The 30 days of Thanksgiving

I know a lot of friends on facebook posted something to be thankful for everyday. I tried to post it on facebook everyday, but I don't slow down a lot right now, so some days didn't get the proper "I'm thankful for" attention. So I decided to put them all on my blog tonight. Yes I should be in bed, but I took a nap today while Ryan took his. I usually don't do that, but I just couldn't keep my eyes open today.
So here goes, Heather's 30 days of Thanksgiving list
1. I'm thankful that God loves me unconditionally, and accepts me with all my faults.
2. I'm thankful that I have Nick in my life. He's a wonderful man and a great father, and loves me so much.
3. I'm thankful for a wonderful son!!! I love my little boy so much, he's amazing!!
4. I'm thankful that I have a great dad who loves me, Nick, and Ryan. He's helped us so much, and I'm forever grateful for that.

12. I'm thankful that God let me find Nick. I've never been happier in my life!!!!!
13. I'm thankful for my family members, both near and far.
14. I'm thankful that I live in the south, where we don't get much snow. I don't mind a little, but I'm not a fan of seeing it over and over.
15. I'm thankful for all the comforts of home. So many of us take them for granted when so many don't have them at this time of year.
16. I'm thankful to live in a free country.
17. I'm thankful for all of our military personnel. My dad proudly served for over 30 years before retiring.
18. I'm thankful that we found a place to live in Auburn. I was afraid we wouldn't since we have a tight budget to stick to. God blessed us though!!
19. I'm thankful for all of my pets. I'm such an animal lover, and my dogs and cats are like my children too...annoying children sometimes.
20. I'm thankful that my dad found happiness with someone again after losing my mom several years ago.
21. I'm thankful for the extended family I have. You may not be blood related, but you're family and that's what matters!!
22. I'm thankful that I can come up with so many things to be thankful for.
23. I'm thankful that my dad knows how to fry a turkey, I have no clue how to cook one.
24. It's Thanksgiving Day!!!! I'm thankful for all the great food I'm going to eat and the family and friends who are here with us.
25. I'm thankful that I'm not into black Friday. Oh wait...I did go shopping and found some great deals for myself and my family.
26. I'm thankful today because it's Saturday...time for the Iron Bowl!!!! Roll Tide!! I'm a true football fanatic!
27. I'm thankful that I got to go to church today and work in the nursery during church.
28. I'm thankful because my nephew turns 4 today!! I love my monkey!!
29. I'm thankful that I got through the day. This day is a very rough day for me. I lost my mother in 2008 on this day. Not a day goes by that I don't miss her. I'm so thankful for all the time that I got to spend with her though. She was an amazing woman!
30. I'm thankful that I found 30 reasons to be thankful for.
I will try to give thanks for the people and things in my life. I believe that being thankful is a 365 day thing, not just a one day or 30 day thing. Be thankful that you're alive, and rejoice in that!!
