Thankful thankful thankful. So many wonderful blessings in my life.

1. So grateful for my wonderful husband. :) He works so hard while I go to school and doesn't complain. Just yesterday he found out he got a new position he applied for at work. I'm so proud of him. And he helps around the house- doing dishes, cleaning, helping me with the laundry, paying the bills, taking out the trash. This last week we started doing Insanity and trying to eat healthier- he makes me so happy that he wants to take care of himself, and it makes me feel so loved.

2. My family is awesome, they support and love me through everything. I've been loving training for a half marathon with my mom lately. It's awesome to go for our long run on the weekend, then she's so sweet and treats me to lunch and a coffee. I'm so thankful I've grown closer with my family over the last few years, and I greatly appreciate all they have done for me over my lifetime. As I've gotten older I've found my parents and my brother to be cooler and I really enjoy hanging out with them. And now I get to have another family with the Simsers! They have always been so nice to me, and fun to hang out with too! I'm so appreciative of them inviting into their family with open arms and including me in everything. They've also been very supportive of me and Corey, our career goals, hobbies, etc..

3. My classmates have been such a blessing over the last 2 years. They have become a new family. It's so cool to me how God puts special people into our lives for different seasons. I've found an incredible core group of friends, an additional brother, wonderful workout buddies, great women of faith to have fellowship with, awesome late night study partners, people who love to eat as much as I do, and the list goes on and on. I love them and don't know what I would do without them.

4. My friends from high school. I haven't seen them much lately, but they will always be so dear to me. No matter what happens, I know we will always be there for each other. I'm sorry I've been away so much lately. But you guys are truly a special group. BFFs ... duh!!! I miss you all.

5. Lovely SPUGs! I love gymnastics and I love my wonderful college teammates, coaches, and amazing athletic trainer Julie so much. College definitely had some rough spots, I think I wouldn't have made it through without you guys. Great airplane rides, car trips, fun workouts, funny videos and inside jokes... and lots of blood, sweat, and tears. 

I realized God should be number one on this list, but of course that is a given. All of these things truly belong to Him. I'm so thankful and feel so blessed to have a chance to know all these people and have them be part of my life.

Furthermore, there are countless other people, opportunities, and things I just feel unbelievable thankful for. Our church home at Rolling Hills, my club gymnastics friends who were such a big part of my life, other friends from college, our mentors, my parents' sweet pets that just make me smile, a sunny Spring break, having enough food to eat and a warm bed to crawl into at night, being free to worship how I want and when and where I want, being in PT school, getting to go into a profession I enjoy, having a place to live, being able to see the beautiful flowers and hear the birds, chocolate chips cookies, having a car to drive and computer to use, so so so much more. I could put so many pictures up here and mention pretty much everyone. :)
