Today I am thankful for..........

DISNEY WORLD!!! Because that's were I am, and because it really is MAGICAL!

Today I am thankful for..........

Grandma Lorz. Her flight arrived last night while the boys were asleep. I woke up in the morning to find my boys cuddled up next to her in bed reading stories. All day they have been like little puppy dogs following her around. They won't let me do much for them when Grandma is around, so for me her visit has already been pure BLISS!!!

Today I am thankful for..............

Laughter. Because it's probably my most favorite thing to do, and I may not be completely sane without it!

and of course I will post the muffin recipe.

Today I am thankful for...........

Applesauce muffins. Because my kids thought they were "cake," (which means REALLY good) and I knew that they were secretly a pretty nutritious little treat.

I am thankful for............

Lazy Sunday afternoons, when there is nothing to do but bury daddy in toys and take pictures of ourselves.

This is the first post of my daily month long "thankful posts." It will be a challenge for me because I am not a consistent poster but I am hoping that by posting everyday I will become even more aware of the many simple blessings around me that I am indeed so thankful for!!

By the way, I have more post updates below.
