belated because it's now saturday morning.
belated because it's been over a month since my last thankful thursday post. oops!
what a week, huh? way too intense. in the midst of bad news after bad news, here are a few things i've been thankful for:
1. a quick trip to lubbock.
i guess this was technically at the end of last week, but it was so fun to see my husband on cloud nine and to see my cousin before she graduates! i'm thankful buckner has offices in west texas, which gave us an excuse to travel to the land of tumbleweed, windmills, and red raiders.
2. carrie's birthday road trip.
carrie took the week off for her birthday and drove across the country from montgomery to norman (13 hours!!) to visit us. she explored okc, met our friends, and even got to experience oklahoma weather. it was great having her here for a few days -- we love visitors! happy 27th, jehle!
3. a meteorologist friend.
you probably know this about me, but i don't do well with storms... which makes living in oklahoma a blast. wednesday night the weather got a little crazy, but thankfully, we were at our missional community with our weatherman friend. you may remember the mosiers from last year's tornado weather. while my husband was doing this
i was inside with my stomach in knots. the weather passed and everything was fine, but i was thankful all over again that if i have to live in tornado alley, at least god gave me a meteorologist friend.
4. syrup.
i don't get to work there anymore, but i got to eat breakfast there 4 times in the last 7 days. i can't help it, y'all. i'm such a fan of this place and i love the people that work there... and i'm thankful for friends that will get up early to eat pancakes with me.
5. baseball.
even though it was much colder this week than it should be this late in april, i was eager to bundle up and get outside -- away from the tv (news) and computer (social media feeds). we took in not one but two baseball games this week, and last night's was even complete with fireworks! is there anything more patriotic?!
what were you thankful for this week?
