Thankful Thursday!

So I have been seeing this on many blogs I follow and I thought I have so much to be Thankful for right now I wanted to express them.
I am so Thankful for my husband he is the most patient, understanding, thoughtful, fun loving man I know. No matter what kind of day he has he ALWAYS comes through the door with a smile and the girls completely light up when they hear his voice it has been so amazing to see the love between him and the girls. They both have him wrapped around his finger and I wouldn't want it any other way. Thank You Jeff so much for making us all so happy and for loving us with all that you have.
I am so Thankful for my girls. They have truly blessed us more then we could ever have imagined. I am so thankful they are twins, but yet completely different in every way. Jillian will smile and laugh at anything. Ashlyn is the more cautious one and needs to observe you for awhile before she lets her personality shine. I am so thankful for the way they look at us and just smile. I am so thankful that they will have each other as they grow up and they will always have such a special bond with one another.
I am so Thankful that the girls have wonderful grandparents. With invitro, being on bed rest and then hospital bed rest, then having the girls born prematurely our parents stood by our side and helped us along no matter what we were going through. Jeff and I are both so blessed to have wonderful parents and so thankful for all the love they give Ashlyn and Jillian. We could not have survived this past year without them and so I thank you all, Grandpa and Grandma Heil and Papa and Nana Bueno we love you and are so grateful for everything.
I will leave you all with a copy of lyrics to a song its just one of those songs that puts our life in perspective I am so thankful for everything I have in my life right now. Its a country song I know Jeff you are rolling your eyes, but the girls and I love it they like me to turn it up when it comes on. Its called Alright by Darius Rucker:
Alright lyrics
Songwriters: Rogers, Frank; Rucker, Darius;Alright, alright
Yeah, it's alright, alright

I don't need no five star reservations
I got spaghetti and a cheap bottle of wine
I don't need no concert in the city
I got a stereo and the 'Best Of Patsy Cline'

Ain't got no caviar, no Dom Perignon
But as far as I can see I got everything I want

'Cause I got a roof over my head
The woman I love layin' in my bed
And it's alright, alright

I got shoes under my feet
Forever in the eyes staring back at me
And it's alright, alright

Yeah, I got all I need
And it's alright by me

Maybe later on we'll walk down to the river
Lay on a blanket and stare up at the moon
It may not be no French Riviera
But it's all the same to me as long as I'm with you

May be a simple life but that's okay, yeah
If you ask me baby I think I've got it made

'Cause I got a roof over my head
The woman I love layin' in my bed
And it's alright, alright

I got shoes under my feet
Forever in the eyes staring back at me
And it's alright, alright

Yeah, I got all I need
And it's alright by me
It's alright by me, yeah, yeah

When I lay down at night I thank the Lord above
For giving me everything I ever could dream of

'Cause I got a roof over my head
The woman I love layin' in my bed
And it's alright, alright, alright, alright

I got shoes under my feet
Forever in the eyes staring back at me
And it's alright, alright, alright

Yeah, I got all I need, yeah, I got all I need
And it's alright by me, oh yeah
It's alright by me, yeah, yeah, yeah
