Oh man!!!!

So I was on a roll, doing so fabulous, and then life happened. But I am here to catch up!

Day #15- I am grateful for good friends and the opportunities to spend time with them. I helped Allyson prepare for Brandon to propose to my very dear friend Jaynie!! Hooray for them!!!!

Day #16- I am grateful for the temple and the wonderful sealing power! I was able to witness my cousin, Kami, be sealed to her sweetheart, Aaron. Takes me back to when I was sealed!!

Day #17- I am grateful for Christmas decorations...yes, I am one of those people! My Christmas tree is beautiful and makes me so excited for the holiday season. I am also very grateful for my parents for letting me crash their date to Milagros (it was delicious).

Day #18- I am grateful for Sunday naps-even if they are super small!!!

Day #19- I am grateful for Emma and Isaiah- my friends I babysit while their mom goes out for a much-needed run. They always bring smiles to my face!!

Day #20- I am grateful for Chicken enchiladas! Need I say more?

Day #21- I am grateful for my mom and her willingness to give up one of her massages, so that I could experience my first massage (and definitely not my last).

Day 14...Service

Today I am very grateful for the opportunities in my life to serve. For mutual, the YM and YW were asked/challenged to rake leaves at some of the elderly members of our ward. To be honest, I was not excited because there was still snow on the ground and it was going to be dark and cold. But the youth had an excitement so off we went! We actually went to a home that wasn't planned and to see the facial expressions of the man was priceless...he was so grateful for us! IT was a great night of service and the youth are the ones who changed my attitude.

Day 13!

I am so grateful for the temple! I am grateful for the blessing that are received and for the peace I feel when I am there.

Days 11 & 12

Days 11 & 12 go together...I am grateful for the Young Women organization of the Church. I am grateful to be a leader and I am grateful for my leaders when I was younger. We had our first large activity on Sunday night- Evening of Excellence and it was a lot of work! It helped me to realize all that the leaders do for these youth. So today I took some time to go thank one of my greatest Young Women leaders, Rosemary Cornish! I am grateful for her love and diligence in serving me! I hope to be a leader like her!!

I am thankful for good neighbors, who take care of us, spoil us and keep Dan busy building snow walls for a grand snowball fight.

I am doing awesome- day 9

I am so grateful for year-round schools! My kids just tracked off and now I have 3 weeks to catch up on everything that needs to be done. I have time to play and have fun! I love being off track! But I sure will miss the cute kids!

Day 8

I am so grateful for strawberry lemonade!!! And a good husband who surprises me with delicious lemonade, cashews and a subway sandwich to keep me going during parent-teacher conferences. I am grateful for a nice comfy house to come relax in!!
