I see the light!

There is light at the end of the tunnel! The past 6 months have felt like we were traveling through the Seikan Tunnel in Japan. The worlds longest tunnel is about 33 miles long. Yeah, that's what its felt like. And you know when you finally come into the sun, your eyes have to adjust? My eyes are still adjusting! We have SO many things to be grateful for, so I thought I'd list my top 20:

1. Unshaken faith

2. Healthy kids

3. Madly in love with hubby

4. Home in good condition (I did knock on wood when I typed that!)

5. Amazingly supportive family and friends

6. Opportunities to serve

7. A job Ryan is excited about! HOORAY!

. Upcoming family reunion

9. Clean Sheets: This has to be one of my favorite things in the world. I love climbing into bed after a long day and having freshly cleaned sheets!

9. A reliable car

10. DEBT FREE!

11. Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies: I ate half the dough....the young men atethe rest of the cookies that actually made it to the oven!

12. Clothes that fit

13. Piano and music

14. Healthy parents/grandparents

15. Technology!!! (Thank you blogger!)

16. Favorite Summer Shows

17. Favorite Summer Movie (so far!)

18. Yummy salads

19. Playing soccer every weekend with good friends and a skilled husband

20. Somehow making it 4 months without a job, a salary income, insurance, and making it! We definitely cut a lot of corners (sold Ryan's blue-dart, didn't get birthday/anniversary presents, cut fluff in budget!) and worked our behinds off (not completely off...I have a couple more pounds to go!) We are completely flabbergasted as to how we've not only managed to stay afloat, but paid off all of our credit card debt. We paid our tithing and prayed...A LOT! And we had a lot of prayers being made on our behalf. Thank you everyone for everything! We are truly grateful!

What are you grateful for?
