25/30: Thankful Thursday

Thanksgiving Edition. In pictures.  I'm thankful for this whole day and all I'm so privileged to be a part of!

 Dad & Eddy celebrating Tina's 50th at the Turkey Trot.  It was 20 degrees.  And yes, dad's hat says "Tina is Old".  He opted for that over a t-shirt.

 Birthday girl and her oldest!

 Mom and her homedog, Angela

 Sauer and Welch girls! (Michelle, Angela, Deborah, Donelle, Rebekah, me, & Valerie)

 Dressing - my favorite!

 Deb - making delicious sweet potatoes.

 Dessert

 Sisters

Pretty.

And the outfit.  The boots were only on for pictures, but you know.  :)

18/30: Thankful Thursdays

Tonight, I'm thankful for:

• God's provision in my life.  I have a house.  I have food to eat at every meal.  I have a job.  I really do have everything I could ever need.
• The sinus infection finally starting to go away thanks to some lovely antibiotics.  
• And most of all, that this time next week I will be at home with all of my family.  Can. Not. Wait.

And today's outfit.  Another day with tax lawyers and accountants, another day figuring out how to dress semi- business like when my wardrobe is pretty much devoid of business casual anymore.  Today I actually wore things from my 30 for 30. Yay!  I love this dress.  Deborah gave it to me for Christmas last year and I've already gotten a ton of wear out of it! Today was really cold this morning, so I added the scarf and the cardigan.  And really, it was so cold inside our meeting that it didn't come off until this afternoon when I got in my car.

11/30: Thankful Thursdays

Continuing on with Thankful Thursdays. This week I am thankful for:

• Cool(er) weather and fall colors showing up on the trees.  I feel like fall has FINALLY come to Dallas!
• High school small group girls.  They never cease to challenge me and make me so thankful I signed up to serve in this ministry five and a half years ago. (And yes, I'm thankful even when they frustrate me!)
• Family.  I got to spend a little time with both of my sisters on Saturday before they headed to a wedding.  I love them and love getting little bits of time with them.  I can't wait for Thanksgiving when everyone is at home!
• And of course, on Veteran's Day, all those who have served and are serving our country.  I am so thankful for the sacrifices that have been made so that I can live in a free country.

And today's outfit.  I kind of love it.  Everything in the outfit (except the shoes), I've had for a long time and have never once put any of it together.  I like that this little challenge is making me think outside the box.

4/30: Thankful Thursdays

I'm stealing an idea from Amy and making Thursdays in November about being thankful.  I have so much to be thankful for, so here's what comes to mind today.

• My friends, specifically tonight my community group.  I just came from meeting with those girls, and I can't even tell you how much I love them.  I am so thankful for the fact that these girls have walked through life with me for the last four-ish years.  I'm thankful that they know me and that I get to process life with them.  And most of all I'm thankful that they are the friends God has placed in my life.
  
• I'm thankful for Sudafed.  I appear to be allergic to mold.  Every time it rains, I end up miserable with congestion and sinus pressure.  I've started taking Sudafed regularly when it rains seriously and it is amazing!
  
• I'm thankful for a weekend at home.  I'm thankful for not having many plans this coming weekend other than getting to spend some time with friends and doing some serious resting.  I'm not sure I've recovered from this last weekend.

There are obviously so many more, but for today, those top the list!
