Thanking God on Friday...with Rachel



friday favorite things | finding joy

Today for my Thanking God on Friday I'm participating in Rachel's Friday Favorite Things.  If you've never stopped by her blog it is a must...I'm always inspired when I read her posts.  I love this idea of a simple list of favorite things and things that I'm thankful for.  Next week I'm going to work on adding pictures...I like that idea.

A date with Rondell and my mom tonight.  Have I ever told you they are the same person...they are.

The joy on my daughter's face when I surprise her with Subway for dinner.

My table overflowing with cards that I've made for my upcoming craft fair.

Heidi's stamping blog where I can find cards to CASE (Copy And Share Everything) for my upcoming craft fair.

Starting a packing list for our Destin vacation.

Bagels.

The beautiful March sunflower picture on my sunflower calendar.

Jamison's giggle.

The way Caleb says Jamison's name (I need to get it on video).

A friend who felt she could trust me with a serious prayer request (prayers lifted).

A house filled with Girl Scout cookies.

Planning our annual Good Friday fish lunch with my mom.

**You should go and like up your favorites :)**

Happy Friday... and is there anything better than a wonderful husband and a fabulous mama? No doubt.

Enjoy your weekend, catch up on a few things, and make certain you find time to rest a little! No more sickness before Florida!

Kelli, I LOVE that you set aside some time just to make a list of all the small, but yet significant things you are thankful for. And, what an honor it is for you to include my stamping blog in that. I am so, so, so glad I have been able to help you out with some card making inspiration. I'm always here for whenever you need to chat. Good luck with your upcoming craft fair...I hope it's a success for you!

Many blessings to you this Friday!

I love the way Hayden says Layla too. But sometimes he just calls her sissy!

You're a great friend and what a blessing that you can help out another friend I'm prayer. :-)

I miss the way Alex and Emily used to say things...you definitely have to get Caleb on video!

Can't believe how close your vaca is getting! So exciting to start planning for it!

Great list, Kelli! I love the idea of a grateful list too. We say a daily "grateful" prayer before dinner every night, and I think it's a great reminder to everyone of how very blessed we are :)
