Thankful Thursdays #4

I didn't post Thankful Thursday on June 30th because I was at camp. So I'm posting this week instead...


#1 - my church family - I have gotten to know more of this sweet bunch over the past month and have absolutely loved it. I am glad to be apart of such a large diverse church family with so many unique people with amazing characteristics. The kids are awesome and they have sweet spirits. The adults have been so helpful in this transition and I am so excited that I have been able to help.


#2 - our dogs - I mean...how do people NOT have pets?! They are so happy when we come home and no matter what - they give us unconditional love and enjoy spending time with us! Look at those sweet faces...

I made them pose for this picture by holding up a dog treat for them to look at me!

#3 - facebook - LOL! I know - this definitely seems like a frivolous sort of thing, but I enjoy getting updates on people that I don't usually talk to. This feels like such an impersonal way to communicate to people, but sometimes it is very handy! It some ways  - it lets you pray, laugh and cry with people who don't live close - although - alot of the time lately has been praying and crying for my dear friends. I know God is bigger than all of these things, but it's still heartbreaking. God is good all the time and all the time God is good - no matter even if we don't understand His purposes or reasons. (That's definitely something that He has been working on teaching me and I'm sure He will until the day I die.)


Well...that's about it for tonight. It's still been a long week between getting everything ready for stuff and work and trying to wrap my head around school in the fall.


AHHHHHH - school - no school - it's summer.
