Thankful Thursday {2} a link up

Good morning friends!

I trust that you will have a fantastic day!

Today for Thankful Thursday I would like to share about my momma! With it being her birthday this week I thought I'd share about her a bit.

This is my sister, momma and me. They came to visit me while I was in collage last year.
My momma is a wonderful lady and I love her much!
She's kinda a little bit crazy (I come by it honestly) and I love that about here. It's always a fun time to be had when with her. We dance in the kitchen, and talk in weird voices, people looking in often wonder about us. I love that about her.My momma is one of my besties and I'm truly blessed to have her as my momma.

Blessings,
Amber

Thankful Thursday a link up {1}

Hello hello friends!! I have been thinking lately about how there is so much discontent within my life. I see pretty things on pintrest that I so wish I had, or follow blog where the peoples life seem perfect in comparison to myself.
I want to break out of this and see all the people and things around me that I have been so richly blessed with.

So join with me and lets share what we have been blessed with each week or what we are thankful for that week. It can be big or small.
This will be a weekly link up.

The only rules I have is to be open minded and take note of all the little blessings in our lives.
If you wish to follow along so that you remember to link up that would be great.
You can snatch a button so that we can spread the word. Or you can link back in your post so that more people can join in.

caterpillars & a new button

Good morning friends!

Hope today is going to be super awesome for you. I wanted to show you some little visitors we had a daycare yesterday.
It was a little blue caterpillar. There were two of them, it was lots of fun. We also had lots of inch worms that the kids were playing with.

I also wanted to tell ya to be sure to pop by on Thursday because I will be having my first ever link up! (provided I know what I'm doing and it works hee hee). It's called Thankful Thursday, there is a button for it on my side bar if you want to take one and spread the word.

Blessings,
Amber
