Today I am linkup with Julie Ann Art, adelynSTONE and After Nine To Five in the Give Thanks Link-Up party! Thanks ladies for hosting this wonderful linkup and giving me an opportunity to share some of my THANKS!
{1} My husband + baby on the way – So happy to be growing our family this year and especially thankful to my husband who is my ROCK!
Sneak peek of our maternity photos by Ria Photography!
{2} DSLR cameras – The quality of pictures that you can take with these is just amazing and who doesn’t love a great bokeh effect?
{3} Maternity Jeans – I have some full panel, half, panel, and just plain stretchy ones… either way, I’m thinking I may be wearing these after I have my baby too, HA!
{4} Skype – It’s the BEST way to connect with family and friends because not only can you hear a familiar voice but you can see emotions too – priceless!
{5} Sponsors – Thank you SO much for supporting me throughout the years! You make my right side (of my blog) soooo purty!
{6} Friends who have thrown and attended our baby showers – We’ve been so blessed to have 3 separate showers and have been showered with so many things for our baby boy. I absolutely can’t wait to use them all!
{7} Online shopping – Although there is a fear of having to return items, it’s also nice to just be able to shop at the tip of your fingers and not have to drive to stores sometimes. I am thinking I will be especially thankful for this next year since I’ll have a newborn baby!
{8} Good food – Especially ones that have satisfied my pregnancy cravings this year. 🙂
{9} Social Media (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest) – What would I do without you? Be a lot more bored, that’s for sure.
{10} YOU! – THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog, commenting when you feel inclined, and letting me know your thoughts! I have met SO many great friends through here and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. And lurkers, I know you’re out there, don’t be afraid to leave some love as well from time to time, would love to get to know you too! 🙂

Aw, what a beautiful list you’ve got there! I definitely am thankful for my DSLR camera! Best investment I ever made 🙂
Your photoshoot looks amazing! Can’t wait to see the rest of them!
Love you Sandy! I am so happy for your blog because it has allowed me to get to know you. Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving!
such a great list – and i love all the pics, friend.
and i’m thankful for YOU! love you!!!!
This is a wonderful list! So thankful for your friendship and getting to talk pregnancy with you! Your maternity pictures are AMAZING!!! You look STUNNING!
I’m also thankful for my husband working 16 hours a day so I can stay home with our little one. The man who comes home at midnight and says, “You make it all worth it.”
I’m thankful for my Great God Who is able to do more than I can ever ask or imagine.
And I’m also thankful for our little one on the way. January can’t come soon enough (especially with this growing belly! 🙂
OK, OK, I’m a total lurker. But I never have anything witty to say so I just keep to myself. I am of course thankful for my wonderful family. My high school sweetheart husband and sweet little boy truly complete me.
I am thankful for this blog too. I remember you posted way back when about bibs you had sewn from a Prudent Baby tutorial and it made me think, “I can do that!”. It took a while, but I finally made it to a JoAnn class and now I’m just in love with sewing. Who knew? Plus there’s tons of good food here all the time, which you know I love. Maybe one day, you’ll get me to be fashionable too 🙂 Happy Thanksgiving!
