I am a quitter!!

I am such a nerd but i did not do well at my 21 days of Gratitude. It's not that i am not thankful cause I am but my days got very busy and I got behind and also they were getting tougher, like look in the mirror and name 5 things you like about yourself, WELL.. I am still stumped on that one so if i think of any maybe I will continue. My sister "thedancefive" is also doing the challenge so to look at the other things I should be doing, you can look there. I still have my Bear Lake trip to post and Halloween is in just a few short days so I will hopefull get those pictures on here too.

Day 9

Take five minutes to write about how grateful you are for all of the wonderful things that you currently have in your life. Don't long for what you don't possess-instead, take stock of all the blessings you already enjoy.
My home, especially when so many people across the country are losing theirs.
My vehicles, we went 9 months awhile ago with just one car and we did ok but it sure is nice to own 2.
My family, My husband and 3 children are my favorite people in the world and I am happy wherever I am as long as I am with them.
My job, I am thankful that I get a paycheck each month to be able to buy that extra fun things.
My bathtub, I LOVE to take a nice hot bath and when we go out of town and there is only showers I sure miss the tub.
My close friends and family members, what would I do without YOU??!!

Day7

Day 7
Take one picture of a thing, person, place or specific moment that makes you feel grateful.
Even though my family will always be my #1 I thought that since I always post about them that I would put something different on here this time. I was at Jake's soccer game the other day and this was my view. How beautiful! The pretty leaves on the mtns changing colors and our beautiful temple in the background.
Also I love the water. I love to swim and Bear Lake is one of my favorite places. This picture was taken this morning and i love the pretty blue water and the mountains in the back.

Day 6

Enjoy the people around you.
Take a moment to appreciate their unique talents, abilities and personalities.

I spent the last two days up in Bear Lake with some great women. Some cousins of my moms that I have not seen in years and some ladies I see daily were all there and we had so much fun together. We stayed up til 2:30 both nights just catching up and laughing with each other or even at each other at times, but what a fun weekend. I am so thankful for all the wonderful girls in my life. I will post pictures of the weekend in a couple days when I have more time.

Day 4

Day Four
Write a short message of thanks for some of the "negative" things in your life

I am having a hard time really thinking of something negative. This sounds silly that this would be negative but sometimes I find myself complaining about having to run run run. Some days after work I would just like to sit and relax, but with three young ones at home always having either soccer, basketball, tumbling, dentist appointments, and whatever else. We are always on the go. I shouldnt complain about it because i am glad that they like to do these activities and i really enjoy watching them and excel in there lives. I know this time will be over before i know it! Then I will be bored and be looking forward to having grandkids to go watch.
