30 Days Of Thankful

This Thanksgiving I've decided to name something I'm thankful for for the entire month of November. I have so much to be thankful for that my only problem will be narrowing it down to 30.

November 1
I'm thankful for my beautiful girls. They are my entire world. I could never fathom how much I could love two little people before I gave birth to them. They are my everything.

November 2
I'm thankful for my handsome husband. He's my true love and my best friend and I couldn't live without him.

November 3
I'm thankful for God's love. I'll spend the rest of my life lifting Him up and giving Him thanks for everything I've been given.

November 4
I'm thankful that I've been given another day to appreciate life.

November 5
I'm thankful for the beautiful home my husband and father-in-law built for my little family.  But if you know someone who'd like to buy it...  =)

November 6
I'm thankful for lots of laughs with great friends. If you haven't seen this I highly recommend catching a show if it comes to a city near you. This was my second time and it was just as funny.

November 7
I'm thankful for strong coffee- It gets me through the days of sleepless nights!!

November 8
I'm thankful for my children's laughter. It's like music to my ears. There's nothing more beautiful than a happy child.

November 9
I'm thankful for beautiful fall weather. I love this time of year!!

November 10
I'm thankful for my family's heath. We've been so blessed!!

November 11
I'm thankful for our guardian angels. Today is the 26th anniversary of the day my mother and aunt went to heaven. They've never left my side and I feel them with me every day.

November 10
I'm thankful for hard times because they've made me stronger and wiser, and the good times even better.

November 12
I'm thankful for all the strong women in my life that have showed me how to be a awesome wife and mother.

November 13
I'm thankful to be a stay at home mother and wife. I love that I'm able to be with them every day and not miss anything. These days go by so fast that I try not to blink.

November 14
I'm truly thankful for all of our family. You're nothing without the ones that love you.

November 15
I'm thankful for children who like to sleep in. Now that my JuicyJuice is sleeping through the night she's decided to keep it going until 9 or 10 just like her big sister. I'm extra thankful for this.

November 16
I'm thankful for my pediatrician. You wanna talk about a life savor? He's been as close as a family member and when we move his job is going to be the most difficult to replace. You'll never know how much we appreciate you, Dr Dan.
P.S. He was also my husband's pediatrician so I'm thankful for that, too.

November 17
I'm thankful for my husband's days off. I know that saving lives is important and all but sometimes we miss him here at home. We love you, Mr Dixon!!

November 18
I'm thankful for nap time. I'm very thankful my girls nap at the same time =)

November 19
I'm thankful that November is National Premature Birth Awareness Month. My little JuicyJuice had a hard time her first week of life and I am so proud of my 7lb 4.4oz preemie. May I always look back at these pictures with the same feeling of awe in God for sending me this angel. Although I've been through some hard times in my life I was never truly a believer until my daughters were born. How could you question Him when your in the presence of angels?

November 20
I'm thankful for family vacations. I love getting away with my little family. Our favorite destination is the North Georgia Mountains. I can't get enough of the peace and calm that lives there. I hope we can call it home very soon.

November 21
I'm thankful for a husband that knows how to cook. Without him we'd surely starve =)

November 22
I'm thankful for hand-holding blessings around the table. Somehow I think it means more when we're showing each other just a little more love when we're thanking God.

November 23
I'm thankful for an audience that doesn't judge my singing or dancing. I don't do either very well but I most certainly do them often. My 2 girls love it. I hope they've been blessed with beautiful singing voices and a little rhythm.

November 24
I'm thankful for running into old friends and talking and laughing like old times.

November 25
I'm thankful for Thanksgiving!! I love our families and can't get enough of them. I wish there were more holidays for us to get together. I'm also thankful that my husband was born 35 years ago. Happy Birthday Mr Dixon. I love you with all my heart!!

November 26
I'm thankful my husband asked me to be his wife 6 years ago today. It seems so long ago!! I love that we've shared all of our best moments together and I couldn't ask for a better partner to spend my life with. Mr Dixon, you're truly my best friend and you're the best Daddy in the world. I love you.

November 27
I'm thankful to be a Peach County Trojan!! I was sweating the game last night but those boys pulled through. I'd love to make it to the dome this year so RooBear and I can go and cheer them on. Keep your fingers crossed.

November 28
I'm thankful for winning football weekends. First, it was my Trojans and then Georgia won yesterday and the Falcons today. I may need to go buy a lottery ticket...

November 29
I'm thankful for Christmas decorations. I love Christmas trees and lights and music!! This is my time of year. I'm thankful that my little mini-me, RooBear, loves it just as much as me.


November 30
On my last day I'd just like to say that I'm thankful for my wonderful life. It's so amazing to wake up and know that you've been given everything you've ever asked for.  I can say without a doubt that my life is full and my wants are very little. I can't imagine my world any different.
