I am thankful for my family. I am very lucky to have them.

[maureen F]

I am thankful for family, good friends that are always there for me when I am not, my health, a job, my two favorite pooches that are as sweet as can be, a passion for creating and cupcakes !!!

[Cynthia B.]

I'm thankful for my family, my husband's job, my crafting time (when I can get it), the freedoms and opportunites my kids now have that I didn't growing up. And I could go on and on. Basically, I'm very blessed, and I'm grateful for that.
Thanks to you, Rebecca, for a chance for some goodies. :)

[Jill]

Wow that was quite the list up there...
Today I am thankful for: A family who loves me (including a mother-in-law who is one of my best friends), My husband & I both have good jobs that we love, we have a roof over our heads & cars without any major problems to get where we're going, a fridge & pantry full of food (including extras that we get just for donations & food drives), good health, and the companionship of our little zoo of critters.

[Anthea Peterson]

I am thankful that my children can grow up in a free country, thankfull that I have my man, thankful that I have a healthy and happy family and thankful that I found scrapbooking for it has brought me many opportunities and so many new friends, some I will meet and some I wont, but they are still my friends =)

[Monica B]

I am thankful for my awesome family, my warm and cozy house, my education (I am graduating in December!), good friends, a car that runs, and scrapbooking!

[wendi r]

thankful for sooo much.. My daughter asked us each what we were thankful at dinner.. I said my family, and our home.. I couldn't ask for much more

[Paula G]

I am very thankful that my family is healthy and happy. We have had our share of health issues this year and it makes me appreciate the gift of good health more than ever.

[Karrie]

Thanks for sharing your thankful list!! At this time I am most grateful for my father-in-laws help and that we didn't lose our home this year. Also, thankful for connecting with old school friends on facebook and for their prayers. Especially thankful that God is my life, hears my prayers and forgives me. And that I finally got a job, even though it's a seasonal job with an expiration as they put it, I have alot to be thankful for. Thank you!!

[Amanda H]

I am thankful for a great family, a job I love, the greatest friends, and the best dogs ever. It's as simple as that!

[Jenny Alfonso]

I am thankful for my husband and my 2 great kids :)

[Debra]

I am thankful my wonderful husband has a good job, I have two fabulous kids and a warm house in which I can scrap, sew and cook good food!

[Judith]

I am especially thankful today that my son has just got into the school he wanted to go to.

[Abby]

I'm thankful for my family and my health. That's all that matters.

[Liz Chidester]

I am thankful that someone up above is constantly looking out for us. My husband has been out of work since March but we've managed to get side work and odd jobs which pay just enough for us to get by. I am deeply thankful for these miracles.

[Michelle A.]

I am thankful for all of my family's health.

[Olivia L.]

I couldn't agree with you more on those things. It breaks my heart to think of those who do not have the blessings of family and friends. But right now, I am especially grateful to live in a time when medicine is understood, and safely practiced. My little family has been sick for the past week, and it is such a relief to be able to soothe and heal my baby (and my husband). Sound vain? Yeah, it probably is. But what a blessing.

[Janette]

I am thankful for my health and the freedom that allows me to creative and love those around me.

[Leah the Orange]

beautiful pages from the gang here!
i am thankful for finding some peace in a crazy world. life may be hectic, but it's flippin' fantastic with a hubbin who loves me, a son who's learning to be his own person, and a kitty who adores her family. the rest of the good stuff is all just the gravy. :)
