My friend Aubrey tagged me to tell about all the things I am thankful for. So here it goes, well at least I will tell about some of the things I am thankful for, because if I told about all the things I am thankful for we could be here a very long time.
** I am thankful to be a member and most importantly have a testimony of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Some of the things I love about the Gospel are... The knowledge it gives me of Eternal Families, which in turns helps me to keep the things that are truly important in check. I love how I am always able to have guidance from my Heavenly Father, and it is able to come to me in so many forms (scripture, talks, prayer, the Holy Ghost...) I love the knowledge of repentance. Anyway I am so thankful that my parents chose to raise me in a faith that has blessed my life and allowed me to find true joy.
** I am so grateful for my family. Some things I love about family... The chance they give me to learn and grow (patience, understanding, forgiveness, etc.), the feeling of security, and always knowing they will be there for me. The way they make me laugh. I am also grateful for our friends that feel like family, and are always there when we need them.
**Fall I Love the colors, I love the spirit it brings that lasts until after Christmas, I love the activities and energy I get in the season of Fall.
** I am Thankful I am able to feed, clothe, and give my children a warm place to sleep. During this time in our lives it is easy for me to realize what an amazing blessing this is. I am grateful for the chance I have to need to be creative with gifts, decorating, etc. Oh what joy it gives me to actually make something that looks good and buy something that was an amazing BARGAIN!
**I am Thankful for well The Simple Things. The smiles my kids give me, the witty comments my husband comes up with, the fact that my mom and sister call me at least 3 times a week (I love the calls), friends that live close by and are willing to just hang out with me and the kids so that our days are filled with joy, and not so much stress.
I could go on and on. I will stop now, I am grateful for the opportunity to think about what I am grateful for.
I have tagged... Jenny G, Karalenn, and Carissa
Once again thanks for the opportunity Aubrey.

do you want me to do things I am thankful for, or just interesting things about me?
You can do either. I don't think it matters just a fun way for people to get to know you and well share the feeling of Thanksgiving (as korney as that sounds) :)
Oh! I just found this. Didn't realize I had been tagged, but was making an ABC list already on my blog. I'm afraid yours is much sweeter than mine! Thanks for sharing your sincere feelings. It really touched me. I completely agree with all you are thankful for and wish I was able to express myself that well. Happy Thanksgiving!
btw- I laughed when I read the part about Thew's witty comments. hahaha Probably not as witty as he thinks he is eh? jk Thew!
Well probably not as witty as HE thinks but good enough to keep us laughing that is for sure. Okay, someimes he laugh because they weren't witty but hey either way it works right.
Happy Thanksgiving! We always think about our great cousins during this time of year when we miss you all so much! We love you and hope you guys are happy and doing well!
