Counting them...

SO one of my friends wrote about her blessing so I thought I would also share some of mine:


11) My besties Kat and Brittany these to keep me grounded can't even tell you how much I love these girls they make me laugh when I need it the most but are still there to listen when I just need to cry. I can't thank them enough. I love that we get each other so much that we can have complete conversations without even speaking. (it really weirds people out) we just clicked and I am so glad that God put them in my life.
10) my Gamma Chi Sisters! I love these girls so much I know that we will come and go out of each others lives but I know that we will always be sisters and we share a bond that can't be explained you just have to be a sister to know what we are talking about I care deeply for these ladies and they have been so great one of the best decisions of college
9) growing up in a christian family this is a very old picture of our family at a Homecoming at Martin Baptist Church. the Lord has blessed us so much I can't even start to explain how...
8) my sweet little Cash Money! this little red head has stolen my heart. his blue/green eyes and that smile...and he can say Ashy now and oh my those kisses. He is a little heartbreaker!!
7) My Tripp I honestly can't remember life before this little man came to our family. This little man keeps us on our toes and we never know what he will say next. He gets it honest. I love getting to see his little personality develop and watch him learn and discover. I enjoy getting to read books to him and play matching games and puzzles. I can't wait to get to watch him grow into the young man that God is going to make him.
6) I am blessed that I have fun memories of moments like this with my sister we had a great friendship as children even though she bossed me around most the time but I loved when we got to do funny things like this! and as we got older I begged to go everywhere with her lol then as she moved of to college I loved when she came home or we got to go see her because we keep getting closer and closer, Then she got married to an Amazing man and I got a brother and now my sweet nephews! I love my sister she is my best friend AUDREA thank you for asking for a sister I hope you weren't disappointed...jk
5) my amazing grandparents Esther and Travis McMillen I was blessed to get to have my Granny Mc for 16 years...even when doctors said she would die 3 years before I was born. She was an amazing woman and the love of God was shown in her. My papaw mc still makes me smile I remember sitting in his lap and watching westerns and him always offering me a dip of snuff. They had five amazing children Sarah, Linda, Ronald(not pictured but his son Justin is) Jerry, and my Daddy (Tim) and they raised them in a caring, loving yet strict home where Christ was the center of their lives.
4) Parents that still love each other! I am blessed with a mother and father that are still very much in love the picture below is from my Mom's senior prom. and to quote my Dad " I love her more everyday" so after 34 years that is a lot of love :)
3) my dad I have always been a daddy's girl. when my mom was going to college I got to spend a lot of time with my Dad as he had just went into full-time ministry. I remember going to JR market and getting corn dog nuggets and visiting the Nursing Home with him. I remember our fishing trip and him trying to get me to play sport. He has always pushed me to do my very best and I am glad that he did...
2) my mom she is so amazing I love this woman and so thankful that I get to call her momma. She is someone i can always talk to no matter what I love how close we have gotten as I have gotten older I love our Mexican meals and shopping trips. She always encouraged me to just do it and not to second guess myself. Whenever I am like I can't do this I'm not good enough or smart enough she is like who says and I thank her for that
1) I am so blessed to a follower of Christ and he has blessed me so much I love him and praise him for all he does for us.
