Thankful Thursday



A few years ago, I had a blog (which no longer exists...lol) and I had Thankful Thursday each week. I want to bring that back for several reasons.

1. To remind myself that there are so many things, no matter how small, to be grateful for.
2. To hopefully encourage others who may be having a difficult time.

So, why don't you all join me? Let's each list 3 things that we are thankful for today!


  • Today I am thankful that I am done with this semester in school. I accomplished what I wanted academically and even more than my initial goal for this semester.

  • I am thankful for a family that loves me faults and all. They support me when I need it and know when to lay low when I am overwhelmed. My children offer to help when they see me stressed and though we can drive each other crazy at times I would never change it.

  • I am thankful for the miracle that is life. Everyday there is something to look forward to. Whether it is a show, a book, a walk outside, checking the mail, talking to a friend, there is ALWAYS something no matter how minuscule to look forward to.

Be thankful! Be Blessed! Bless someone else, it will make you feel better. Love those around you. Enjoy nature and the miracle that it is. 

On a side note: Positive thoughts and prayers are appreciated for a family friend whose son is having surgery today. He is having a kidney removed. 

Enjoy your day and go find something new to see, do, look at, or learn about. 

Love to you all.

We woke up this morning to such cool weather! As I went to let the dog out this morning I actually felt a chill. It was so nice! I had to stand out there and just feel the breeze and smell the air. Having had over 100 degree temperatures since April it is so nice to have a glimpse of fall weather. At noon today the temp in the car read 67 degrees! Love it! Fall is my favorite season. It may because my birthday is in the fall, or the changing of the leaves, the crispness of the air, the holidays and family and friends, football season, and oh so many more things that I absolutely adore. Technically we still have 3 weeks but I am going to take advantage of the weather and start some of my annual fall activities. Today we will be baking homemade granola bars and making homemade play dough in fall colors. I bake A LOT in the fall so local friends be ready for lots of goodies. My famous Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies, homemade caramel popcorn, and much more...lol. Do not be surprised...

Welcome!

Hello All and Welcome to All Things: Kendrick Family.  I am Sharon and married to my best friend Kevin. We have two kiddos: our son, Keonte, 10 (soon to be 11) and our daughter Cheyanne, 7. So our house is hardly ever dull. I enjoy reading blogs and have been tempted for a couple of years to attempt a blog of my own. A few friends have inspired me to try and well, here we are. I thought of many different topics and subjects to blog about but could not decide on one in particular. We are a non-denominational Christian family with multi racial backgrounds and we have been a homeschooling family for over 7 years but this year we are going to attempt public school. That in itself could be a blog...lol. I am currently undergoing a fitness journey to lose weight and become fit. We are a military family and recently moved to Texas from Las Vegas. I am currently going back to college for myself in an attempt to finish my degree. I enjoy couponing "realistically" not "extreme...
