I'm thankful for my personal heros

How important it is for us to recognize and celebrate our heroes and she-roes!--Maya Angelou

In my life I have had many people who have stood by me through the good, the bad the ugly, the beautiful, and still love me even after all that. They deserve to be on my things I'm thankful for list. Boy am I behind! Day 10 today I think, after I list my heros and she-ros I will catch up on my thankful list.
In no particular order....

First. Is my dad Rynn David Nixon, this man is so amazing. He is the opitamy of number one dad. He is a giver. He doesn't ever expect anything in return either. He is the nicest guy too! Ask anyone who knows him to describe him with one word and the first word anyone would speak would be kind. He has given up a lot for his family, and for me. His daughter, and his number one fan. :) I love you daddy!

Second. Is my momma. Tanna Nixon. Oh mom, where do I begin? You are the biggest over achiever I have ever met. And not it a bad way. You want everything to be perfect for everyone and everything even when people don't deserve it you go out of your way to make it perfect. Because that's who you are. You are better than the best of them. The most kind hearted, most beautiful, loving lady that I strive to be like each day. I would consider myself lucky if I one day achieved half the greatness you have. You are my hero. I love you!

Third. My grandparents. Grandpa Terry and grandma Gail. Remind me why you put up with me? I still don't understand.. Only because you will never find 2 better human beings. These 2 people give more than they will ever recieve. That's defiantly a travesty. If I ever become rich and famous I will make sure you get every penny and whatever else you gave away back times 50!!! You 2 are so funny, and always make me laugh! You have let me live in your home, and have accepted me for me. Thank you for always being there! I don't say it or show it enough but I love you guys!

Fourth. My moms brothers and sissy Camille. I love you all so much! Each of you has influenced my life in a way no one else could. I was a HARD kid growing up. Anyone who says I wasn't should be institutionalized. Heck, I probably should have been. Haha anyways, each of these people have been there for me even when others had given up. My auntie Millie was there to talk, not to judge or take sides but to talk and tell me to "buck up little camper" haha I love you camille! And my uncle robbie who has never judged me either. That man is so full of love! My uncle cliff. He is so funny! Haha he always has something to say and always has a
lesson to teach you. These people are so selfless and I love them!

No more numbers....
My husband. Oh how I love this man! I have known him for almost 2 years and he has been there for me. He made me realize there is always beauty to be found everywhere, the silver lining. Even if he has to point it out... He makes me so happy, he puts up with my crazy! Who would have thought! Right? Callan is an amazing person who just loves to love! He loves new challenges and is always pushing me to be a better me. He takes care of me and he likes the same stuff I do!! I am so lucky!

I have few Heros but the people I named are the people who I think should be awarded. I think I will start a campaign so in the dictionary the definition for the word hero says: tanna, Rynn, Gail, Terry, Camille, Robert, cliff and Callan.

Anyways. I have a pretty amazing family. I love them!
I need to finish my thankful list.

Good night and happy 11-11-11 :)

Oh!! And tonight I saw the coolest thing! It's called a lunar halo. They are very rare, and the one tonight was one that occurs 4 times on average per year anywhere in the world. So the fact I saw one tonight was something amazing indeed. I will probably never see another one in my life time. Haha
