OK so I thought I would be a lot better at writing on this thing! :) Oh well what can you do? :) Well Its the day before Thanksgiving and I thought it would be a great day to kinda just talk about what I am gratefully for this year. I honestly can't believe that its been a year! or two or three! I swear the past three years have just zoomed on pass me! But at least I can say within those past three years I have sure learned a lot! Shoot even the past five I have!
Mostly this year my eyes have been opened to the importance of family and friends. Sometimes I feel very unworthy of being blessed with the people in my life. I know the Lord has blessed me with amazing family and friends cuz he knows how much I would struggle with out them :) I am so thankful for my friends. All my old friends and my new friends. Its amazing to me to see how friends will stay with you forever. Even though many friends I don't get to talk to as much as I would like. But their influences effect my life everyday! Then I have my family, who I would say are my best friends but I don't feel that that term best describes them because they are so much more. My parents have helped me so much this past year, from business tips, to advice on marriage, to encouraging me to be better. Also Tara ( pay attention Tara this might be the only time you hear this ;) ) she has been a rock in my life. I never knew I could learn so much from my little sister. She has so many qualities I pray that I can develop.
Another huge part of my life I am SO thankful for is the Gospel! I cant even put in to words what I would like to say about it, but I do know that I would be so lost with out it! I am pretty sure that this past year the Lord has had to carry me the whole time! Also I am going to have to say it but I am so grateful for the constant influence of my mission! I know that its been three years since I left but EVERYDAY is impacted because of it! I can never be gratefully enough for the time I spent in Florida serving the Lord. But in all reality the Lord did so much more for me there than I did for him!
OK so now that I am past the mushy stuff :) Little things I am grateful for, Ice cream, my car, culligan water, post it notes, sweater vests, hair spay, my cell phone, mountains, rain, waffle makers, sharpie pens, dishwashers, Ziggy, good jokes! Nintendo, oh and so much more!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
