A wonderful family.
A nice WARM house to live in (it is too c-c-c-c-old here in Canada I tell ya!!)
Two darling kids that I just love to pieces.
A supportive husband who is willing to put up with my 2am scrapbooking marathons.
A sister who is always willing to help. (Aunt Ash-ee you are the best!!)
For a sister in law who invites your kids over to play one afternoon because she can just see that you need a break.
For sunday afternoon naps, costco pizza when I’m in a pinch for dinner and for chocolate(you knew that had to make it on this list somewhere, right!?)
For grandparents and cousins and aunts and uncles who don’t live too far away.
For the most amazing opportunity EVER!
For these things and many, many more I am so grateful. Grateful for this thanksgiving holiday too! Not just the opportunity it was to spend time with our families and eat WAY too much yummy food this weekend – but the opporunity it gave me to think about all those things in my life I have to be thankful for. Something I don’t do often enough. It has left me feeling so blessed. So willing to accept those things in my life that are not so perfect and just be grateful.
Happy thanksgiving to all my fellow Canadians. I hope your weekend was wonderful! And thanks to all of you for stopping by my little blog that I update every once in a while!

Congratulations to you, Rebecca!
It’s so funny, ’cause I didn’t find your blog as a scrapper (can’t remember how though — I think it was from clicking on the “next” at the top of blogger) I’m not really much of a “scrabooker” (though I’d like to be, I just end up in the scrapbook aisle with my mouth hanging open and drool falling down my chin from overload) But I do love to look at scrapbooking magazines for inspiration for my wedding invite/announcement business (http://fruition-designs.com)
(getting to my point here…)
So, it was so funny to see your pages in the magazines that I have. And once I put 2 and 2 together I realized that most of my favorites (pages that I had marked) were yours!!
Anywho — my llllooooonnnnnggggg and rambling point is that you deserve it! Your work is so clean and fresh looking.
Blessings,
Karla

Loved your post too. Sometimes it’s nice to just step back and be grateful for the good things in our lives, no matter how small.
