Day 5: Misc. Blessings

Today I am grateful for...

Sleeping In - I hear this is a commodity we won't always have, so I'm learning to take full advantage of lazy Saturday sleep ins and enjoy it while we have it.

A Weekend With My Husband - this is one of those rare fall weekends that Shaun and I have no plans, no where to really be and can just spend every second hanging out together. I love quality time with him and weekend long dates!

Our Dog - Oscar is such a joy. I never thought I'd hear myself say that about a pet. I usually pretend to be put out by him on early cold mornings, but the truth is, I actually do enjoy his enthusiastic greetings and his total excited about getting his walk. He cracks me up! He's pretty adorable too.

A Warm House - I am so very grateful for heat in our home on cold days! Fires, in our fireplace and just being warm in general when it is cold out.

Blankets - I realize so many people even in our own country don't have the most basic of needs met and when I really stop and think about it, I am blessed beyond measure! I LOVE blankets. The more piled on in the winter, the better.

Saturday Brunch - Shaun and I have a weekly tradition of breakfast out. I love that time with him. Cracker Barrel is one of my favorites, but really any breakfast spot is wonderful and cozy. It's our favorite meal of the day!
