Thankful

I actually utilized one of my pins...yay for me!

BEHOLD OUR TREE OF THANKS


I went to the craft store, picked out a couple scrapbook pages, and then used their die cut machine to make the little circles.  I did check out their willow bundles, but at $12 I couldn't bring myself to put them in the cart along with the two boys.  Once I got home I used a hole punch so they could hang.  Still stumped and a little bummed that I didn't have any branches, I decided to take a look outside to see what I could come up with.  $ FREE.99 is always nice, right?!? And not to shabby if I do say so myself!

Each day we tried to add one new thing we were thankful for.  Twodles came up with quite a few all on his own..."Jeff" was one of them.  We missed a lot of days, but it was nice to have a reminder of all that we are blessed with.  



Because I am paranoid of becoming a hoarder and I don't like to keep things, I'll make a list them here so I can ditch the clutter:  
  • my wife's long hair
  • The Prophet
  • work
  • family close by
  • a home to live in
  • milk
  • good health
  • the gospel
  • father/son errands
  • Grammy
  • my blanket
  • nap time
  • warm showers
  • daddy
  • fresh fruit
  • Goob's hair
  • grandkids
  • Goob's cooing
  • kisses
  • the right to vote
Can you tell who said what?  We even got a few put on the tree by Grammy.  

So many things to be thankful for!
