Funny little things...


So... I realize that some things just aren't the same in words as they are in visually
and some things aren't as good visually as they are in words (twilight?)

But I have to try and explain some thing that happened today
though they were probably better if you saw them

First, I went to Kohls
I swear everything in the store was 50% or more off!
Bad for me, good for the store... nuff said

I ran errands this afternoon which included driving my roommate to the airport
I'm sure anyone around was looking at the three of us quite curiously
as Caitlin, Cort and I embraced for a hug and jumped up and down
screaming "we'll miss you," "Keep me updated!" "I'll text you!" "Send me Pictures"
Oh, and there was something about ways to keep each other sane when our families are driving us crazy (though my family would never drive me crazy ;)
I'm sure we looked crazy
And to add to it we made sure this nice airport worker took a picture of us
Yay! I totally love those girls!!!

To add to the list of good today... or absolutely hilarious if you were there
My mom getting a massage (things our of her mouth usually are incomprehensible noises, groans and cries; or weird phrases she made up)
Seeing Cortney's "I can't believe that's what that means" face
Driving around with my best friend, singing out loud to random crazy songs that I don't know the lyrics to (only she gets the privilege of hearing me belt it out)
Doing the swiffer sweeper dance for Cortney and my Mom

And best of all... and I don't care if you think I'm a dork
Someone sent me roses!
I don't know if they realize it or not
but I'm a sucker for flowers
I've always said that any guy could win me over with flowers ;)

So the day was brilliant! I wish you could have shared it with us!
So much fun

I will say this...
I miss all my friends off in their random places
I am beyond happy that my little bundles called dogs are okay (they both almost died today from anaphylactic shock) :(

Otherwise...
I am focusing on the good in life and loving this Christmas break

Gratitude

This is the place for people to know about me :)
What's going on in my life
What makes me happy
A place for me to share things that have made me laugh
and made me cry

So what am I feeling today?
Gratitude

Kinda corny with thanksgiving around the corner
but the best time to think about it

I have been so blessed
I have a some of the best friends
One of which is my roommate and another my psuedo roomy ;)
I have wonderful people I can talk to when I am sad (Your the best, yes you)
I have an amazing family
My two pregnant sisters are adorable
I have the gospel in my life
I have the ability to forgive and be forgiven
I am able to live in a country that allows me to choose what I want to believe religiously
I live so close to church I can walk
I could attend the temple everyday if I had the time
I have a wonderful apartment
I'm on scholarship for doing something I love
I have a great dance partner who puts up with me when I repeatedly make mistakes
I have a coat to keep me warm, as well as gloves, socks and ear warmers
Hot Cocoa is one of the best things on Earth
I have these amazingly talented people around me all the time who share with me parts of who they are
I have awesome Home Teachers who seem to care about me rather than getting their numbers in
I have an adorable puppy whom I love
I have so much food in my fridge it often rots and I have to throw it away
I have a clean toilet and running water


I have so much to be greatful for,
both large and Small

But most of all...
I have a wonderful Savior who went through all the pain I have suffered and more
He bled for me from every pore
He endured more so I wouldn't have to
I am grateful for him
My Brother
My Savior
My Redeemer

I wouldn't be here without him
nor would you

Love you all
Know That I am grateful for you :)
