27

i thought about writing some sort of super meaningful 'lessons i've learned in 27 years' blog.... but i that seemed like a lotttttt of effort on a tired day.

so. instead you're getting a list of things i'm thankful for in this birthday i just experienced.

*sunny and 67 in juneau, ak on may 1.  last year it was a blizzard.

* this week we have had a work team at camp from one of my supporting churches. it's been fun to spend the week with them, and a blessing to have devotions with them this morning.  they sang to me before breakfast and after lunch.

*birthday waffles.... yes. plural.

*donut holes from the breeze-inn from cayla.

*quite the adventurous boat ride.... the seals were cool to see, but when putting your boat in the water double check the trailer is properly hooked to the tractor..... especially if there are people in it.

*dinner and milkshakes at the hot bit with mark, tonya and kyler.  what a blessing to have mark and tonya in town this past week :) yes, even mark.

*countless cards, texts and facebook posts wishing me the sweetest blessings.

now i am anxiously awaiting the arrival of zach, bethany and kimberly.

i am so blessed and thankful, today and everyday.
