Yes, yes I know I missed last Wednesday which means I should do 10 gratefuls but did you happen to see the Birthday post - pretty sure that was a list of 27 gratefuls. Anywho, let's cut to the chase:
1. running
Last night was the first time I have run in a while, and if you know me then you know that I have been waiting for it to get cool enough so I can RUN AGAIN! It was wonderful and I am SO SO grateful for it!
2. a sneak peak of Fall
The amazing cool weather and a little fog on the drive in this morning...mmm I can't wait for fall
(the clothing, the decor, the crisp mornings oh my)!!
3. my cousins (just 2 of the 19 today)
This weekend the last of the 80's ladies was married off. The 80's ladies consists of Katy (born in January), Me (born in February), and Allison (born in March). Ever since we were little we have been lined up in that order and taken pictures at various gatherings
(just incase you need proof I will only bother with a recent photos)
(I probably failed to mention that we dress up in match pjs every Christmas - that's probably a key point to make sure we don't look legitimately cray cray)
I am grateful to have two beautiful, amazing, women in my life. I am a lucky lucky girl!
4. the road we travel
as I mentioned yesterday (which I really wrote on Monday but failed to post it) I am working on focusing on the road we travel not the destination. I kind of feel like this is becoming the theme of my blogging
- the road, the bumps, the straight aways in which we fly down, the curves, the wrong turns -
that's what this life is all about.
I am pretty sure I could label each of these -
something that has gone so quickly (like working and being married and buying a house),
and the bumps and curves and wrong turns (the past spring could qualify for all of those),
oh the road - the road might not seem beautiful sometimes
but when we stop and look around the scenery isn't so bad. :)
Here are some pretty roads for your viewing, brainstorming and daydreaming...
5. hopes and dreams
I know this sounds weird but I am grateful for the hopes and dreams I have.
Besides all of the beautiful people in my life, they are something to live for.
They define each of us.
They humble us.
They free us.
And one day, hopefully, we will become those hopes and dreams.
Happy Wednesday, peeps!
