THANKFUL.



for my FAITH and FAMILY

and for:..................................
strangers who smile
kissing in the rain
baseball games with my dad
granola and yogurt
temples
new pair of earrings
my body waking up without an alarm
mail
bubble bath-candles-good book
traveling and having new adventures
when my mom laughs so hard she cries
anthropologie
writing on foggy windows
gummies
running in the middle of nowhere
family home videos
otter pops
holding a little baby
reading old journal entries
turquoise - olive green - salmon
christmas lights
hearing that new favorite song
priesthood power
falling leaves
photobooths
expressing emotion through dance
funny youtube videos
back rubs
people watching
star filled sky while sitting around a campfire
lasting friendship
chinese lanterns
swinging
handpicked bouquets
prayer
....but especially for my FAITH and FAMILY.

Ali, Thank you for sharing all that you are grateful for! It is so nice to look at our lives and to see the big and small things we are grateful for. I agree with you that I am especially grateful for my faith and family. I have also been blessed to have you come into my life as my roommate and friend! You are like sunshine through the clouds Miss Ali! I love you and am so very thankful for you in my life!

I am grateful for YOU! What a wonderful post...it's great to ponder on the fact that sometimes it's the small and simple things in life that we're really the most grateful for. I'm so glad I got to spend Thanksgiving with you. Love you!

Al Pal,

You forgot to say Jerusalem, The Office, and Astro Bars. :-) Those are like the 3 things I hear you say you love, like ALL THE TIME. lol

Oh, and get excited, we're gonna be on a boat in 87 hours!

I love that gummies are on your list. :) And I'm assuming by gummies you are perhaps referring to Jerusalem gummies. Hooray. :)
