Blessings

Okay... I really liked Laura's "Good Things in Life" blog. I love that country song called "The Good Stuff". I am really really good at thinking about all the things I need and would love to have. I am really good at dreaming up stuff. In fact, I am still waiting for HGTV to come and knock on my door telling me that I won their DREAM HOME.

But in all seriousness (is that a word?) I have so much to 

be thankful for. I am thankful for...

Parents who are totally crazy and have worked hard to raise us 10 kids.

My even more crazier brothers and sisters (and their spouses and kids)

My totally hot, studmuffin, macho husband. (Ooooowwwww)

Sitani who is totally cute and keeps me laughing all day.

Marley who even keeps smilin even when she feels sick.

Those fun summer family vacations.

Those endless childhood memories on the farm.

The opportunity to serve missions and those experiences that we will never forget.

Being a loser all my life... (hey it kept me out of trouble and gave me good friends.)

My lil red beemer of LOVE.  (too bad it rolled down a hill and hit a tree and DIED.)  I still miss those dayz of cruisin the island with Irene and Mary Anne in our lil ride.  (Hey... you guys want to go to Waimea today so Mary Anne can lay out under a rock while Irene and I get some real sun?  AAAHHH, those were the DAYZ.)

I am thankful for an education. (That one is for you.. Brittany.)

Those moments where everything in the world stops and your life changes 

feelingonly to leave you wondering how you have lived this long without it.

I am thankful for people that pick me up on my bad dayz.

I am thankful for those days when I am able to 

sit down and just think about important things.

I am thankful for being able to go to work everyday and be with kids.  

(Even if they spell Kobe Bryant's name wrong.)

I guess I am thankful for the diaper lineup. 

(hey it could be worse like the ole dayz.)

I am thankful that even though he isn't potty trained he has 

shown interest in underwear.  (except he wants to wear them all at 

the same time and backwards so he can see "Carz".)

I am thankful for global warming because I 

don't really like cold weather anyway. hahahaha

I am thankful that we haven't all been abducted by aliens yet.

I am thankful for CHOCOLATE and people who will enjoy it with me.

I am thankful for people who put up with my CA-RAzInesS.

I am thankful for the temple and for the knowledge that 

I can live with my family and all those I love after this life.

I am thankful for a loving Father in Heaven and for an older brother 

Jesus Christ who have given me so many things to be thankful 

for and suffered so much to make my life have a real meaning and purpose.
