Thanksgiving - Much to be grateful for....






Thanksgiving is the best holiday. It kicks off the time of the year to reflect on the past year and be grateful for everything that has happened. It welcomes in the Christmas season and when we really think about the true meaning of Christmas. The things I am most grateful for are: MY FAMILY, not only my great husband and kids but our parents and brothers and their families. MY FRIENDS, I have the best friends, I love to go to lunch, shop, bowl with, go to movies, have parties with and even go on vacations with. MY HOME, I love to be home. I love it when everyone is home and the kids have their friends over and its full of noise, but I also love it when everyone is gone to school and work and I quietly reflect about the beautiful home I have. I feel peace when I am home, it is my favorite place to be. I often get made fun of because I love my bed too. MY TESTIMONY, I love to go to church and the temple with Brad and my ward family, I love to learn about the gospel, I love scripture study and family prayer. I love to learn about Christ and I want to be like him and serve and help others. MY HUSBANDS JOB, I don't love the actual job but I am grateful he has a job. There was a time in our marriage when he was self-employed and jobs were tough to come by but he has a great job with a great company and even when he is working nights, weekends, and even most holidays I am grateful for his job. I have many other things that will be told at other times.
