Family

I know I say this a lot, but I honestly have the coolest (and one of the largest) families in the world. I really mean that. Today, after a rather crappy morning, I went to the grocery store to get some snacks for Addison's class and a gift for her teacher. They had some gorgeous mum plants on sale. I hope she likes purple mums. They really are beautiful. I almost bought one for myself to brighten my own day. However.... it turned out it wasn't needed. As I was walking out of the grocery store, I noticed a Peterbilt pickup in the parking lot. I thought about going back in and decided against it, as the kids were already all buckled in. As Fate would have it, as I was backing out.... sure enough.... there was my Uncle Mike. I LOVE UNCLE MIKE!!!! I rolled down the window and hollared at him and we chatted for a couple of minutes. I love my uncles. They ALWAYS brighten my life. ALWAYS. There is never a dull moment when one (or all) of them are around! Thank God for little surprises like Uncle Mike at my new grocery store raving about their meat and produce!! I told you it was AWESOME!! ;)

I always forget about your gratitude blog - since.you.don't.link.to.it. Ergh.

Okay.

How cool is it that you ran into my dad?! That brightens my day too, he's a pretty cool guy. Today's his b-day BTW, so happy b-day Uncle Mike!
