that taught me restraint and that biting my tongue is taking the high road.

In other news I burned my tongue on hot chocolate on the way to the game because B hit the gas just as I was taking a drink.  Should have been a sign.

Day 22: Montana

I am thankful for our opportunity to live in Montana. Despite tge cold, the distance from things I loved it there. We put down roots,  made great friends (though many left, we met them there), my co-workers & clients were great.  I also know there were many other places we could have been stationed that I would not have enjoyed at all.

Day 21: Missouri

I am thankful Missouri is next to Kansas & that we had the opportunity to move here.

Day 20: Choice

I am so thankful that I live in a country, a time, and have the financial circumstances to have a choice in many things. I know things don't always seem the greatest but we are in a much better place than most people.  I try to constantly remind myself of that and keep that in perspective when things are going on.

Day 19: Games

I am on a day late trend here.  I am thankful for our game routine each night. We play before bedtime and we are certainly working on good sportsmanship. Our favorites have been candyland, guess who?, memory match and a few others. I don't always want to play but I know we are making memories.
