Thankful Thursday: My Journals

Today, I am thankful for my journals. They give me a place to unload my thoughts on topics that no one else would understand. It is also a place where I can document life events, current events, and my thoughts & reactions towards them.
Here is one of my prettiest journals. 
I am also thankful for them because they remind me of where I've been, what I have done, and how I have handled different situations. They tell my story.

Here is one I've started and never finished. I'm sure I have a few more like that in boxes :).
I have stuff in there about family, friends, unforgetable memories, disagreements, WORK, frustrations, my emotions, horses, dreams, goals, you name it....it's probably in there. 

This one was really cool. It helped me reflect on my friendships & made me acknowledge a good  & bad part of my day.
If you don't journal, think about starting. Just think....your GREAT - great Grand kids could read them one day and you may be able to help them, without even meeting them! It's also a GREAT way to clear your mind.
This is my current one. 
BUCK UP BABY!! Go write down what you're THANKFUL for today!!!! God Bless!!

Thankful Thursday: Pinterest

Late bloomer? Yes. Obsessed? Yes. BUT....the fact is: I LOVE PINTEREST!!! I've only had an account for like 3 days or something....but FOR REALS.... It makes me a happier person.

I generate LOTS of ideas within a day. Ideas of all kinds.... I have wish lists, parties to plan, clothes to buy, ALL that kinda stuff and Pinterest let's me hold all those ideas in one place, sift through them, and look at pretty things.

Thankful Thursday: My Sweet Little Family

I feel like I must be the most BLESSED girl in the world to have an awesome, strong, chill, good-lookin', rock of a husband, like Kyle. Really....he knows how to press my buttons and pester me, but he also knows how to make me laugh, when to give me a hug, when to cook dinner....you get the point. This May will be 10 years, that we've been together. HOLY FREAKIN' COW..... That is a DECADE!!! I could go on for days, but bottom line....I LOVE him with all I am! The best blessing of all that Kyle and I are part of together is our sweet little Kylee Jo.




I just absolutely LOVE her. She makes a rough day BRIGHT. She makes a mess seem...not SO bad. She tells the most ENTERTAINING stories. She tells us to STOP being MEAN to each other - even if she THINKS we're bickering. She makes every situation seem so MATTER OF FACT. She LOVES her family, friends, and teachers. She is just SO MUCH FUN. She is loving, fair, entertaining, kind, determined, and just plain AWESOME.







No matter what happens with work, or finances, or anything....they both are just such HUGE blessings in my life that brighten my day! Thank you JESUS for THIS life, with THESE people, and all the wonderful FAMILY and FRIENDS you have surrounded us with!
