Thankful Thursday

I'm thankful to be home from work.  It was just a rough day because I was stupid and wore shorts.  And the dog wanted outside all day.  It was too cold outside for shorts today.  I liked the temperature, just not in shorts.  I came back in and not even an hour later she peed in the mud room.  UGH!!!  2 year old was WHINY most of the day.  I finally rocked her to sleep.  So today I am thankful to be home.

I am thankful that I have a wonderful husband who right now is working on certification applications.  BOO they stink and cost $$$.  But it's ok.  God is good and will somehow provide for all of our needs.  Praying Aaron finds a job in this area though.  Not really ready to move yet.

I am thankful for missions week at church.  Tonight the Vietnamese church in Erie is presenting.  I'm excited about that.  Tuesday night we had an international foods dinner and talked about missions in Russia.  I can't wait until we decide what to send with those going in September.  I'm thankful that I have the kind of warm clothing that I need during the winter.  It's quite cold in Russia and some of the people working outside don't have winter coats, hats, gloves, scarves, etc.  So thankful for the blessings we have in the US.

I'm thankful for spending time with family this weekend.  We visited my family Saturday night and Aaron's dad Sunday into Monday.  It was his dad's birthday and so we made him dinner and I made cake balls (this time it was lemon cake, orange frosting covered in dark chocolate.)

I'm thankful for the Memorial Day picnic the McKenney's had.  I love our church family so much.  It was just a great time of hanging out with a couple of riveting games of horseshoes *cough* *cough*.  Still way fun though.

What are you thankful for this week?
