Happy Belated THANKSGIVING!


Ok I must admit I'm going to be the biggest copycat ever! I know its December, but I have been super busy these past weeks and have had no time to comment. Brittney and Aubrey have inspired me to write all the things I'm thankful for on this post. So, better late than never, I'm going to write them now!
I'm grateful for a loving caring family who stick with me through thick and thin and teach me many life lessons that I would never know, and for giving me many opportunities to become a better person.
I'm grateful for all my friends who have continued being friends even when we're miles (states) apart. I'm also grateful that they are kind enough to be forgiving, because I need all the forgiveness I can get!
I'm so grateful for the little dog Honey that greets me with a wet tongue and a paw on the knee everytime I walk through the garage door.
I'm grateful for sisters who are willing to stay up late in the nights to listen to my over-extended stories and for their patience with my lack of time.
I'm glad I have a few good friends who will listen to all my drama and give me their inspiring ideas or share in my sadness.
I'm grateful for the girl who has constantly been my friend even though much has come between us.
I'm grateful for the boy who gave me three chances to fix things and continued being my friends after all the drama.
I'm grateful for my church leaders who have continuously inspired me to be better and have taught me what to do.
I'm grateful for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Without it I would surely be lost and confused.
I'm also grateful for my Heavenly Father who sent me to this earth to gain a body, to be tested and to be given the chance to return and live with Him again.
I'm grateful for all those young men and young women serving their missions and taking time out of their lives to serve the Lord and their fellow men. Even though it may be sad to see them go, they inspire me and make me want to go on my mission even more every day! Thank you!
I'm grateful for my two best friends who love me no matter how crazy I am and who still want to hang out with me whenever they are in town,
I'm grateful for friends who keep my ego in check and remind me to be humble.
I'm grateful for my Mother, who has become one of my best friends and has offered me advice that I probably wouldn't have listened to from anyone else.
I"m so grateful for all the beautiful nature here! For Rain, beautiful Sunsets, sunny skies, cloudy days, trees, flowers, streams, ponds, lakes, oceans, rain forests, jungles, desert (sorta), just everything really! We really are blessed to live in a land of wonder!
I'm even grateful for America! Although our government is pretty corrupt and the economy is failing we still have freedoms here that we can't find in many other places. America is a blessed land. We are so lucky to live in the Promised land.
I could include so many things but I'm going to wrap it up here and say that I'm thankful for trials, as strange as it may seem, because trials although unpleasant are here to help us learn and grow. I'm also thankful for all my friends! We have all gone through thick and thin and its nice to know that they are still there even when they live in different states and may never see you again. I know they're here for me and that they want whats best for me!
Thank you again! I love you all! And I'm so grateful for the plan of happiness! I could not have been truly happy without it!
