A Thankful Woman's Book of Blessings

My dear blogging friend, Judy, over at A Thankful Woman's Book of Blessings, hosts this meme every Wednesday. Simply list five things (or a prayer or any thoughts) for which you are truly thankful this week. Voicing my thanks helps put my life in perspective & realize that, no matter how bad things might be, there is still MUCH good surrounding me.

1) I'm thankful for a GREAT trip to San Diego for my cousin's wedding. It was four days full of fun...rehearsal dinner, wedding, reception, & brunch, as well as a trip to the beach & lots of other fun site-seeing.

2) I'm thankful Casinodad was okay w/ The Princess & me going to the wedding & that he had a good time w/ the boys here at home.

3) I'm thankful we made all our flight connections & had safe travels on all flights (although the first one was quite loud w/ a bunch of almost drunken guys going to a bachelor party in Vegas & four business men in the rows behind us who talked the whole flight. Seriously, I knew women can talk a lot, but four men talking NONSTOP for 4 1/2 hours!)

4) I'm thankful for all the new experiences The Princess had on our trip...flying in an airplane, going to the beach, etc. The joy on her face just warmed my heart.

5) I'm thankful for all the faith I witnessed in all those who were a part of the wedding. My cousin & his new wife are so grounded in their faith & it spreads through all those around them.

Sounds like an awesome trip! Your experience on the plane is kind of funny.

It fills my heart with JOY to hear of a young couple who is grounded in and embracing their faith in marriage!!! So glad you and The Princess had this special time...minus the yacking guys on the plane...UGH! LOL That's so true though...on Sundays after Church, it's usually us wives who are trying to get the men to quit chatting so we can go home and make lunch, hee hee.
I didn't realize that it takes 4 1/2 to fly cross-country. Wow.
I've always wanted to see the Pacific Ocean. Did you take any pics?
