!

oh. my gosh.

today i am also thankful for this:

go to google.com and type in "do a barrel roll" in the search bar. (in google chrome. not firefox or explorer)

YOU'RE WELCOME.

the boys.

today i am thankful for brian, ryne, and roy. also chad and tyler, who were recently adopted into our little work family (aka, new hires).

family picture circa july 2011

(looking at a picture that brian drew me)

me: "...is that a pirate?"

brian: "IT'S A NINJA TURTLE."

....they can be a tad sensitive, but i love them all.

please visit here for perhaps my favorite moment with them.

day 3

today i am thankful for peace. and comfort. and clarity.

early early early this morning, an angel came over while i was getting ready for work and warmed up my car for me, AND scraped allllll the ice off my windshields. with an id card. because the angel couldn't find my ice scraper.

i love that angel.

also, i had some chocolate milk this morning. another thing to be thankful for.

oh thanks!

i was extended a challenge via blog by my sister hayley to do a "Gratitude-a-Day" theme for November. one post a day on someone/something i am thankful for.

oh, and this is an invitation to all of you to make November your own "Gratitude-a-Day" month. (i put it in bold, was that bossy enough??) Thanksgiving is only a few short weeks away, and at Thanksgiving dinner when my dad asks each of us what we are thankful for i should probably have something more eloquent and thought-out to say than "Jesus, family, and football," like last year.


today is november 1st. and really what is prevelant today as far as gratitude goes has a lot to do with what a friend of mine always says about how before you marry someone, you should date them for four seasons and a road trip.

we can officially add strep throat, food poisoning and a yeast infection to that list.

so today, i am thankful for doctors. and antibiotics. but not so much antibiotics.

happy November!
