Thankful Thursday

1. My bed
The frame is squeaky and the mattress is old and way too soft. But I still love my bed. I love sleeping, and I'm grateful to have a place to crash after long and busy days.

2. Overcast days
Yesterday we went to the park for a picnic with two of our neighbors and their kids. It was quite a cloudy day and there was a lovely breeze. It was a nice little break from the blazing hot temperatures we have been having.


3. My Sister
We have the same silly sense of humor. She is always there when I need some adult conversation, a different perspective, some advice, or just to vent for a few minutes. She is sixteen years older than me and I don't remember the only time we lived together (only until I was two) so we didn't have the typical sister relationship when I was growing up. We are really close now and I'm so glad she is my sister.

4. Our denim watermelon quilt
Trevors' mom made it for us for Christmas a few years ago and we use it all the time, especially this time of year. Soccer games, picnics, watching fireworks, etc. It pretty much goes everywhere with us.

5. Spinach
I'm always trying to think of things I can do to be a little bit more healthy (perhaps to make up for the things that aren't quite so healthy). Lately I've been making green smoothies with mango and spinach and they are really good! I also really like spinach on sandwiches.

What are you thankful for?
