Happy Thanksgiving

 I'm thankful for my family, a roof over my head, running water, electricity, and food to eat.  I'm thankful for my hard working husband who is furthering his education in order to support our family and make our future better. I'm thankful for our marriage that will last through the eternities. I'm thankful for friends, for my job, and for my healthy body.  I'm thankful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ, for the knowledge of eternal families and for the atonement. I am thankful for the opportunity to thank my Heavenly Father for these blessings daily through prayer. And today on Thanksgiving I'm grateful to share them with all of you!


I'm in the kitchen listening to Christmas music
(the Michael Buble-Holiday station... listen to it, it's the best)
and getting ready for our first Thanksgiving together without family... sad! And my Clayton is watching football. He's great moral support.
The song from Home Alone came on, and I pretty much lost it.... you know when he finally finds his mom??? Yeah I am standing in my kitchen crying. It just made me miss our family so much!
I'm crazy. (I put the song below...you'll ball your eyes out when you hear it too)

I can't wait until we can always be together for every holiday. Until then... here's to starting our own traditions! My smart little sister texted me today and told me to enjoy making our new memories, after all we will be telling our kids about this Thanksgiving someday!!

So I'm off to make some memories.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones!

  1. Such a great song/movie. I just bought the 2nd Home Alone. Can we have a marathon when you come home for Christmas? Love and miss you!
