Thankful Thursdays

I'm sitting at my parents house in JC and was reading a new blog (well to me)  The Cape on The Corner, and noticed a new challenge going on, well kinda. Thankful Thursdays. So I decided to join her and specify 5 things that I am thankful for on Thursdays.

Today, I am thankful for:

1. God. ♥ He is purely amazing in all that he does. He has blessed me so much today, and everyday for keeping me alive and showing me how to become a better Christian. I am thankful for God and my life.

2. Brian. Without him, I would have to work, to take care of myself. He takes care of me 100% and I have become reliant on him financially for EVERYTHING! Even though my mom and I have started our business, we, currently, haven't made enough to even reimburse ourselves for our products. Brian is an amazing man, and he not only takes care of me, but he loves me for me, and wants to be my husband. Marriage is a laughed at relationship nowadays. People don't take marriage seriously. We do. We've already vowed not to EVER seperate, but instead to work out our problems, and compromise, and not be selfish. I admit, I am a very selfish person 75% of the time! I know this, and I try my best daily to work on that. I am impatiently waiting to marry such a truely incredible man.

3. My family. My parents, my cousins, my aunt's and uncles, my grandparent's, my brother, and my friends. They are all so important and a vital part of my everyday life. I am so appreciative of them, because they love me and they take care of me as well. My friends are my family.

4. Road trips. I love traveling, besides how tired it makes me. The road trip from El Campo to Austin is beautiful. Mostly open roads with alot of country side view. It's peaceful with nothing but Randy Rogers Band and Wade Bowen blasting on my stereo with the windows cracked a little bit and the wind blowing my hair. It's purely awesome to have me some alone time ♥.

5. My amazing skills...haha...seriously though! I baked the pumpkin cupcakes this past Sunday for Halloween, but I froze 6 of the biggest cupcakes, because I new I was coming home to JC this weekend. I pulled them out this morning before I left and brought them. As soon as we got home from dinner, I whipped up some buttercream frosting real quick and decorated the cupcakes! They were just as good as they were the day I made them, AMAZING!!! My parents LOVED them, my mom even wants the recipe...which is crazy, because I get ALL of my recipes from her! My dad ate 2...TWO! I couldnt even finish 1, if that says anything about them! They are seriously so sweet and decadent that if you eat too much, you get a really bad tummy ache. I get a slight tummy ache just by eating half of one...

Overall, today I am thankful for these 5 things and more! Tomorrow I'd like to start a new day off, and I'll try something new! I'll be blogging about my 10 fads/obsessions for the week with Fad Friday!

I'm also going to start blogging in the mornings instead of late at night...I'm a lazy bone when it comes to waking up early. So this will be something TOTALLY new to me. I LOVE to sleep, and I am often criticized for it by everyone! See ya'll tomorrow! :)


For Now & God Bless, *Amber*
