A whole month of thankfuls!!!


Gah!! I'm very behind. When I would get a moment, I didn't want to blog.

So today, I'm hoping I can catch up with my spare time..... :)

Day 5: I was thankful for good times and games. We had a birthday party for a friend and it was an all-day extravaganza. Lots of fun. I really enjoyed it.

Day 6: I was thankful for my sunday school class. We have a lot of fun. I'm going to miss them when they move up next year.

Day 7: phone calls with my sister. I love following her blog, talking it up on the phone, and especially visiting. I'm excited to be with her when I go home next month!!


Day 8: The name I now respond to: "Mrs. ummmmmmmm..."
I've been subbing a lot and part of the title of substitute comes a lot of forgetting names. I now respond do just about anything. And I don't mind one bit because it means I'm doing what I do best and what I'm made to do.


Day 9: Breakfast. Best. Meal. Ever. Cereal, pop tarts, oatmeal, bagels, pancakes, waffles, french toast...the list sounds sooooo tasty!!!!!


Day 10: Good advice. Sometimes advice isn't so good. But when it is and I'm paying attention, I really learn a lot! I was talking to my sister on the phone and telling her about a house we were interested in, but didn't know if we were in love with and she told me not to do it unless I was in love. We let that house go and are hopefully going to get the one we bid on last week *crossing fingers*


Day 11: The country I am so lucky to live in.


Day 12: Nerdy fun. Game day/night with friends...I was thankful for it before it began. Not so much after. It went very badly....BUT. I like nerdy games. and I'm thankful I can play games with my hubby




Day 13: The gospel of Jesus Christ. I love his loving, caring message. such a blessing in my life! To learn more about my beliefs, go to mormon.org



Day 14: Thankful for our ways of doing laundry. I love washers and dryers. I wish I had my own.....



Day 15: Cute ideas on pinterest. :)
I saw my cute scarf I have and thought of this idea I saw on Pinterest and copied it. You fold the scarf in half, put it around your neck, put one end through the loop, turn around the loop, and put the other one in. It makes more sense when you have the scarf around your neck and you're doing it.
So anyway, I felt really pretty that day. Creative, and cute. I even had glasses on and felt pretty!! :)
Day 16: Cell phones. I started tutoring that day and had directions to the wrong school. FREAKING out, I called my sweet hubby and he calmed me down and got me to the right place. It turned into a blessing in disguise and helped me bond with the kid I tutor, but it was horrible at the time. So I was very thankful for my cell phone being there so I could call my wonderful hubby.

Day 17: Hairdryers. They warm you up and help you style your hair. What more can you ask for?

Day 18: The wonderful lady in my ward who helped me get an interview for a kindergarten teaching job. I didn't get the job, but I got an interview and that's a step.

Day 19: A wonderful, relaxing day with my hubby. We played games, finished a puzzle, and just hung out. I loved it.

Day 20: That day, we sang "For the Beauty of the Earth" in church. I am thankful for this beautiful creation I am so lucky to live on.

Day 21: This was my 2 year anniversary. I am so thankful for my sweet husband. He is such a blessing in my life. I am so excited to spend forever with him!!

Day 22: Hilarious children who beg you to eat lunch with them, tell you you're one of their favorite teachers, and make you laugh.

Day 23: Milk.

Day 24: Wonderful in-laws. They are truly spectacular.

Day 25: Sleeping in.


Day 26: Everett!!! Happy birthday, handsome!!


Day 27: The temple. Nowhere else can I have so much peace and joy.
Day 28: Fun music to cheer me up.

Day 29: My mom. I couldn't ask for a better woman.
Day 30: I'm thankful for this special month to remind me of all that I'm thankful for.
First, I get to have an anniversary and be reminded of how lucky I am to be married to someone so wonderful.
Then, I get to spend Thanksgiving with family which means so much to me.
At the end of the month, I get to then prepare for Christmas in which I am reminded of the Lord's great love to send us His son.
