Thankful Thursday....?

When I was typing the title of this post I was saying it as Ron Burgundy would. (I'm Ron Burgundyyy......?) Is Thankful Thursday a thing? Or can it only be Throwback Thursday? Well it's now a "thing." I'm trying to make it happen.


1. I am SO obsessively thankful for Ri's adorable little personality. She sings constantly and loves to listen to music and dance. We had dinner at Texas Roadhouse tonight for an early Mother's Day get together. As we were leaving, the employees started doing their line dance so I bounced Rilyn around and she busted out some serious moves for everyone watching. It was so cute I peed a little. Okay maybe not but it was pretty darn adorable.

This monkey loves Texas Roadhouse!

2. I am thankful for all of the wonderful love and appreciation I received this week for Teacher Appreciation Week. My students and their parents always do such a great job of making me feel valued and appreciated, but this week was extra special! Monday I walked in to a huge poster hanging up in my classroom that was put together by my students and our room mom. Not only that, but at the end of the day I received a beautiful bouquet of gift card flowers. AND one of my workshop students brought me adorable little gifts each day with a cute saying on them. Her mom has spent some quality time on Pinterest. Love it. :) AAAAANNNDDD PTO hooked us up with a nice card and some sweet gift cards. AAAAANNNNDDD they provided us with doughnuts, Del Taco, and all sorts of other healthy treats throughout the week.

 

 

 

3. I'm super duper thankful for my sweet boyfran. That's right, I said boyfran. I am usually super cautious of posting personal (to me that's very personal) stuff on Facebook or on the blog because I just don't like people knowing my s***. BUT I feel like he deserves some praise and Rilyn and I definitely deserve someone like him in our lives. He lives in American Falls, which is about 3-3/12 hours from here and we were not able to visit each other last weekend. We were both kinda bummed but still trying to be optimistic. Well last Friday, he sent me some flowers "just because" with a really sweet note intended for me and Rilyn. She thinks he's like the funniest (looking) person ever. :) It's great. We are taking our first road trip to see him this weekend so it should be interesting!

4. AH! I almost forgot. I entered (for the first time ever) to win a giveaway on Thisisboise.com and guess whaaaaaat? I won! I think I am still in shock because I NEVER win anything. Ever. I won the "Mother's Day Giveaway" which includes a bunch of spa stuffs at this sweet salon, a $100 gift card to Muse Bistro and Wine Bar, and a necklace from a jeweler! I'm friggin stoked. 

P.S. I'm thankful for my sister in law who has taken tons of adorable pictures of Rilyn recently! Here are just a few. I'll post more later. :)
