{Thankful Thursday} Home Sweet Home

I am so thankful for my Home.

I am not talking about my house, although I am thankful for that too.

I am talking about where I live!

California...the Central Coast...Home

I when most people hear California, they tend to cringe!

Yes with crazy laws and elevated living prices, it can be a downer. 

But if you look past all that, we are pretty luck and fortunate to live in such 

a GORGEOUS place!

Minutes from the Coast (well 45 for me at least)

Beautiful Landscapes

And so much more! 

I would say that this place really isn't all that bad...

{Thankful Thursday} A Jar Full of Greatness!

So this is a not-so-serious post...

But I had to share with you all something that I am NEWLY thankful for!!

Once I share this with you, I URGE you to go and follow suit!!

Okay, are you ready for this??!!

I am so THANKFUL for this wonderful jar of COOKIE BUTTER!!! Well lets be real hear, I am actually in LOVE with it. For the past few months, I have been seeing a lot of my IG peeps posting this NON-STOP!

And being as I rarely go to Trader Joe's, only for the occasional jar of Coconut Oil, I didn't see the need in making a special trip just for this. Plus I had no idea what it tasted like, or if it even tasted as great as everyone was claiming! But since I just so happened to be there (restocking my C.Oil) I thought, why not just GO FOR IT! Okay folks, my life has changed forever! No really, it has!!

I bought this jar last Saturday. My family and I, well...mainly I, have almost  demolished an entire jar of this sweetness!!

Makes the best sandwiches! Ok Ok, wait a minute, I have to be honest with you all...It's that time of the month so I have been devouring it by the spoonful! SCREW chocolate!! Grab yo-self some Cookie Butter!!

Excuse me while I go finish the last few scoops!

For those of you who don't live near a Trader Joe's...

You can order it on Amazon:

{Thankful Thursday} So Many Things...

This Thursday I am thankful for a lot of things...

Kind of hard to narrow it down

to just one thing in particular...

1. I am thankful that my Hubs' Grandma's surgery went smoothly and she is recovering very fast!
2. I am thankful for my Mom & Sister for watching my munchkins while I have been working this month, it has really helped me out a lot!
3. I am thankful for Nap time... for just that 1 1/2 window I can just sit and breath with no worries...I should probably take advantage of nap time and actually do something productive, but it's so rare when they actually nap at the same time!!!
4. I am thankful for my rice cooker! It does amazing things and is amazingly fast!! Used it to cook quinoa for the first time and it was YUMMERS!
5. I am thankful for caffeine lately. It helps on those lagging mornings when I can't seem to get into gear!
6. Lastly, I am thankful for all the amazing Doctors and Nurses who are taking care of my Aunt Bev while she is in the hospital. She has a lot going on with her right now, but she is in good spirits and looking at everything in a positive light, despite the circumstances she is face with now. I pray that they continue to work their magic and she can go home soon!

I also want to share an app that I have been using lately that goes with this Thankful theme...

Gratitude Journal App

I love it!

It has an alarm that you can set to remind you every day, which is wonderful because I can 

never remember. It also has cute little bullet icons to choose from too, who does like cute bullets!?

It's a nice way to unwind at the end of the day, with a little reminder to take time to appreciate everything

that goes on!

{Thankful Thursday} Little Moments

Hey everyone!! It's another post for Thankful Thursday!! Don't for get to link up to my little

 Thankful Thursday Coffee Date

This post will be linked up there too!

So this week I was trying to find something to write about. There are many things that I am always thankful for, but I wanted to find something special to share. And that's when this little moment happened!

There was a time when I thought that they, well mainly her, would never like each other! I was actually worried about it! Afraid that they would grow up with no relationship at all. I know that sounds silly, but it did cross my mind. I even asked the pediatrician, not our normal one thank goodness, if all this was normal and her response was "Well that's what you get for having them so close together!" UUHHH...

  

But lately, there has been a glimmer of hope! They actually in fact not only like each other, they LOVE each other!! YAY!! Watching them all day long interact brings me just pure joy! And I am so thankful that they have each other, especially when they grow up in to young adults.

This Little Moment just melt my heart! He truly loves and cares for her and I think the feeling is mutual towards him!
