giving thanks

I know, I know i havent posted in a very long time but I have been quite busy latley. so we had a great thanksgiving we went over to chris' aunt mary's house as we do every year. this year mom and PaPa Joe went as well and it was nice to have some of my family there this time. I am so greatfull for all the things I have been Given. I think that at times I really forget to stop and take time out to think about everything that I have. I think that if we all took about 5 min a day and just remembered the things that we have, we would all be so much more happy. that is my favorite part of this season, everyone remembers how much we have to truly be greatful for. I am thankful for my family and my friends. I am greatefull for my husband. I know that he truly loves me! ( well he better after all we are stuck now forever lol) I am So Greatfull for CJ he has brought out the best in both me and chris and gave us the drive to strive harder for the temple. CJ has made chris and I who we are today. I am greatful to have a sister who has always been so close to me. I honestly can't remember the last time we fought. ..... i am not sure if we have ever fought....hmm anyway i am so greateful to her for the example she has set for me. I am thankfull for my brothers. they are always there for me when i need them, even if it is a blessing really late at night. I love my sister in laws , i swear i have the best ones out there. I am greatfull for my parents for teaching my the gospel and for always guiding me the right way, even if i veered off that path a bit. I am greatfull that i have a home to live in, food on the table, lights and water . and for this country. I am also greatfull for the men and women who defend this country as well as their husbands, wifes and children for letting them defend us. they give us the freedom that many take for granted. In general I have alot to be greatful for.


i will blog more later with pics and such
