Thankful Thursday

This Thursday I am thankful for many things...

...cooler temps and a nice breeze in July

...a quite night alone with my hubby a homemade omelet and a movie 

...weekend plans to look forward to with family and friends

...coffee with buttered pecan creamer 

...fresh vegetables from a garden

Just a few things to be thankful for today...

Family vacation

We went on a major family vacation this year. We drove to California. It was so much fun! We went to Yosemite and Seqouia National park. And to the beach and boardwalk in Santa Cruz.

We had a blast. The kids talk about seeing the largest tree in the world, the General Sherman, playing on the beach, and playing at the arcade. The mountains were absolutely beautiful. And we visited some family in New Mexico on our way there. 

4th of July

Our 4th of July was spent rather low key. We went out to a friends house, talked, laughed, and watched kids play with fireworks. When it got dark we popped some bigger ones. We had a blast!!
