Top 5 Things I'm Thankful For

1. Jesus. I'm so thankful that he died on the cross for me but not only that, I'm thankful that since I've centered Him around my life, I have a new heart...new ambition in life. To be more like Christ..to be a TRUE follower and really live Christ's message out as best as I can. And I'm so thankful for His grace when I fall because I'll never be perfect.

2. My husband. He is truely my love. He's my very best friend. I love him so stinkin much. I know God brought us together and I love the fact he's going to be with me throughout the years. He brings so much joy to my life. I love you Ryan.

3. My family & Friends. Not only my side of the family but the other side I gained when I married Ryan. I love each one of them so much. My parents have been there for me my whole life. I love my brother and Janelle, the sister I gained. I love my mother in-law (Tina), step-father in law (Bryan), father-in-law (Jeff), step-mother in law (Nancy) and brother in-law (Steven) and not to mention the step-brothers and sisters in-law. And their dogs =). I love that I have such a wonderful family...biologically and through marriage. My friends. Old and new. I love my friends so much. Some have been with me many years, some not that long at all but regardless, each of my friends have touched me in some way and I love every single one of them. I love all you guys!

4. My house. I'm so thankful for a roof over my head that I own. So many people do not have a roof over their head and there is a small percentage of people who actually own a house in this world. I'm living the American dream that many people desire to have. I'm so thankful for that.

5. My puppy. She is really like my daughter. I love that stupid dog. Ryan's probably reading this right now saying, "Did she really put her dog in her top 5?" Yes, I did.
