Thankful THANKSGIVING Thursday


So true about Thanksgiving. As soon as Halloween is over, it's all about Christmas with every store filled with Christmas decorations and playing Christmas tunes. But in honor of Thanksgiving today, I want to pause & reflect on what we're thankful for. Here's what our family is thankful for:

Michelle - The important things: great husband, great kids, great friends, my testimony & faith in the gospel of Jesus Christ. The little things: caller ID on telephones, DVR to record my favorite shows, the internet, being able to work from home, our accounting & tax business & clients, a warm house & bed and heated leather seats.

Alex - family, Wii, friends, bacon, beef jerky, and guitar

Ashley - friends, soft blankets, electricity, yummy smelling lotion

Abbey - french fries, Santa Claus, Webkinz, American Girl Dolls, my pink, fuzzy blanket from my friend, Alexis

Aliza- Dora, my house, my sisters, my family

Ava - warm milk (luckily my mom has enough to feed me 24/7)

Michelle, you are so darn cute! I love how honest you are in your blog. It just makes me happy inside - seriously! Life is good isn't it? And you're right, it's the big & little things together (like DVR and the gospel) that make it that way. Thanks for sharing :) I loved it!

You know, reading your list just makes me realize again how fortunate we are!

I'm so happy that you started blogging.

So...um...how'd you do with T-giving? Still bummed we didn't do that race, but Tracey and I got up and ran anyway...and again today....5 miles....blech!

Yesterday I was having too much fun out shopping bright and early to be bothered with running.
