Gratituesday: Enjoying The Ride!

Some days it is so easy to get overwhelmed by runny noses, crusted food on the floor, something growing in the diaper genie, or just simply trying to remember that there is a load of laundry needing to be taken out of the dryer.

I really enjoyed focusing on being thankful during November on the ole blog. No, I totally did not do every day. That just wasn't going to work for me, but I loved the days I was able to do it none the less. It helped me take my eyes off the fingerprints on the windows and thank God that I am so blessed to have two loveable munchkins. I am so blessed!

I liked it so much that I am going to do my best to link up every Tuesday with a Gratituesday post. I am going to keep my focus on what God has done for me that week in particular. I look forward to sharing with you how God is working in my life whether it's BIG or small. But truthfully, it is all BIG! :)

So this week,

I am thankful that through wonderful friends we were able to go spend the day at SeaWorld this past Saturday! There were four tickets available so we were able to invite one of Josiah's friends along. Best. Decision. Ever. They had a blast! Michael and I had so much fun watching and listening to the boys.

It was like a shot in the arm watching those two little boys run from place to place pointing, giggling, and just having the time of their life.

The little boy "awe" of seeing all the animals just warms my heart. "Did you see THAT?" "Look over here!" "C'mon lets go to the next one!" The excitement was catching.

God gave us so much in this life to enjoy.

I am thankful I for the special people in my life that God gave me to "enjoy the ride" with.

Enjoy the pics!

Mommy and baby Shamu were SOO cute!

My favorite thing of the day was watching the boys pet the sting rays.

I thought for sure the boys would be wiped out when we got to the truck. Nope. They got their second wind and was going strong. Note to self: Josiah will not be allowed to drink another Coke until he is 16! ;)

Phillipians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
