I am...

Thankful

For MANY things tonight:

1- My Brother Ryan just got engaged......

and I couldn't be more excited:)

Sorry ladies, he is officially off the market.

----

Kelsey is adorable and one of my favorite people to be around!

We are so excited for her to be part of our family.

My child is obsessed with her to put it lightly.

He adores her and has for over a year!

I am so glad he will get to be around her forever:)

She is constantly serving those around her...I've never heard her complain even once...and she likes the dramatic, over-exaggerating and sassy ME. So I'll keep her.

This is such a wonderful time of year and I am thankful that my family is so close and that we have all married wonderful people who all get along perfectly.

I know some families aren't so lucky!

2- I just spent the entire afternoon cooking in my new kitchen and listening to Christmas music....I was in complete heaven!

I finished making some of my favorite dishes to take to the BISHOPS tomorrow.

I am THANKFUL that I can spend the holidays with my family...because I spent several of them over 1000 miles away in Nebraska. Poor me.

I am VERY family oriented and in love with traditions.
They make me such a happier person!

3-I ran through the snow with my baby this evening:)

At approx. 5:00 p.m. I took a break from cooking and me and Jaxson put on our snow boots! We drove to the Layton park and ran around in the snow for an hour:) He is now asleep on the couch and has been for 3 hours. Why have I not tried this technique before now???

He is #1 on my Thankful list.

He is downright the sweetest and most hilarious child ever.

He is my best friend and my angel.

I am

Currently putting together my BLACK FRIDAY list!

I love Black Friday!

I love to shop!

I love a good deal!

...and I love a good reason to have a sleep over with my sister, get really excited about something and see how much crap (that we didn't need and maybe didn't even want) we could buy in a few short hours! I wish there were 6 of me...because my list is bigger and the items further apart than I am capable of! What to do...what to do???

You will find me at Khol's, Target, and OfficeMax at 4:00 a.m.

Let the fun begin.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
