Of course, this time of year we all become more aware of all the things that we have to be thankful for in our lives. Some things are more obvious, such as our health or family and others require a bit more thought and contemplation. After doing a bit of thinking myself about what these small things might be in my life, I realized that my list of things that I am thankful for started to grow! I want to share my extended list of thankfulness with you today and ask that you stop and think about some of the maybe small and easily looked over things that you have to be thankful for in your life!
My Thankful List for 2009:
my husband, my parents, my sister and her family, my extended family, my friends, my health, my job and it's paycheck, my co-workers, my creativity, my scrapbook supplies, the manufactures who make them, for being a part of 3 amazing design teams, for my priest and all the priests and religious who have touched my life, the garbage picker upper, the mail delivery person, the farmers who grow and harvest the food I eat, the people who keep the electricity running so I can stay warm/cold and have light, the people who cook food for me at restaurants, the companies who make soap and lotion, for Dr. Pepper and coffee and the companies who make them, for all the doctors and nurses who take care of the patients I work with, for my car, for my house, for our horse Woody, when someone smiles at me as I pass them in the hallwayat work or on the street, when someone says "thank you", for the sunshine and rain, for all the good things God has given me both small and large...
I think I could seriously go on and on! But you get the idea! So you see, when you really break it down, we all really have so many things to be thankful for that we take for granted each and every day!
I hope you are enjoying your time blog hopping for the Bo Bunny blog hop!
Before you leave I wanted to share a Christmas garland I created for an online class I taught last weekend at the crop at ACOT using Bo Bunny's Tis the Season colllection.

What a very cool garland! Love the boxes, it must've been fun decorating them. We're thankful for a lot of things too. It's so easy to see the negative side, just have to look at all the positives. Thanks for the chance to win.
Beautiful! May just have to make one!!! Thanks for the inspiration:)

What a great GARLAND... I am linking your garland to "my things I want to make" on my sidebar!
and yes I agree with being thankful for so much... I think we take so much for granted... like the trash disappearing from our trash cans each week. The fresh produce that gets delivered to the grocery store for us to buy, the health care professionals and much much more...
THANKS for SHARING!
