I Love...

One thing about driving so much for work, you get time to think. Today's toughts were centered around happy feelings...thoughts...things I love.

I love the way Avery's body molds into mine when she snuggles,
the way Kyndra's smile lights up the room,
that I can call my husband my friend.

I love the smell of popcorn,
fresh cut grass,
and campfire smoke.

I love the community of being "from" Montana,
and the community I have found in Oregon.

I love driving out of town and seeing the three majestic mountains
and driving into town and seeing our little valley.

I love wearing my dad's t-shirts,
sitting amongst my mom's plants,
and eating out of my parents' refrigerator.

I love drifting down a lazy river,
navigating through challenging rapids,
and sleeping next to the sound of running water.

I love burrying my face in the fur of a big dog,
walking on top of "our" hill and breathing the wind.

I love finding old photographs that make me smile!

Love this post!!! I'm glad you had time to think such happy thoughts. I love that you remind us to be thankful for those things we take for granted.

Looks like pure joy on that river.
