What I'm thankful for

Dear Family and Friends, Happy Thanksgiving!
I wanted to take a few minutes out to just tell everyone what I am most thankful for this year. I am so very thankful for my husband. He is my best friend. The one person who I can share my real joys and sorrows with. He is always there to hold my hand and heart as we dance through this life. Cheesy as it may be, Lane helps make each day better by just being apart of it! Most of you know that we are now a family of 5, the twins are growing and changing everyday! I can't say enough how thankful I am for my 3 girls. Sometimes they make me laugh, and sometimes they make me cry but I am so thankful for them! I used to think I couldn't imagine a day without Lilly. I couldn't remember what life was like before lillyanna came into our lives. I can honestly say now that I definatly remember what life before the twins. It was much quieter!!! I am thankful for the job that my husband has. I am thankful for the house that we are now selling. It was a wonderful home. 2 good years were spent there. I am thankful for the neighbors, the friends that we made in that home. Specifically I am thankful for my neighbor Jen. She had a cup of sugar and hug ready at all times. I will miss her very much! I am thankful for the new home that my dad is building for us! What a huge blessing! Who gets the oppertunity to live out in the country just minutes from thier family at our age? not many I'm sure. So Thank you so much Dad and Becky for your generosity and love. We appreciate all that you have done and are doing for us. I know that it will provide us with many many happy years! Thank you.I am thankful for Lanes mom for taking us in while we are trying to sell our house. I know that things aren't easy, and 6 kids is more than she bargined for at one time. But we appreciate that we can stay here for a little while between the move. I know we will both be rejoicing the day our house is finished!!! Me because I'll get my own room again, and her because it will be quiet at 2 am again! I am also thankful for my very large, very wonderful family! I Loved spending thanksgiving afternoon playing games and talking with the family... Words cannot really express the joy that I feel when I am around all of you! Thank you for being a great family to be apart of! May this next year be filled with joy and happiness!
With a cup full and running over,
Thank you Lord for a wonderful year!
