Thanksgiving All Year: 91-100

I am officially a pathetic blogger. No posts since my last weekly list of thankfulness, which was late, as is this next list! Good grief! I had 3 separate house sitting jobs within a two-and-a-half week time span, plus the overnight trip to San Francisco, and only spent 3 nights at home in between, so with all the back-and-forth things have been a little discombobulated!! I am officially back home now, as of last night, so hopefully I can get back on top of things!

This week I am thankful...

91. To be back at home, eating dinner and watching TV with my parents, and sleeping in my own bed at night!

92. For the snowboarders on this season of The Amazing Race and for the way their faith in Christ was highlighted in this past week's episode!! SO COOL!!

Andy and Tommy have been my favorite team from the start of this season simply because
they are so laid back and easy going... I was STOKED to find out they're Christians --
and that Andy's hometown is Truckee, California, just up the hill from Reno!

93. That God delayed me in completing a photo book on Shutterfly last week so that I not only got free shipping (which was supposedly to have ended the previous night but was apparently extended) but also 20% off on the book!

94. For extra money made by house sitting.

95. For being caught up on tracking my finances once again.

96. For a SUPER fun sleepover Saturday night.

me, Rebecca, Cloe', and Kelly in back;
Emily, Jess, little Sadie, and Mickayla in front

97. For my friend Rebecca who provided some delicious sourdough bread for the sleepover dinner, a ton of help preparing the dinner, and lots of encouraging conversation while we cooked!

98. For a scary/hilarious late-night visit from Ben, Alex, and TJ during the sleepover.

the girls reenacting their fright when the guys
showed up in the back yard without warning lol

99. That God is continuing to work in my heart in life, bringing growth to areas that have been lacking.

100. For the story of Onesimus and for Philemon 1:15.

Here's hoping for better blogging from me in the week ahead! Have a great day, friends!

I try to post daily, but it doesn't always happen. However, even if I only post ONCE in a week, I make sure it's the Thankfulness post because I want to remember to count my blessings from the past week (even if it has been crazy). So, that being said...I think you're doing just fine! :-) Sounds like things are going well - blessings!
