As usual I'm late with my posting. Eh - y'all will get over it right? I like Thanksgiving. It's such a relaxing holiday. This year especially as it was just me and Scott and my parents. We had a really nice day...other than in the morning when Scott and I decided to tackle my parent's Christmas lights. Surprisingly no one fell down, there were very few cuss words and the majority of the lights worked. I'd say that's a success. Anyway, since I neglected to do the daily thankfuls on Fb I thought I'd do a blog post. Sorry if you get bored. You're welcome to quit at anytime.
I'M THANKFUL FOR...
*My handsome, nerdy, understanding, patient, funny husband. I can't even explain how much he means to me and how much I love and adore him.
*My smart, funny, handsome, playful dog. I don't know what we'd do without him. He has brought us so much joy. We are obsessed with him.
*My parents. After Scott, my mom is my best friend. I know I'm too old to be so attached to my mother and need her, but who cares? I'm a Mamma's girl :) Oh and Gary - he's ok too. Just had more tests and is still cancer free. Woo hoo!
*Sue & Scott, Sean & Melissa, Scott & Cecily. They're a lot of fun to hang with and I learn a lot from them.
*Mark, Brian, Kylie, Brady, Cade, Olivia, Lincoln, Lleyten, Taft, Eden, Jaz & McCoy. They are adorable, funny and make me so happy.
*Mom, Dad, Missy, Mel, Ryan, Tom, Tony & Nate. My in-laws are the greatest. They are such wonderful and caring people.
*My friends. I love you and am grateful for you. You make me laugh, you go to lunch with me, and you don't make fun of me (to my face) when I do stupid stuff. So thanks!
*My Savior Jesus Christ. I've felt his love and I know he cares about little ole me.
*The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I haven't always been grateful for it or even cared about it. But I know where I'd be without it and No. Thanks. The Church isn't always popular; it's not always 'politically correct', it's not always easy. But it's real. And it's true. I'm so thankful for the gospel in my life.
*Our temple sealing. What a wonderful peace it brings to me. If I didn't know my family could be together forever, I don't think I could have survived losing two babies. I know they're waiting for us!
*Our jobs.
*Our apartment. Yeah - we had our heart set on a place of our own, but we have a cozy roof over our heads and a/c in the summer so we're good :)
*Scott is almost done with school. Can't. Wait.
*aspen trees and waterfalls. They make me happy.
*blankets to snuggle under.
*learning experiences. Trials suck. But I'm grateful I've been able to step back and learn from them.
*Zoloft. I'm just gonna throw that out there. Oh - and Priolsec. Yeah. Totally grateful for both of those.
*Hair color. Seriously. I'm already so unfortunate looking so to add gray hairs to that is just so not fair!
*Scott's financial geekiness. Sometimes I want to smack him; but the majority of the time I'm so grateful that he's so organized and analytical about finances. It's so fun to be 6 months ahead on a car payment and know that if something comes up we don't have to pay it. Also great to have a savings account.
*Brita water filters. I'm a pansy and have to have filtered water but I don't want to add to the bottled water problem.
I know there's more but I need to sleep now. Nighty-night everyone!
