Happy Thanksgiving

I want to take this time to write what I'm thankful for. Tis the season to express how much I appreciate each of my blessings.

1. I'm thankful that I'm in a loving and healthy marriage and that I can spend eternity with the man of my dreams.
2. I'm thankful for all of the children in the world and the renewed hope they bring, the lessons they can teach us such as to be humble, loving, innocent, peaceful, meek, forgiving and most of all Christ-like. I'm especially thankful for all of my beautiful nephews and nieces... each of them are angels of God and they all have such sweet, beautiful spirits. They are spiritual giants and have taught me a lot.
3. I'm thankful for my family and for the love, support, patience, guidance, acceptance and the joy they bring into my life. I couldn't imagine my journey on earth without each of them.
4. I'm thankful for my health. I'm grateful that I have the education to take care of my body - to eat right, to exercise and to have the Words of Wisdom to know what/what not to consume.
5. I'm thankful for friends. I love and miss my far away friends but I feel so blessed to have wonderful friends here in Vegas.
6. I'm thankful for my education and that I had the opportunity to go to college - not just to be educated but to learn about independence, hard work and responsibility.
7. I'm thankful that Chad is in dental school and that we will be able to provide for our children in the future.
8. I'm thankful that we live in a free country. I'm especially thankful that I had the opportunity to experience 2 of the greatest countries in the world - U.S. and Canada... who could be so lucky to experience both?
9. I'm thankful for the gospel in my life and to have a close relationship with my Saviour and Heavenly Father who guide, direct, and walk with me every day.

I have so much more to be thankful for but these are some of the things I'm most thankful for. I'm also very thankful for you because you are taking the time to read my blog which tells me that you must care about Chad and I.

Have a safe holiday and a very merry Christmas!!!
