Well it's day #3 of my 30 day challenge and as you may have noticed the topic is 'your parents'. I betcha they've been just itching for me to get my blog up for the day although I know my dad hasn't checked my last blog yet because he always has an intelligent fun comment that he leaves on each one... (yes dad I've checked 3 times today to see your reaction to my last blog haha). Thank goodness Lynz and my mom are on top of their game :)
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm pumpkin pie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So first I'm going to do my gratitude thought. I spent most of my day working on an essay that I have due tomorrow morning (no dad I did not leave it ALL for the night before haha). I've been working on bits and pieces for the past week, but it took me till today to actually sit down and stay in my seat till I was done. Today I am thankful for the opportunity I have to go home tomorrow and eat some delicious turkey dinner with my fam. We will miss the Tolman clan dearly, but the positive is that there will be more turkey buns to bring back to Edmonton after the weekend :) sorry Tolman clan :) I LOVE LOVE LOVE eating my mama's home cooked meals! I hope one day my kids and hubby will look forward to my cooking just like my whole family looks forward to the mouth watering smells and tastes that come from mama's kitchen! Now, unlike most people, I also LOVE LOVE LOVE my papa's cooking. It may not occur as often but my papa can make a mean meal of steak and sauteed mushrooms... oh and french onion soup... and tinfoil dinner.... and best of all homemade chimichangas!!! My mouth is watering right now! This will lead perfectly into my day #3 insight....
Dear Parents,
It's hard to put into words the feelings and emotions I have for my parents! They are my best friends and supported me whole-heartedly throughout my life! I loved knowing that my parents would be there to support me in every ball game through high school and even in most of my post-secondary playing. We have shared many wonderful times whether it's a family outing to Waterton, laying on the couch while daddy sits on his computer listening and singing to papa's tunes while trying to work on our harmonizing skills, dancing and singing crazy with mom and her stellar superstar dance skills, or just settling down to watch some sports or good movie! I'm so thankful for the love, support, compassions, guidance and friendship they have both shown throughout my life and I just want them to know I love them ELEVENTY-FOUR!!

Ok, Kiddo, now you've gone and done it!! Thanks for such a nice blog. Even when you already know that your kids love you, it's AWFULLY nice to hear that from them. If you add a few compliments to the equation about your Dad's cooking abilities, it even gets better. So, chimichangas for you this weekend!!!!!
