10 things to be thankful for


I'm sitting here waiting for Jim and Haley to get home from softball practice and I remembered I wanted to blog about some things that I am thankful for. Tis the season right?

  1. My husband and daughter
  2. Our health
  3. Both Jim and I having stable full time jobs.
  4. Being able to have what we need to live.
  5. Our extended families
  6. Our furry family!
  7. Our friends
  8. Being able to provide my family with home cooked meals. I love to cook.
  9. Being able to stay warm in our house even though my husband is the thermostat nazi!
  10. My Cricut!
This morning I made a little crafty sign.

I turned this Dollar tree sign (originally red) into a family sign. I first spray painted it lightly with a metal primer and then painted it with 3 coats of black acrylic paint.

I then used white contact paper for the name and the words and year. Turned out nicely, except that I didn't gage the space between established and the year correctly. I should have moved the year out a bit more..

Oh well.. it will look nice somewhere!

    Beautiful sign!
