Today I am thankful for...

JEN

Sister, friend & styling guru! You are like
the 'wocket in my pocket' that I don't want
anyone to know about!
I love you and your brilliance! xoxo

Today I am thankful for...

Kristi, Jen, Megan, Ali & Meghan.

Life has taken us in many different places

but they are still some of the most important people in my life.

“Though we drifted apart in distance

I still think of you as being right here.

And although we have many new friends,

it is our friendship that means the most to me.”

Halloween Stroll

Already, Halloween seems like a lifetime ago. However, how can I not share some of our pictures from this holiday? These are from the Halloween Stroll that takes place in downtown Rock Springs every year. We went with our good friends, the Doaks, and had a great time! Enjoy!

The Thanksgiving Challenge

Every day this month until Thanksgiving, think of at least one thing that you are thankful for and write it. "Today I am thankful for..." This little challenge comes to me via Facebook but is worthwhile all the same. However, I thought my thankfulness might get lengthy or even sappy {given my recent state of mind} so, best to be written on the blog.

Today I am thankful for the health of my children. On of my best friend's children is having some serious medical problems right now and watching her endure this is very difficult to say the least. I can only relate in that we only ever want the absolute best for our children and when any issue arises that threatens that it is devastating. This particular situation just breaks my heart. So today, my beautiful, strong, healthy girls are what I am most thankful for.

They are the focus of my life and I love them beyond measure!

However, today I am also thankful for the gift of friendship. I have many girlfriends and few that I am blessed to call my very best friends. Without whom, I often wonder, would I ever make it through {a day, an hour, a cold; a PTO event, parenting crisis, etc.}. We rely on each other for A LOT: a text, a call, a drink, a compliment, a lunch date, a shoulder to lean on, an ear that will listen, someone that will laugh at you and, as I have been reminded again this week, we need each other. To embrace with our mutual love, lift up, look into each others eyes and say:

"you are going to survive this; we are here and we love you."

Game Day Cuties

Well, our beloved Wyoming Cowboys took a beating from BSU on Saturday but, they sure had some cute fans in the stands {along with 29,000 other people}! We had a great visit with our best friends, the Yeends and tons of fun tailgating where we got to see some old college friends! It was a great day {except for the loss}!
