Thankful

I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! Mine was wonderful. We went out to Duchesne and spent it with my family this year. My family is so wild and crazy, it's always a good time. I made such beautiful looking treats that I almost didn't want to eat them. This year I made a pecan pie (which is basically just for Ben because no one in my family really likes it), pumpkin pies, and a pumpkin roll. YUMMY! There are so many things I am thankful for, but this year I am most thankful for my family. I have the best family in the world. Ben is such a great husband. He is truly my best friend. He is always inspiring me to do better and keeping me happy and optimistic about life.

Andrew is such a fun kid. Today we played hide and seek from "rawrs" (monsters) that were apparently in the ceiling fan because that's where he was shooting his gun. Olivia is such a good baby. She almost sleeps through the night now and is always smiling and laughing at me. I love being around the rest of my family too. They are always so supportive. They show up for everything... baby blessings, baptisms, football games, drill team competitions, etc. etc. etc.
I feel SO SO thankful to have such great relationships in my family. I have a million different people I can call if I am ever in an emergency. They are always so willing to help me out in any way possible. I don't know why I am so blessed, I certainly don't deserve it, but I thank God everyday for the wonderful people I get to share my life with!

It's because we all just learn to get along after so many years of arguing. LOL! Just kidding! I thank the Lord everyday for you, Ben and the kids. Thanks for being a good example to me! Love ya!
