because dinner at candle light is more fun
because it doesn't rain often and when it does we must play
because we love photo booth
and fishy faces {sort of}
*********************
I am thankful for a beautiful weekend
I am thankful that my sister-in-law and soon to be brother-in-law watched our children... overnight!
I am thankful for the alone, uninterrupted time with my husband
I am thankful for the rainy day that forced us to snuggle by the fire and watch 2 movies
I am thankful for my strong will to take sugar out of my diet {4 days in a row so far} and gluten and dairy.
We played in the rain this weekend too :) Glad you got a night away!
ReplyDeleteDinner by candle light is such a simple pleasure... I wish I remembered to do it more often. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the fishy face, Karen. : )
ReplyDeleteWe went GFCF for 6 months. I had a bunch of resources if you want them: Books, recipes, websites, etc. Let me know. : )
Hugs!
Awww way to appreciate.

I want a candle light dinner!! :)
ReplyDeletecandle lit dinners are definitely more fun! we came home to no electricity in our house on wed, we went out for dinner but lit all the candles in our house for the rest of the evening it was lovely. keep up the great will power, no sugar,gluten or diary, you are amazing karen!
ReplyDeleteI sold our light in our dining room (it wasn't our style) and now we have to have candlelight dinners whenever we sit down together. It is so fun. I love the rain too. Four days without sugar - yay for you.
ReplyDeleteWow. Look at you. I wish I had that much self-control to stop eating sugar, dairy, and gluten.
ReplyDeleteAnd snuggling with a movie is my ultimate favorite!
Love this list! Reminds me of 1 Thessalonians 5:18. My boys can't pass a water puddle without jumping in it, and you know what...I let them! Puddles are for splashing :) Great photos!
ReplyDeletelove this list! you are beautiful, and so are your children!! im so glad that you had some alone time with your hubby, that is exactly what you need, lady!
