“Facebookers” is that even a word? I probably made it up. Chris likes to make up words. He is rubbing off on me. Since I have a blog it is nice to use it for things more important that craft projects from time to time. So I wanted to briefly mention two things going on...
Thank you so much for promoting The Little Light House and our efforts to win the school $500,000! As a tuition-free school ran only on donations, this money will really be a blessing to the students!
Voting takes so little time and we need the votes!
Each person (you do not have to be from Tulsa!) can vote FIVE times! After voting, please use the fshare button on the voting page to encourage your friends to vote too and pass along this wonderful opportunity!
Also, you can click a “reach out” tab to access a direct link to share and the HTML coding to put a banner on your blog!
Thanks again, and God bless!
Just wanted to update you, Little Light House has 43,166 votes!
Thank you so much Ashley for taking time to promote kohls cares. The parents, students and staff are so appreciative of your support. Each vote is important!!
Facebooker’s is definitely a word. It means “one who facebook’s”. I’m pretty sure it’s in Webster’s.
I would pack a camera (at least 1) for the kids to use, and a notebook, for them to “journal” about their trip. Also, I always ask my kids questions (what is your favorite…) and write down their answers. Pipe cleaners, tape, glue stick, old magazines to let them make collages in their notebook. We always play I spy when trying to take up time. I would also take a couple of manilla envelopes and fill it with brochures, ticket stubs etc from your vaction, then on the trip home they could put that in their notebooks to have a souvenir of their trip. Good luck!!!
I am not on facebook either. 
Glad to know someone else who’s not. Wish the voting wasn’t only on facebook. Kelly
UPDATE: The giveaway is now closed, Heather has the last counting comment “I would thank my amazing husband, my boss, my awesome co-worker Rachel, my mother in law and the guy who held the door open for me at the coffee shop this morning.” So going along the same lines as I mentioned in the...

the five people i can thank today are: my hubs, my two sisters, my mom and my dad. thank them for being them. and loving me as i am
Love those alphabet notes. It IS hard to come up with something to write every day of the week! So many times I just don’t send a note!
And what a lovely idea, random thanks. I think too often I forget to thank the people I love just for being them! Thank YOU for the inspiration today!
Oh, and I will thank: My husband, my children, and my 3 close friends, all for loving me!
That is such a sweet and simple idea. Now if only I had zinnias as pretty as yours.

I can thank my husband for just being that, my oldest daughter for being nice this morning, my mother for babysitting my smaller children everyday while I work, my cousin for being a great friend even when we live 6 hours away, and my best friend for always being my sounding board.
Hello,
First, I’ll take the chance to thank YOU for writing this inspiring post and sharing a bit of goodness with us in the blog-world. Second, I’ll take the opportunity to thank my mother. Mom’s can always use another thank you. Third and fourth I will thank my new friends who have been my family as I have been living abroad. And Fifth, I will thank a stranger for a random act of kindness like holding open a door, or making more space on the sidewalk. For us big city dwellers (I’m in London) those little things make a big difference. And, always, thanks to God.
Love the pics! I will thank my 3-year old today for playing so nicely with his sister. I will thank the childcare providers at the YMCA for allowing me time to work out. I will thank the librarians for their great work with my kiddos. I will thank my husband for coming home early and I will thank the director of the finance class we’re taking tonight.

I’d thank my sweet husband who goes to work and works hard everyday so I can stay home with our sweet baby girl. My mom – now that I’m a mom and I know what she did for me everyday…enough said! My play group Mommies for making the transition to motherhood so easy and wonderful. The lady at the grocery store who bags my groceries for me every week as my hands are full of baby, diaper bag, coupons, etc., etc., etc. And finally, my sweet baby girl who shows me everyday, in a very real way, how much my Savior loves me and how I can never thank Him enough for His unconditional love.

The days go by so fast that I find it hard to remember to sit down & think of all the people we are grateful to have in our lives. I’d like to thank you first and foremost YOU for reminding us of this on a random wednesday. I can’t possibly think of only four others to thank, there is SO many people who have changed my life for the better over the past four months. So, I’ll state four groups that have touched my heart as well as my families & deserve a huge thanks for pushing us forward. My family, The Gap, The local fire department, & the American Red Cross.
People are amazing in what they do each & everyday.
I could thanks my boss, my mom & dad, the rescue coordinator for my foster pup, and the dog-sitter I have lined up for the weekend.
funny that you would post this today because i already sent my husband an email thanking him for being him this morning!
i also need to call or email, my mom and dad and my mother and father in law for helping support their daughter and son in everything they do. if it weren’t for them we would not have such a blessed home. thank you for bringing this to all of our attentions!! so thats SIX people
Such awesome goodies!! And I have lots of thanking to do… my mom, dad and sister have all been helping me prep our house to be ready to sell. My husband has put up with the OCD side of me, which has taken over since putting the house on the market. And my little girl deserves some thanks for just being adorable and mine!
I would thank my husband for Working so hard so i can be home with our son. I would thank my Brother for being my best friend and always making me laugh. I would thank both my in laws For being amazing grandparents and helping us out so much when i was pregnant and my husband was laid off, I would thank my mom for working so hard when we were growing up to support us. I would thank the man who held the door open for me when he saw me struggling with bags and a baby in my arms. Mostly I would thank God for giving me all these blessings.
My husband, my aunt, my best friend that lives MILES away, my pastors, and my former colleague.
GOD, mom, husband, son, and baby girl
My hubby, Mom, Mother-in-law, and two of my closest friends!

I need to thank my parents, my in-laws, my grandma (all for the sweet things they do for my kids); the preschool director at church (she’s a wealth of information); and the cashier at Target who always does a good job of sacking up my groceries each week (she doesn’t pile heavy stuff on top of, say, my salad greens and grapes.)
I’d thank my husband, mom, dad, friend & boss.
I love the bottles for vases! Great idea! I would thank my parents, my sisters, my in-laws, my best friends and my co-workers. More than five people, but all of them are deserving of thanks!!
What cute vases! I’m gonna have to try those one of these days.
My 5 would be:
My husband- for loving every part of me
my daughter- for being mine, I am beyond blessed to be her mom
my mom- for giving the best advice and being an amazing woman
my dad- for always being there for me
God- for his grace, for his goodness. I am genuinely thankful!
God, Husband, child, walking partner, co-workers
My God – who is the giver of all Good things.
My husband – for keeping me “real” every day, I love him!
My kids – they are the loves of my life.
My family – they are there for me always with grace & mercy & laughter.
My church – which is a firm foundation to build on and it introduced me to the greatest friends in my life that I can count on!
my husband, my kids, my mom, my friend Kim, and my neighbor.
Another great idea, thanks for sharing!
I could thank my hubby, my mom, my dad, and several friends.
my husby, my kids, my parents, my boss and my dear friend Shara… gosh so many others who probably don’t even know how much richer they make my days.
My husband…for letting me sleep in. My sister for making me laugh so, so hard every day. “The Jennies”, i.e. my two bestest friends. One for having the most positive outlook on life EVER, and the other for having a baby. I know she didn’t really do it for me, but I’d still like to thank her for that bundle of joy. And finally, my neighbor. Between the two of us, we have Too Many children, and, honestly, I think we co-parent all these kids with each other more/better than we do with our spouses.
I could thank, my boyfriend, my mother, my father and my wonderful friends taylor and kim.
I may just do that!
super cute idea, today!! I would thank hubby and 4 kiddos–each who lights up my life!
I would like to thank my husband, my mom, my best friend, and my 2 boys.
Cute idea! I was just thinking of how to thank my mom so this is really cute.. I would thank my mom, friend Kim, Bestie Kristin, M.I.L., and friend Alicia… all people who have helped me get through my husband’s deployment this summer.
My%20sisters%20Jenn%2C%20Vanna%2C%20and%20Ashley%3B%20my%20mom%20and%20my%20best%20friend%20in%20Colorado…%20for%20loving%20me%20despite%20all%20of%20my%20flaws%20and%20failures.%20%3A)
You have the cutest ideas! There are probably a million people I could thank these days but the ones that really stick out are my mom, my dad, my sister Megan, my sister Rachel, and Sara G. They have helped my family out in more ways than one as we have gone through a rocky year financially and quite honestly I will never be able to thank them all enough.
What a cute idea! And so thoughtful.
5 people…I would thank my husband, my twin girls, my mom, my best friend, my assistant at work, and the girls new teacher….ok that was 6, is that ok?
Thanks for the giveaway!
This is a duplicate of the previous comment…
My sisters Jenn Vanna and Ashley…my mom and my best friend in Colorado…for loving me despite all of my flaws and failures.
I would thank Andy, Enzo, Nada, Jan and John. Husband, son, my mom, his mom, and a friend. These are on my list for today. Tomorrow is a different story.
The first time my parents ever took my sisters and I out to a nice restaurant, they gave us a set of rules to abide by. Most importantly, they told us to always thank the waiter/waitress.
WELL. As those who have eaten at fancy places will know, the waiter/waitress stops by the table quite often when you’re at a fancy place. We peppered the waitress with so many obedient “thank you’s” that night she eventually couldn’t help herself from laughing at us (in a good natured, not condescending type of way).
As young as I was, when the waitress finally cracked I was able to perceive how funny we must have been!
To this day, I tend to over-thank at restaurants, so I guess it stuck!
If I had to thank non-strangers right now I’d thank both my parents profusely. They have given me everything plus more (and while some of it has been material things, the most important things they’ve given me are non-tangibles). I guess I’d also thank my siblings (if I have to pick more people) for keeping me in check, and my best friends for being the best ever.
My husband for being my partner in everything. My mom for seeing when I’m too stubborn to spend money on nice things for myself (she funded my trip to your SnapShop!). My friend for always lending her ear. My dogs (ok, they’re not people but still) for reminding me not to take things too seriously. And finally, the nice gentleman in the Army uniform who rushed to hold open the door for me when I had my hands full.
five people i would thank are: my mom, my dad, my husband, my sister, my children
My loving hubby, my wonderful kids, my understanding parents, my amazing aunt, and my special friends!
I would thank my Mother, my Father, my Husband, my daughter, and my best friend for brightening my life each and every day.
What a wonderful idea. My thanks goes out to my 2 wonderful co-workers who have made my maternity leave and return a nicer than usual event, my husband for loving me, my baby boy for bringing joy into my life and my BFF for being my touchstone through it all.
Oh My! I would thank my boss, who’s job is enabling me to stay at home with my little, my husband, for loving me, my little, for being such a great napper today, the mailman, for putting up with the overgrown rose bush that blocks our mailbox, and my Daddy for the Sonic cherry limeaide! I would also thank you for choosing me as the winner of this drawing…I love Shabby Chic Crafts!
Thank you God, for this beautiful morning, thank you husband for working so hard, thank you dad for supporting me, thank you vanilla latte for being amazing and thank you Ashley for making think about things I am thankful for!
What a cute idea! I would thank my husband, my mother and father-in-law, my dad, and my good friend Joanna.
My maternal fetal doc who this AM said the girls (in my belly) looked awesome and that this would be our last app. The nurse who did the NST and said their heartbeats were perfect.

And God/Fate/the Universe for giving me such a gift.

2) His bus driver
3) The UPS guy (new lens–woot!)
4) My left-behind-while-big-brother-goes-to-school 3yr old
5) The sympathetic mom I met today who understands how hard it is to send your child out into the world.

SUch a good reminder! SOmetimes we can get so wrapped up and forget all we have to be thankful for!

Great idea – Sometimes when my kids are starting to go bonkers I start saying thank you for the little things they are doing right – “thank you for washing your hands, ” “thank you for playing quietly for 10 minutes” – I really think it helps – I will thank my husband, my parents, and my siblings

Yes. But this is the first time- I’ve been keeping up with your blog for almost a year, and today is the first time it’s showed me when you posted something new. Hooray!
I use Safari as my feed reader. I’ve never had problems with your feed, though I’ve only been reading a couple of months.
I am so excited they got this worked out!! Your blog however, is a permanent site on my iPhone, so I checked it everyday anyway. BUT, I’m glad it works now!
YAY! so happy its on google reader! woop!
It’s on mine too! Yay! (And this is Leslie Poe, formerly Horn, from OBU! Not sure if I’ve ever commented before but LOVE reading!)
Showing up on my blogspot blog roll! Yay!
I have followed for a while, but have always just had your page bookmarked and have a button on the top of my browser I click on when I check it everyday. I am trying to add you to my reader, but am having some difficulties. When I click ‘subscribe’ I am taken to a crazy page with a bunch of gibberish on it. Maybe I am doing this completely wrong…help! I want you on my reader!
Yes! I’m excited!
It is updating on Google … and on my blog! Yeah!
Yay! You’re back on my blogroll! haven’t been there for months!

yes, your link is refreshing itself now when a new post by your hand is published!
This is just a test to see if Google Reader is actually working on my blog again or if it is another freak one time thing. If it works…there will be happy dancing happening around here…

I got this one today! Usually, I get them sporadically, in increments of 10. Yay – crossing my fingers!
Works here too!!
Yeah!! It worked. I unsuscribed from the “old” feed and made sure to keep the “new” one.
Yep, I got a whole slew of posts today. I’m SO excited!
Google Reader hasn’t shown me any of your posts for an incredibly long time–there was one day a while back that it updated with a ton of posts, but then nothing again for months. Today I suddenly had about 10 or 15 posts show-up again! Hopefully they keep coming in ’cause I forget to look at your blog when they don’t (but don’t worry, my wife actually keeps up with your pictures & asks me all the time, “Did you see what Ashley posted today?!)
I got this post in my google reader
i got this on my google reader… i got several from you today, although dated back a while.
