Goodbye 2017; Hello 2018

With 2017 behind us, this is a good time to reflect on life and remind yourself of the things to be thankful for. So I put a list together of a few things I'm thankful for and what keeps me going in life!

Our Lord
My Family
My Friends
My neighbors and the wonderful neighborhood my hubby, kids and I live in
Our home
Our health
Employment
All the opportunities I've had working with engaged couples and meeting their families
Music! (without it, life would be dull)
Wining and Dining in a nice restaurant (I'm a bit of a foodie and wine snob :-) )
Our yard because I love to spend time in it during Spring/Summer
Being able to get out and run no matter how fast or slow I am.
Having the opportunity to give back when we can

I hope 2018 brings prosperity, laughter, love, lots of great memories and good health to you all!!
