Count Your Many Blessings!!

So I've been sitting down and trying to blog all week, but every time I sit down to do it all I want to do is complain and whine.  Not cool!  My life is great and so I've decided for the last ten days of October I will write down 100 things that I'm blessed to have in my life.  So here are the first 10 things:

  1. My family  I can't even begin to tell you how much I love these guys!  They are truly an amazing group of people.  We have tons of fun together and I know that no matter what they will be there for me through thick and thin.
  2. Addi :0)  Yes, she gets her own number!  She is absolutely adorable and says the most hilarious things!  Last week we went to Black Island Farm and played around on the slides and corn mazes.  We also went on a hayride and picked out some pumpkins.  She got a small green one.  We then went home and used my Mr. Pumpkin Head kit on my pumpkin.  Then we used it on Addi's pumpkin and she insisted on putting it in the fridge.                                                                
  3. Chocolate...Need I say more?                                                                            
  4. My bed  I got a new matress last year and it has been heaven!!!  So soft and comfy!  I fall into bed at night and go right to sleep.                  
  5. Comfy running shoes My old shoes always gave me blisters all the time.  I went and got some new ones that fit amazingly and even better don't hurt my feet!  These will come in handy when I run my marathon! :0)                            
  6. Autumn  Driving around town yesterday I noticed all the beautiful trees with their gold, red and brown leaves falling down.  So beautiful!!!!  The temperature outside has also dropped!  Now I don't get too hot running outside!!! Yay!!!
  7. Diet Coke...again need I say more?
  8. My jeep  It's so wonderful having a vehicle getting you from point A to point B.  It's even better when it can get from point A to point B while it's snowing!  And it's just so cute!!!
  9. Education I'm thankful for the education I've gained throughout my life....I use all that knowledge all the time!  It's also nice to be able to teach others both young and old about what I have learned.

  10. Pretzel M&M's  I absolutely LOVE whoever thought this up!!!!  They are my new favorite!!!Photo of Pretzel M&M'S® candies
Here are some great quotes I've found this week:

If you're not prepared to look stupid then nothing great is going to happen.

"There is in every true woman's heart a spark of heavenly fire, which lies dormant in the broad daylight of prosperity; but which kindles up and beams and blazes in the dark hour of adversity." ~Washington Irving
