Today we went down to Aunt Jenny's house and the whole side of my mom's family was there. Except...Krista, Jake, Jackson, Kelan, David, Joe, and Rachel! IF they were there, it would be the best! It was still fun..just definitely not the same! I just thought I would list a couple of things i'm thankful for.
- Music: I know music isn't a huge thing in other people's life, but it definitely is in mine! If i'm having a bad day or want to get something off my mind, I go listen or play music. I LOVE IT!
- Service: Service has become a huge part of my life over the past few years. Whether it be a fun kind of service, or a certain kind of dirty work. I love seeing people happy, because it makes me happy!
- School: I never thought i'd be saying this! haha. But when the African Kids were at our house, they told us how important schooling was to them. I never really realized but school is a huge part of my life and and i am so thankful to have it in my life!
- Missionaries: Man-I have 2 amazing missionaries in my life! Roach clip..Let me just say that NOTHING...NOTHING is the same without her. Thanksgiving...Vacations....nothing. Imiss her terribly but I know she is doing something better. Second--my good friend Brandon. He's taught me so much..and brought me to be sooo thankful to my next thankful thingy. haha
- Scriptures: I promised him I'd read..and i haven't missed one day in reading my scriptures for almost 3 months! My love for scriptures has grown so much and if I didn't have them..boy would I be lost!
- The gospel: You can be happy with anything if you believe in the gospel. Think of anything...if you put the gospel into that situation--it's suddenly good.
- My friends: I love my friends! I'd be such a loser without them. They always bring out the good in me, and I'm so thankful for them!
- and...my family. I love my family so much! I know I can turn to them on anything I want, and they won't judge me any differently. My family is the best family anyone could ever ask for! They care so much about others! My parents couldn't raise their kids any better!!
Those are just a couple of things i'm so grateful for, but the main ones! I love my life and everyone in it! Happy Thanksgiving!
