Thankful Thursdays (Link Up!)...

Loved and Lovely

It's the small things that are filling my heart with thankfulness this week, y'all.

{I'm thankful} that I got to work from home, curled up in a warm blanket, when Texas decided to give us a little more snow on Tuesday.

Those of you who have to deal with real snow on a regular basis probably laugh at us southerners who can't seem to function when the white stuff starts falling.  But after Micah spent 45 minutes trying to go 5 miles on the highway, slipping and sliding multiple times, he turned around and came back home and informed me that I wouldn't be going anywhere that morning.  Who was I to argue?  
 
{I'm thankful} to have come home last night to a kitchen full of freshly chopped veggies, all ready for me to throw them in PW's Summer Stir Fry.  It was delicious, y'all.

And relatively healthy.  But don't skimp on the butter because it absolutely makes the dish. :)

{I'm thankful} that Hobby Lobby had all the things I needed to finish up a project I've been wanting to get to for weeks now.  Here's a little sneak peek.

I'll have the details for you in a few days. :)  

{I'm thankful} that Miss Grace has been especially active this week.  In addition to her kicks and jabs, I've felt other kinds of movement (still not sure exactly what's going on down there, but apparently she's having a good time), and I'm loving it.  So, so sweet.

What are you guys thankful for this week?  Link up and tell us!       


Also linking up with black tag diaries, The Fontenot Four, First Day of my Life, kate says stuff, and  a punk a pumpkin and a peanut.

Snow in the south -- I can see how that isn't the norm. :) I'm hoping we get some more white stuff here in Ohio -- but I don't drive in it often.

Love how those frames are looking!

Would love for you to come link up with us this week! http://theresjustonemommy.com/2013/01/16/5060/

I am super jealous of your snow! I am a teacher and have been wanting a snow day so badly this past two weeks!! It's so pretty to look at.

we had a bit of that and while I love the beauty was so thankful when it left as well

Anna said...

My husband and I are both from the south, so I know what you mean. We joke about rushing to the store to get bread and the "essentials" when the there is talk of snow. ;)

We've had snow this week too and the whole country has ground to a halt! Still it was fun to take the kiddos sledging and build snowmen. That meal looks very yummy!
