Thankful Thursday

I’m thankful that I changed all my bedding before work this morning so I have the perfect, fresh, fluffy comfy bed to go home to!

I’m also thankful that my mom is coming to visit this weekend :)

I got some new running shoes in the mail today, too!

I’m thankful I have the opportunity to raise two sweet kids while still doing things I enjoy and pursuing dreams. And, of course, for my husband who supports me through it.

I hope Brooke feels better soon!

Never fun when the kids are sick, but how can you turn down cuddles like that!

Always thankful for the wonderful Fiance and kids I get to come home to everyday. No matter how bad the day is, those smiling faces make it all worth while.

A grateful attitude is actually proven to dramatically increase overall happiness levels :) today I am grateful for a great day, my health, and a few people in particular :)

Feel better soon Brooke!! And hang in there mommy Janae!!

I’m thankful for my job today. I got really good news that a big meeting went my way and it’s a big step for me career wise..I’m feeling very proud.

And I’m thankful for my ability to exercise :-)

Boo for Poor Brooke ((hugs)). Yay for new running shoes! A friend who brings you soda when you’re feeling down is a true friend.

Today I’m thankful that I have an awesome coach who listens to me and understands what I mean, or try’s to anyway. I’m thankful that Izzy is a cuddle bug and constantly asks me if I’d like to cuddle on the couch with her. I’m thankful that the weight room was empty today so I got my strength workout done without having to wait for any machines. And I’m thankful of course for your friendship Janae!

Uh ya. Elmo for Brooke, Ryan for you. Win-win.

Sorry Brooke still isn’t feeling well. But I always love an excuse to cuddle my kiddos. Sometimes I go through all the pictures saved on our computer. I love to look back and see where we were in life, how much has changed, my kiddos at different stages. Sometimes it makes me sad. But I always have to remember to not spend too much time reflecting on the past or thinking too much about how when ____ happens in the future, then I will be happy, but to enjoy the journey. One of my favorite conference talks and that is why it is in vinyl on my wall to see every day ;)

Today I am thankful that when my car wouldn’t start (cause the kids went to get something out last night and didn’t shut the door all the way so the battery was dead) that Ross wasn’t far away and could jump start it…and then take me to lunch.

I am also thankful for all the people in my life that are looking out for me, always willing to help and cheer me up. I love my friends. I am thankful for you! Love ya!

Even though I am real stressed about school now, I’m so thankful for the opportunity to further my education!

Today I am thankful I was able to get Katy Perry tickets :) It took an hour on the computer, but I got them!

Thankful for the weather in NorCal because I’ve been doing yoga outdoors (post-run). It’s so nice to soak in the sun!

Aww, having a sick baby is the worst! I hope Brooke feels better very soon!!

Everyday I am thankful that I get to stay at home with my beautiful 4 yr old daughter. Today I was especially thankful that I had time while she was at preschool to treat myself to lunch and a new book. A nice break for myself because usually I spen that time running errands, cleaning up and working out.

Take care of your sweet little one. Breaks my heart.
I am so thankful for so much in my life — my health, my job, my husband and my friends. Even when times are rough, there is always so much to be grateful for!

I LOVE THE PURE CADENCE!! I used to be flow lover- like you :) and my ankles started giving me issues on longer runs, so i switched to the cadence and got the 3s the day they came out and am so obsessed. THey are just like the flow, feel exactly he same and are equally as light, but with a little more bottom support. it rocks.

poor Brookey :( good thing she is super cute and cuddly :)

Oh sick babies/kids! I always get so nervous when they r really sick. I can deal with the crap my husband goes through with his illness but watching one of our kids being sick makes me a nervous wreck.
Enjoy all the sweet cuddles u get. I bet Brooke will be back to feeling good soon! Try a lavender bath for her. Keeps her hydrated and relaxed.

Today I’m thankful for time with my kids & husband. A trip to my super close trader joes and the money to shop! And a free turkey cooking in the oven :) I had a great coupon for it. )

Poor Brooke! I hope she feels better! I am super grateful I just came home to free pizza in my apartment buildings lobby. That was an awesome surprise!

I am thankful for my health and my husband. Oh, and my fur babies. I may not have any actual babies of my own yet but my fur babies come pretty close. Of course, I can’t forget running! I am coming back from a stress fracture so every small run is such a blessing!

awww, feel better Brooke! Today I am thankful for family dinners – my sister in law is coming over for dinner and I am really excited about it!

I am deeply thankful for advances in modern medicine that may allow me to live pain-free. I may have to wait a bit, but what’s a few weeks or months when I’ve been hurting for over a decade? ;-)

I remember finding out abt being pregnant :) So special! And when you write about something being the best ever or funnest ever, etc. I always believe it was/is for you in that moment and sometimes forever. I am the same way. I am so over people being annoyed by it or thinking I’m exaggerating or being dramatic. I’m a very enthusiastic person.

I love little cuddlers! Hope she’s feeling well soon :)

I am thankful my mom joined the gym with me. I am so excited to see her being active. It’s busy season at her busy, but she’s still making her workouts a priority. She’s been getting up to hit the gym at 5:00 AM before work or going after work at almost 9:30 PM.

Love this post! I’m thankful for another healthy pregnancy so far :)

Such a sweet story and sweet memory. Today has rough, so thanks for reminding me to see the good in all. My infertility battle is really wearing on me and I need to be thankful for a healthy body, great husband, and fun job.

Brooke and I have that in common- I’m cuddly when I’m sick too! ;) I’m thankful for all the amazing support I’ve gotten in the last few days after admitting that I’m struggling with disordered eating again!

I am so thankful and blessed to have 2 beautiful children! They are the loves of my life! Hugs to little princess Brooke and her momma today. It is so hard and stressful to see your baby sick.

What an awesome memory!
Have you ran in the pure cadence 2s? I was wondering how the 3s compare. I like the pureflow 2s and purecadence 2s but dont want to splurge on the newer models unless I know they are worth it!

Hope Brookers gets better soon. My little guy had the stomach flu last week and it was no fun.

That is a great memory!!

I would love to see a picture of your entire shoe collection!! It feels like you get a new pair every week, I want to see them all!

I’m thankful for having a gym buddy join me for my run tonight. I thought of this after seeing all the posts about you going to the gym with your sister. And guess what, you’re right, running with a friend makes it so much better! Thanks :)

Potatoes and Sweet Potatoes are sooo easy in the oven, which is why I eat a ton, especially when I am staying away from refined carbs, but need SOME carbs to fuel runs.

I am so glad you did Thankful Thursday instead of Throwback Thursday. I am thankful for so many things. I am always thankful for my family especially my husband and 2 beautiful daughters. Today specifically I am grateful for being called Super Girl on the radio for running in the snow yesterday. It was very exciting and very motivating.

Funny, I found out I was pregnant with my first in the restroom at Target! That’s kind of like Shopko, right? I still smile whenever I drive by that specific Target.

I love this post so freaking much:)

Hoping Brooke feels better soon. And those shoes are totally gorgeous.

I am thankful for a great job (even though I worked 60 hours at it this week).

I LOVE that Sesame Street puts random famous people on it. Then you actually feel “cool” watching it ;)

You are just so cute :) I know it’s tough what you’re going through, but you are really an inspiration and I love how positive you are. I know it can’t be all of the time and that is life, but really you are just a great person it seems like :) I would love to meet you at a race one day if I ever run one out West!!

Today I am thankful for my family, my husband and my friends. I am thankful that I have a job even though sometimes I would much rather be in bed at this time of the morning :) And I am thankful that it is Friday yay! Oh yeah and I am very thankful that I can run!!
