I am Thankful

I truly have so much to be thankful for.

• 
  
  The Gospel, I am grateful for the foundation I have because of it. For my testimony. For the knowledge I have of eternal families, of the plan of happiness, and so much more.
  
  
  
• 
  
  My Family. They are amazing. I have great parents who are such pillars of strength in my life. For my siblings {this of course includes the in-laws too}. I love the relationships we have and how close we are.  My family is the best. I love them so much!
  
  
  
• 
  
  My Friends. This year I understood how it felt to have true friends. And I am so thankful for them in my life. They are such strengths. I love them dearly!
  
  
  
• 
  
  For a Job. I may not {enjoy} work 100% all the time. But I do like what I do.
  
  
  
• 
  
  A Car. Fiona. Its one less thing to worry about when you car runs smoothly.
  
• My Health. This year has been a year of change for sure. I am so grateful for the oppurtunity I had to have surgery. It has become a great tool in assisting me in losing weight. And I am so thankful for that.
  

There is so much more.

So much to be thankful for each and every day.

•   And I of course am thankful for this here blog. And the many bloggy friends I have made. I am grateful for the sweet comments! They can brighten a day!!!!
  
  THANK YOU!!!

♥ Thankful Thursdays ♥

♥ For my google maps application on my phone. It helped us get to so many places. It also helped when we were craving Mexican food or wanted a hotel with a pool. ♥

♥ That my car functioned properly and had no problems. I am also so grateful that I did not get a ticket! ♥

♥ A good book. I read while I work out and I work out for at least twice as long and it seems to go by so much faster. I am loosing sleep though...it is my mom's fault (her book recommendation) ♥

♥ Most importantly my Mom. She is amazing. I am so grateful to have her in my life. She is always there. A great Mom and a best friend! ♥

♥Thankful Thursdays♥

♥ Family, its an obvious. It was so nice to be all together for Easter!♥

♥Communication. Relationships are not perfect. And I am grateful for being able to talk out problems that arise and being comfortable doing that is a big deal. ♥

♥ I am grateful today is Thursday, because that means that tomorrow is Friday. My last day before vacation which starts at 1:30pm. I am so ready to not worry about work you have no idea.I will still have school. But that is alright. I am going to try as hard as I can to get as much as I can done before I leave.♥

♥The rain that fell during the weekend. It was so nice. I can not remember the last time it rained. I absolutely love the smell of Arizona rain, nothing else compares. ♥

♥Thankful Thursday♥

♥ The Office is back tonight!!! Woot Woot!!! Yes I have an addiction, don't judge!♥

♥Phoebe, she is a great car! I have NEVER regretted purchasing her.♥

♥There is one full week left of work before vacation. I can not wait to go, can you tell?♥

♥ I am so happy there are only 3 weeks left of school. 3 weeks! I can not wait to be done!♥

♥ Thankful Thursday ♥

♥ I am grateful for the oppurtunity we have to listen to General Conference. I am really looking forward to the talks that are coming up this weekend.♥

♥ I am grateful for my mom who listens to me when I am frustrated. Who gives advice. Who understands. Who is always there. ♥

♥ I am grateful it is April. Which means vacation is coming. I need it badly! ♥

♥ I am grateful for my Dad. He is so selfless. For example, he knows I have had this thing for Reeses lately. And he knows I love them frozen. He is always sure that they are stocked in the freezer. ♥

♥ Thankful Thursdays ♥

♥ For my brother. I am grateful he did not work yesterday. He showed me how to change my flat tire. And when I was half way through my bike ride and had problems with my tire he came out and fixed the problem. I am grateful for his willingness to help. ♥

♥ I am grateful for my calling. I am in nursery. And I love it. I will admit at first I really was not excited about being in there. I had a hard time adjusting to being with little kids instead of grownups. But now I absolutely love being there. I love those kids. They are great! I have been in there now for almost 2 years I think. ♥

♥ I am so very grateful for my Mom. I don't think I can express this enough. She is my best friend. And I realize how lucky I am to have her in my life. She is amazing. I am so grateful for her and her example. ♥

♥ Thankful Thursday ♥

♥ I am grateful for my little brother. I woke up yesterday and remembered I had to get gas in my car. Which was going to make me late for work as I use every minute to get ready and out the door. I completely forgot I had to get gas. So I got in my car and there was a sticky note and my tank was almost full. I had let him borrow my car the night before. I am grateful for that act of kindness. It brightened my day. ♥

♥ I am grateful for all I have. I went to a fireside on Sunday where a senior couple had talked about their missionary experiences in Africa. It really opened my eyes to how much I have to be grateful for. ♥

♥ I am so happy I have tomorrow off. I am really looking forward to sleeping in! ♥

♥ I am grateful for Facebook. I know weird thing to be grateful for. Let me explain. There is this girl that I quickly became friends with when she moved into my ward. This was a good 6 or 7 years ago. I have been thinking of her lately but for the life of me I could not remember her name. It was driving me crazy! She found me on facebook. I am so glad that technology allows us to connect with friends, old and new. ♥

♥Thankful Thursday♥

A grateful heart is a beginning of greatness. . . . It is a foundation for the development of such virtues as prayer, faith, courage, contentment, happiness, love, and well-being. - James E. Faust

♥ I am grateful that winter weather has come to an end. I have such dry skin during the winter it drives me crazy! I go through so much VS body butter it is crazy. ♥

♥ I am grateful for those random moments when we are all sitting on the back proch talking about some of the most random things. That feeling of just being and hanging with the family are some of the best moments.♥

♥ I am grateful for the fact that my Abnormal Psychology class is being instructed by the same professor. I am pretty sure I still have all the assignments, meaning I can just spruce those up and I am good to go. ♥

Thankful Thursday

I have decided to start this little segment in order to express my gratitude for various happenings in my life.

♥ I am grateful for my brother who so kindly changed my bike tire. I asked him yesterday if he would mind helping me change it (I don't know that I have ever changed a bike tire on my own. About time I learn right.) He was more than willing to help me do this. When I came home from work he had already done it. I am so grateful for that. And yes, someday I will learn how to do it on my own.♥

♥ I am grateful there is not a lot of good TV on Wednesday night. I got to bed at 8:30. It was nice to get to bed earlier than usual. I am in need of sleep, big time.♥
♥ I am grateful I am single and I am more grateful that I understand why I am. (More to come on this later) ♥
♥ I am grateful for the scriptures. I am working on reading them everyday. My mom is an amazing example of this and I truly appreciate it. I am grateful for the instant comfort and peace I feel when I read them.♥
