30 Days of Thanks- Day 20

Today I am thankful for our crock-pot. 
It allows us to have hot, home cooked meals at a reasonable time after we both have been gone for a majority of the day. 
I love being able to throw what we are having for dinner in the crock-pot and not have to worry about it or having to worry about cooking dinner at 7:30 at night. 
It's also nice because it is less dishes that have to be done after dinner (or the next day.)

The month of September is a very emotional month for family and for myself. September brings birthdays, wedding anniversaries, cornfest, and anniversaries of the passing of my Grandpa and Grandma. Just as anyone else would say about their own grandparents, my Grandma and Grandpa were two of the greatest people I have ever known. They were full of love for each other and full of love for everyone else. Words can not begin to explain how much we miss them both each and every day. My Grandpa and I summer 2009 I was very lucky to have spent the last month of my grandpa's life with him. I was able to gain a month of memories that I will hold in my heart forever.

30 Days of Thanks- Day 25

Today I am thankful that I was able to start Thanksgiving dinner prep.  We were able to make pumpkin pie, crust-less pumpkin pie, cheesecake and the cheesecake topping.   We were also able to put together the relish tray and chop the vegetables that we need for tomorrow.  Having the time today to get some stuff done for tomorrows dinner comes in handy because it is less we have to run around and do tomorrow.  It's also helpful because we were able to make sure we didn't forget anything for Thanksgiving dinner.

30 Days of Thanks- Day 16

Today I am thankful for my brothers.  Being the middle child between two brothers can be a difficult job but I can handle in most days.  Today is also my little brothers 16th birthday! My older brother will always be the older brother but no matter how old my little brother is, I will always refer to him as my little brother.  Going through my TimeHop this morning, they all consisted of the phrase "I can't believe my little brother is __ years old" and today is no different. I can't believe he is 16 years old and will be driving before we know it.  Happy 16th Birthday Mathew!!!
