Thankful Thursday (Times Three)...

It's that time again...Thankful Thursday (Times Three)!! This is when I post three things that I am SO SO thankful for.

This week I'm thankful for...

1. My dad!!!


He has worked for Exxon for the past 38 years. As you know, due to Hurricane Ike, Exxon had to shut down. Soon after the hurricane, my dad went back to work and was put on GRAVEYARDS. He probably hasn't worked graveyards since I was 4 or 5 years old!! As you can imagine, this has been a culture shock for him. Not to mention that my mom doesn't like sleeping by herself. Hopefully he will not have to do this much longer. But, I am SO thankful that my dad has a great job that enables him to take GREAT care of my mom...AND as the gas prices start to decrease, you ALL can thank my dad for working so hard for making that happen too :)


2. The ability to purchase two dresses for the wedding we are attending next weekend. They are just so beautiful and I know I will feel beautiful in them too. Not to mention that I was able to get a $96 discount for researching coupons on line :) If you want to check out the dresses go to my other blog and take a look!!!


3. My husband's family (aka the In-Loves---otherwise known as In-Laws to most people)!!!

My cousin-in-love, Brenna, is coming over tomorrow night to help me color my hair. We are trying to save some money, so I thought having her do my hair at my house...which will cost roughly $20-$30 versus going to the salon and spending over $100 would make my DH happy :)


My mother-in-love is coming over too. She's just going to hang out with us girls and make us taco salad for dinner. What more could a girl ask for????



Those are the things I'm thankful for this Thursday....what three things are you thankful for?

Thanks for your always positive outlook. I know how hard infertility can be. If you ever need an ear to bend, fire me an email. Keep the faith.

Lianna,
Thank you for sharing!
Sounds like you have a good plan! Night shifts are no fun. My husband did it the first 2 years that we were married. I hope that you love the way that your hair turns out. Can't wait to see pics. The dresses are gorgeous. Have a great weekend!

I'm a day late...but here are my three things:
1. The Word of God- how it never returns void and speaks directly to me and my life.
2. The DVR! What did we do without it?
3. A precious family to love and spend time with!
Love ya!
