an award...feeling SO loved

awww. Jill presented me with an award!! i am so super excited. thanks so much!

"This blog invests and believes the PROXIMITY - nearness in space, time and relationships! These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated."

those are the 'rules' of this award. i picked some of my 'new' mommy friends to give this award to soo here are my awardees. if that's right. and if that's a word. (oh and some of my new mommy friends already had the award...so i gave it to those who didn't already have it...i LOVE all my new mommy friends just the same and am SO very thankful for all of you)

okay i know. i have lots of new mommy friends. and i've been so blessed to get to know these mommys over the past few months of my blogging. i am so LOVING every minute of it. it's so cool to get to know people whom i would've never met otherwise. so that's one thing i'm so thankful for this thanksgiving...new blogging buddies.

sooo with the thanksgiving theme here are my other things i'm so very thankful for, and first off i'm thankful i've been blessed with the paitence to LOAD these pictures. :)

my hubby and my little caity bug

my little amelya

my little breigh

and my little guy dustin of course

and never mind you that red spot on dustin's head...he has a small case of cradle cap and i have a small case of "i like to pick at anything that is pickable". :0)

so i'm also so very thankful for my friends (in the not blogging world) and my family. and most importantly my relationship with the lord. i've lost that paitence i've been blessed with. and breigh's up and wants to cuddle...it's hard to do at a desk. and i, well, would like to cuddle with her. :0) so happy turkey day if i don't talk to you before that. oh wait one more thing...gage

could possibly be going home today!!??!! isn't that so awesome. for those of you who don't know his story, go check it out. it's one worth being thankful for. and i'm so very thankful that we get to know him (and his mommy and daddy) personally. our god is so good. alright..off to cuddle now. for real this time. :0)
