So I don't have any great pictures or anything. I thought this one of Karleigh was cute So I posted.

A couple of friends and Family have posted about what they are THANKFUL for. I thought Wow I sure haven't been showing my thanks lately. So I wanted to just take a minute to reflect.

FAMILY: Where would I be without my loving Husband. He is always here no matter what. My children are my world. Lately I have been Crabby!! ( to put it nicely) But at the end of the day my children still love me. I don't know if my lOving Husband does but they always do.

GOSPEL: It is everything to me. It defines who I am and who I want to be. what purpose would I have in trying to be better if it wasn't for my savior and knowing I can be perfected through him and return to live with him and my father again.

FRIENDS: I am not one of those that could endure life without a really good friend by my side. My friends are so important to me. I am not the greatest friend at times I can be very selfish but I have been blessed in this life with some very great examples of the kind of friend I hope to be one day.

Christmas: This season brings such a warm feeling. It is much more a feeling for me this time of year than anything else. It seems over the years that as life has gotten tougher and things are not always smooth that the season seems to bring more to my life than ever before. I used to be the one cursing the people with lights up to soon,decorations and celebrations too soon. This year is different. My little Preston has seen others lights and trees up and has been begging to put ours up. I have always done it the day after Thanksgiving and so I have been holding off and trying to explain to him why it is so called "not time yet". THen thinking why not. Why is it not time to celebrate the birth of our savior. I know I am analyzing it again but I am the one listening to christmas music already and wishing I could decorate. Beleive me I will on Friday!
