A few of the things I'm greatful for:)

With thanksgiving just a few days away, I've been thinking alot about all the things I have in my life to be thankful for. I'm very blessed!

First and foremost I am greatful for my wonderful husband. Brad is my rock. He is absolutely the biggest blessing in my life, and I don't know if I can put into words how much he means to me. It's kindof funny, when we first met I was still in junior high, and our group of friends would do things together once in a while so I've had the pleasure of knowing Brad for a long time. Brad was pretty shy with girls, so we never really talked all that much- but I was always drawn to him, and I felt a weird connection to him. I think the lord was trying to prepare me for my future husband. I can honestly say I am the luckiest woman in the world. I look forward to spending forever with my very best friend. I love you baby!

My family is one of the greatest blessings I have in my life. I not only have one amazing family, but two. Both our families are incredibly close, and we have the opportunity to see both of them at least a few times a month. My parents taught me everything I know. The good qualities that I posess come from them. They taught me to love the lord, and that family is the most important thing. My brothers and sisters, and Brad's brother and sisters are my very best friends. That doesn't come along very often:)

For those of you who don't know, Brad and I are involved with a company called Nouveau Riche. How blessed we are to have the opportunity to work with these amazing people, and have the chance to change our lives, and the lives of our family. The past year and a half that we've been involved with Nouveau, have honestly been the hardest times that I've had in my life. I wouldn't trade it for the world though. I feel like I have grown so much as a person and I know I'll never be the same.

I have always been very blessed to have amazing friends. I have had the same group of friends for about ten years. These girls ( you know who you are) are more like family then friends. Man, we've been through alot of stuff together, and over the years have all gone off and done different things with our lives, but have always stayed close, and I know we always will. I love you guys!

Last but definately not least is the gospel. I am so greatful for the chance that I have to be a member of the church and continually have the opportunity to have my testimony grow. I think about where my life would be without the church- and I just can't imagine it.

I hope I haven't babbled on for too long- I just wanted to have it in writing, so on my down days, I can go back and look at how many things I have to be thankful for:) Happy thanksgiving everyone!
