Holiday Traditions & Day Five of Thankfulness

My mom, sisters, and I enjoyed a relaxing day walking around the Hen House Holiday Celebration yesterday. It's a family tradition of ours...we go every year! If you haven't been, you are missing out. It's only $5 (if you buy your ticket in advance at Hen House), and you get to "sample" food after food after food. People, most of these samples are HUGE! You get SO stuffed, you could puke. Some are even samples to take home. A few samples I got to bring home: cans of soda, mini boxes of cereal, whole cups of yogurt, granola bars, avocados, red pears, etc. It was so delicious, and the perfect start to our holiday season.

So today, I am thankful for time with my mom and sisters. I'm thankful for a husband who loves staying home to play fort with our sick kiddos. And I'm thankful for holiday traditions.

Day Four of Thankfulness

I am so thankful that my grandparents are still living, doing well and live in town to love on and spoil my kids. It means so much to me that my kids not only have a close relationship with them, but absolutely adore them. I'm thankful my grandparents are crazy about my kids as well! Here are a few pictures of my kids with their Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa.

I am also very thankful that my other grandparents and around to love on and spoil my kids...I just wish they lived closer so they could get to know my kids more! I know my kids love them all, and I'm so thankful for all their love!

Day Three of Thankfulness

Today I am thankful for pizza and movie nights with my family. None of us were feeling well last night so it was nice to just stay in, cuddle on the couch and watch movies. Everyone should have those every once in awhile.

We had a coupon for Marco's Pizza, which just so happens to be our favorite pizza place! It's so good, and they add different seasonings to the crust for free! Yum! If you haven't tried it yet, I highly recommend it! By the way, their customer service is great, too!

Day Two of Thankfulness

I'm so thankful for freebies! I have been able to get SO much for free for our families this year...some without even trying! We've gotten free RenFest tickets, free concert tickets, free movie passes, free coffee samples, free travel cup, free pumpkin patch pass, free beauty/ feminine products, free snacks and food samples, etc...the list seriously goes on and on and on! Most of them are just for 'liking' a page on facebook! How easy is that?! It's awesome and really blesses our family since we are a one-income household. It still allows our family some extra fun stuff to help us not necessarily "feel" the tightness of our budget. Here's what I got in the mail today:

Two free packs of coffee samples from Green Mountain Coffee and two $1 off coupons. If you 'like' them on facebook, you'll be able to participate in their coffee giveaways, which are actually fairly often! Most of the time, they mail you k-cups, which I gladly give to my grandparents...and they get so excited!

AND two free makeup bags full of beauty samples and beauty product coupon books from Target! Oh yeah!

Day One of Thankfulness

I'm so thankful for my two sweet, beautiful kids. They are AMAZING and bless me so much. And I'm so thankful for their deep love for each other. They truly love and care about one another and love playing together!
