Day 5: The 3 year old i baby sit

Today im thankful for the little 3 year old i babysit and for his love of movies. Each day we watch at least one movie and there has been ones that i watched when i was a little kid, so it brings back memories of my childhood! :)

Day 4: My calling in our Church

Day 4: I'm thankful for my calling in our Church. Cody and I have been in the nursery for over a year and we love it! I think its the best calling to have :) and for me, it helps dealing with the fact that we dont have our own kiddos yet!

Day 3: Sleep

today I am thankful for sleep. Im the past i have taken sleep for granted, and now that i have more "grown up" things going on in the mornings, i dont get to sleep in and so im tired more often. I often keep thinking of cody and how hard he worked with 2 jobs and got hardly any sleep and never complained, it still amazes me. But when i do get sleep, I'm thankful for it because im more healthy with it:)

Day 2:my mom!

I'm so thankful for my mom, she is such a role model for me. She has been through H*** lately and has been so strong despite it all and i look up to her for that.We have our differences now(with me being a stubborn adult and being married lol), but i think they only make us stronger. I know i Dont show it enough, but i do want her to know i Love you mom! I hope, one day, i can be half the mom she is and was growing up!

Giving thanks-30 days

Wow I cant believe its been over a year since i have blogged, its mainly because i feel like i have nothing to blog about, same old stuff for us lol. but i am making it a goal to blog everyday in november about things i am thankful for!
 Day 1: I am thankful for my job.-- i am very blessed to have the job that i do, i know sometimes i complain about working, but i do love my job and am grateful for it, cause i know there are many people without jobs.

HAPPENINGS

AUGUST

Another normal month for us! lol- we arent very exciting people i guess! lol Codys brother's wife had her baby shower, and i helped throw it, that was pretty fun. Also my sister in law was in town for almost 2-weeks with our nephew, and we had them stay over a night which was a blast, eventhough jexi was sick- come to find out she had strep- but we took care of little tavon for her so she cld rest, and that was a blast! i got teary eyed just seeing how well cody and tavon played together!

The last monday of August i got a hair job at Great Clips, so this is my secon week, but only like my 5th day cutting hair- due to training days and me being out with medical leave for my foot. So far i like it! Also the last sunday of august, Cody and i got called to the Nursery! We r excoted to be called to doing what we love, I LOVE kids so of caourse i didnt hesitate to say no to the calling! lol. the only bad thiung is that we r new to this ward anyways and now being in the nursery, noone will get to know us. Oh well!

JULY

July was a very normal month! we had a good 4th of july, spent it with both of our families so that was nice. Cody and I did our very first 5k(ever) together and it went ok, ever since then ive been trying to eat healthy and keep the wait off! a week before the race i stopped drinking Caffeine, and now im happy to say its been almost 2 months since a nice cold Dr. Pepper went throught my system! ive been pretty good at not drinking pop at all either, but if i have a craving for caffeine, i just drink sprite and it goes away! LOL
