I am out in the apartment since Leify is taking a nap, and have no way of putting pictures on right now. So I am going to start with Thankful Thursday. I'll do an update later with pictures!
1. Hot Showers-basically they're the best end possible to a long day. Nothing quite beats letting hot water pour down you... getting rid of all the frustration from a day in the life of "Mom".
2. Makeup-From the time I was about 15 I have been completely fascinated with makeup. I used to go to the clinque counter about once every 2 weeks while in High School and have them do my makeup. They taught me lots of cool tricks and helpful tips.
3. The Internet-How else would I be able to keep in the know about my two absolutely darling new nieces?!?
4. Sister-In-Laws-I have the coolest, funnest, prettiest, and downright awesomeest (I don't know if any of those are actually words) sister-in-laws EVER. They have been great to me! Yvonne is someone who I truly enjoy talking to and has helped me through many a tough situation. She is so easy going and tells me like it is. I love her! Nicole, well I could reasonably understand if she hated my guts, I wasn't the nicest or most welcoming sister-in-law in the beginning. But she has become a great friend! She is honest, which is a trait I love. I know I can trust her with anything. Being pregnant together was really cool, I had someone to talk to about every little thing that happened and she knew exactly what I meant. Husbands have no idea. I am so thankful for both of these awesome Mama's and the examples that they have been and continue to be in my life.
5.The Sun-Ugh, need I say more? The past few days have been so nice! Leify and I have been talking walks, soaking up those rays, and enjoying every minute of it!
6. Eternal Marriage-My lesson last week was about the Blessings of the House of Israel. It really opened my eyes. I am so thankful to be a member of the LDS church and for the opportunity I have to spend FOREVER with Leif and our children. Nothing can touch that, nothing here in mortality could tempt me or persuade me to forsake it. I am so grateful for a Heavenly Father who loves me and blesses me constantly.
7. Chocolate Cake-Yum.
I love your thankful Thursdays! It makes me think of things I'm grateful for. Thank you for everything you said about me and Yvonne. You are so sweet!
ReplyDeleteI don't know how much longer we are going to be here, but you are ALWAYS welcome to come visit and I can take you to Yellowstone. Maybe when the hubby's go to Moab you can bring your mom and we can have a girly weekend. Just a thought. ;)
I'm so gonna kick your hiney on the jet ski's... although, I've never been on one... so maybe not, haha!
Can't wait to see your pictures!
I think it is great you get along with your sisters-in-law. I wish I had more family close. Thankful Thursday is a great idea.
ReplyDeleteGreat list of "thankfuls!" I love them all! :) Its always so great to think of things we're thankful for; it really shows Heavenly Father's hand in our lives. And for the record, you're an AWESOME sis-in-law, too. Don't know how I'd survive without ya!!! :)
