I am so so very thankful for my amazingly fantastic husband! i always tease him that im is biggest blessing and that he should always be thankful for me but really i think he is MY biggest blessing! he works so incrediably hard so that i can stay home with allyson and im so grateful for that! im also so glad that we met seven years ago he is my best friend i couldnt ask for a better husband! annnnd he is DANG good looking too :)

november 2nd:

i can not even express how thankful i am for my little girl! to think there was a time that i never wanted kids.. i look back at that girl and she was INSANE. im so grateful that i was able to carry her for 9 months and she and i were healthy. i so grateful that i get to be the one to help her when she needs help and to comfort her when she is sad and to start family traditions that hopefully she will love! allyson lucille jones i love you to pieces >

november 3rd:

our freedom! currently i have two people that are serving our country right at this moment i am so grateful for them danny my brother and danny my cousin sometimes i think we take for granted everything we have and our able to do and the reason we get to do those things is because we have men and women everyday fighting for our freedoms :)
