Happy Birthday Krystal!

Happy 20th birthday Krystal Dawn~

It is the end of the teen years, and the beginning of a new adult life.
I'm sure that soon you will be as mature as me....

Thursday Thirteen!

Thirteen Things I am Thankful for....

It is a good time of year to be thankful...

1. God. Self explanatory...and sorry... I don't have a picture of Him yet....(LOL)

2. My wonderful little boy....He is such a happy guy to have around, and so much fun....
Kendal and I had decided previously not to have any more children, as I had the three girls already...until all of a sudden after 10 years of marriage....and the loss of several close friends...
All of a sudden, it seemed the thing to do...and a year and a half later this little man entered our lives......

3. My husband Kendal...(most days anyways....LOL!) We have been married almost 12 years now.. He is my best friend, and we almost always have a good time at whatever we are doing...have the same sense of humor (that is a scary thought...) Unfortunatly, we are also both stubborn...so we butt heads quite often....LOL!-We have lots of headaches....

4. My girls...Krystal is turning 20 this year and gave me a wonderful grandson...Talon...Brandy is 17 and graduating this year...and Bree is 15 and in grade 10....

5. My Grandson Talon...We have had so much fun with him since he has been born...and he is always a source of entertainment...being such a character...



6. Our house....I LOVE where we are living right now..It is smaller then where we were before, but we have worked ways around it, and we have actually gotten rid of a lot of stuff we didn't need anyways...We have a huge backyard, and the neighborhood is really quiet...(and very festive..I can't believe how many of our neighbors go all out on the decorating...) One of our neighbors even raked our lawn when we moved in!!

7. Our Church..Avonhurst
We have been going there now for two and a half years and still love it, and have made many friends in our time there.



8. Our friends....we feel very blessed by the friends we have made here since we moved to Regina.

9. Our Health...again ....self explanatory.....

10. Regina...and behind that Saskatchewan.....(Man...I can just hear some of you saying "what are you even talking about....) but we love it here and have ever since we arrived almost six years ago....There is tons to do here, and lots of it is free. There are beautiful parks, and lots of other things to brag about...but I won't waste your time right now...:)



11. That I have been able to spend Jeremy's first year at home with him, with some relatively stress free months, and that I will be able to stay with him now. (provided I am able to find some more daycare kids of course...)




12. Kind of gos along with the staying at home thing...but I am also thankful for the opportunity to stay home and do daycare...I can't imagine having to send Jeremy away...and right now I have a great guy named Mathew. He is fun to have around, and generally a very well behaved felllow, so we have fun.



and finally last. but not least

13. THE INTERNET! Which helps me stay connected to other adults (otherwise I would lose my mind) and also allows me to stay in touch with family and friends out of province and saves on evil phone bills.....




Oh yeah, and I will tag Tammy
Sandi
and Heather

Have fun guys!

Welcome to the Thursday Edition of Wordless Wednesday...

Here is a post to go with yesterdays "sleeping in the highchair" post....hehehe...
Jeremy wasn't even on solids yet, and I turned around to do something at the sink...and he managed to get his hands on a chocolate muffin on the table....LOL!
He ate half of it before I could stop him...and seemed to be doing just fine..Thank you very much!
