Thanksgiving was wonderful. Family, food, entertainment, and planning of black Friday shopping. I got to sleep in because it snowed and we decided it would be dangerous to do the Turkey Trot, we made lots of food, ate lots of food, went to Tangled (cute movie), and ate more food. We ended the day with delicious pie (2 pumpkin, 1 apple, 1 ice cream-all for 13 people), mapping out our black Friday plan, and wii. Great day.
I'm thankful for lots of things:
My family/friends-They are wonderful, I couldn't ask for a better family. They are some of my best friends. I also have wonderful friends, I actually have always been blessed with really great friends and I don't show them how much I appreciate them.
Church-I wouldn't have anything without my religion. I don't think my family would be as close, I wouldn't be going to BYU, I wouldn't have met my best friends including Dan, I wouldn't have the close relations to people that I do now through church- some of which have helped me find jobs. In short I really believe that I would be far more unhappy if I were not LDS
School- It bothers me sometimes but I really am blessed to be able to go to BYU. It truly is an amazing school great opportunities. I have already learned so much and I love the atmosphere. I never have to worry about being uncomfortable and it really is a blessing to have my religious beliefs be a part of my education.
Roommates- I really do love my roommates, past and present. I have never had a crazy roommate which is pretty amazing considering all the horror stories you hear. Kylee, Taalin, Annie, Macey, and Dahea-you guys are my favorite. Thanks for being awesome.
Snow- The snow really is beautiful. I have to come to love it more since I can't really avoid it. It did get me out of running a 5k this morning.
Health- Although I have been sick it hasn't been immobilizing. I have been able to pretty much do everything I have wanted to without being hindered by physical difficulties, which hasn't always been the case. I love being able to walk without assistance from crutches or without limping.
My Best Friend- So I had to add Dan here. He really is my best friend and is such a great example to me. He has spent the last 4-ish months completely serving others and God. He is an amazing missionary with a great love for the gospel and for the Ukrainian people. I am so lucky to have him as a best friend. He also was an amazing boyfriend and I love him for treating me so well.
etc.
