things I am grateful for today

• Danae and Paige are home from camp safe and sound. Check out their blogs for stories and pics. They had such a life changing experience. I love it!
• Rebekah was out for a day pass. Continue to pray for her.
• The fire didn't grow out of control.
• I have the day off and went for a wonderful breakfast at the Old Garage with my hubby.
• I have just about found the end of the camp laundry.
• That I have all that laundry to do! Because I love being a mom!
• That it is getting cooler. 30+ day after day is a bit draining!
• That my aunt came for a visit and we had a great time. I hadn't seen her in over 12 years!
• That my parents took Sunny home for a few months. One less pet! Although the two cats get quite a bit more mischievous when Sunny isn't around to bark them into shape!
• That the power came back on! Last night from 6-12 we were powerless. It was fun though, too. We dug out every candle and flashlight we could find, as well as glow sticks for the kids' rooms. The whole town was soooo black! And we learned how to shut our garage door without the automatic closer! :-)
• That I got to see some photos from our friends in China. The following is a photo they took while on vacation of a little boy in the ocean.isn't it cute???
