Thankful

There are so many reasons to be thankful this year! I love spending time reflecting on all the good (and even the not so good) moments of the past year and thought I'd share them with you!

2011 has been one of the most life changing years of my entire life. :)

*I finished out my last year at St. Paul School and enjoyed all the memories made there with the faculty, staff, students, and parents! I will always have a special place in my heart for the St. Paul Saints!

*I planned the wedding of my dreams and married my best friend in June! Brian is such a wonderful, loving, and supportive husband! He works hard to provide for us both and I am thankful for him! I am trying to help out as much as I can as a substitute teacher this year! I've subbed four times so far! HAHA!!!

*I am so thankful for Baby Higgins who is currently kicking and moving up a storm! I have been feeling flutters for a few weeks now (well I didn't know it was the baby at the time) but this week the baby has been very active. "UMMMM HELLO MOM DON'T FORGET I AM IN HERE!" I am 20 weeks along and so thankful to be at the half way point! I go on December 1st with Brian for our ultrasound but sorry folks we aren't announcing until Christmas! I had the crazy idea of us not finding out either, but changed my mind two days ago! I can't wait to find out.

*I am thankful for the 90 years my Grandpa lived on this earth! I am also thankful he was able to be at our wedding and dance with me! A memory I will always cherish!!!! He is in Heaven now watching over all of us! :)

*I am thankful for my friends. Many were married this year, several had babies in 2011, and there are even some expecting in 2012! I couldn't ask for a better group of friends. I am thankful they are always around with a smile, hug, and words of advice!

*I am thankful for family as well! I have the best parents in the world! I also have the best in-laws ever too!!!! Thankful for my five nephews as well!!!! Jared and Jacob, Logan and Tyson, and Topher are the cutest boys in  the world! Will Baby Higgins be a boy or a girl???? I can't wait!

Thankful for so much this year!
