We left for Omaha on Friday morning to spend a couple days with Mickey's family at a waterpark hotel. We swam, ate lots of food, had a mini-Christmas, and just enjoyed catching up. Unfortunately, Ev got a little sick on Saturday night and we had to head home early. He is doing better now, I think it was just his allergies and asthma bothering him. :)
Anyways, made it home safely and Mickey had to work today, so the kids and I had a bum around home day. We did nothing! And it was just what we needed after some busy days.
Finally, my thankful list-These were the 1st 10 things that came to my mind in no particular order and is not a complete list whatsoever, I have so much to be thankful for.
1. Staying at home this year to become a better wife and mom and servant of Jesus Christ-I LOVE being at home!
2. In this season of us not having two paychecks-God has provided for us over and over again.
3. My marriage is improving-not perfect by any means-but God has us right where He wants us!
4. Health-I take this for granted sometimes or overlook it, but I shouldn't.
5. I have two of the most beautiful, amazing children-they bring smiles to my face everyday and I still can't believe sometimes that I get to be their mommy!
6. Our church and our small group from church are my lifeblood for staying in the Word and drawing closer to the One who gives me Life.
7. Prayer runs-I have been running a lot and I purposely don't take music most of the time so I can just pray. God has really used this time in great ways.
8. Titus 2! This group of women at my church that I meet with on Tuesday mornings to learn how to be a Titus 2 woman never cease to amaze me. So thankful I know these women!
9. I have incredible, loving, and generous parents. They would do anything for me, my hubby, or my kids with no strings attached.
10. Peace and contentment from Christ alone. I am so thankful God takes my fears and worries upon Him. I wouldn't know any other way except to give them to Him. Happy Thanksgiving!
