Thankful Thursday {Link up #27}


Thankful Thursday
There is something in each day that can bring gratitude & joy if only we will see & appreciate it.  Perhaps we should be looking less with our eyes & more with our hearts.
~Dieter F. Uchtdorf


This week I am Thankful For:

... getting to spend some time with family.  Love seeing those incredible Super Grands grow up into such cool kids.  I love how different they are but each so precious.

... my parents hosting a cookout for us for the 4th of July. 

... my dad's neighbors & the firework show they put on. It honestly is AMAZING!


... that Ryan was down in Florida when a big fire in downtown Louisville broke out.  Glad he got to sit this one out.  I'm sure he wasn't happy about it.  He loves what he does.  But I worry so much about him every time I hear a fire on the news.

... grocery stores.  So many people in this world don't have the luxury to just go to a store & buy whatever they want to eat.

... ordered some clothes online & I liked them all. WHEW!


... our security cameras. I love being able to watch Harvey while I'm at work.

... figuring out cream makes all the difference in Starbucks iced coffee.  I've already had 3 this week.


... my treadmill. I've started running again & its been hot/humid/rainy ... take a combo of any of those things. I love I can run in front of a fan watching Hot in Cleveland.

... my Phantom of the Opera soundtrack.  I've been hooked on that this week.  I blame watching Into the Woods & kicking my Broadway gene back into charge of my life.

Gerard Butler... I still love him as the Phantom
... The kiddos from our youth ministry. I just love that they don't laugh at me when I give messages or when I talk with them & joke with them... they are fantastic.  I am also thankful that I've got to tell them about God's love for them for so many years...

  1. I saw Phantom of the Opera in NYC when I was in high school and loved every single second of it. I've been trying to convince Cory we need to go and see a show but it just isn't working!

  9. Why would they laugh? You are annointed, girl! I loved getting to see you and hear your voice. Would you believe I have never imagined you with a southern accent? That kind of caught me off guard. LOL But you are just too, too cute!

  12. I read cream in your coffee as "ice cream" in your Starbucks and I was going to be all over that. I couldn't agree more that cream makes it awesome! I tried one of their skinny lattes and it was terrible! Yay for buying clothes online and loving them!! I miss shooting off fireworks back home, the big mortar shell ones were always so gorgeous!

  13. I love that you can see your pup while you're at work! I still haven't seen Into the Woods and I've been dying to see it! Maybe I can use my rent one get one free Redbox coupon this weekend. :)

  14. my pup just sleeps on his back in tiny spaces when i'm home, so i bet he does that when i'm not here. he's my heart.

    i thought that was ice cream too and thought what a genius idea!!

    i miss that the 4th is over. i love the patriotism and americana of it all. i wish we felt like that more often than once a year or in times of tragedy.
