Thankful Thursday

My Health.

I started getting sick a couple days ago, and boy am I glad to have been able to sleep it off!

My Car.

I just got a brand new [to me] car! 

Look how pretty she is! 

[love my papa's shadow on the car?]

My cozy bed and the bear that sleeps next to me.

[shhhh...don't tell anyone I still sleep with a teddy bear..]

Lightning.

It's storming right now.

I grew up with lightning and thunder....and now I live in a stinkin' desert.

I'm totally lovin' this. 

Target.

I struggle walking out of this store with only items on my list.

Check out this find:

I am so thankful to be alive! 

This song was played in church today and really touched me.

Listen carefully to it, and try to ignore the cheesy video. 

In fact, I'd suggest pressing play and not watching the video at all.

"And behold, and lo, I am with you to bless you and deliver you forever. Amen."

Doctrine & Covenants 108:8

"Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen."

-Matthew 28:20

Thankful Thursday

Vacations.

My phone.

Let's be real...what would I do without it?!

My education.

I have one more semester at Brigham Young University. 

I have grown so much as a person as a direct result of my education at this amazing university. 

Knowledge is power.

My dad's job.

He works for the airlines. 

THANK YOU. 

I admit it, I am spoiled because of this. I have been many places I would not have been able to without some of the benefits of his job.

My puppy.

I am thankful to be alive! :)

I am...

Thankful Thursday

I see all around the blogging world these fun weekly posts,

such as Wishful Wednesday or Awesome/Awkward Thursday,

and I wanted to do my own.

But do one that fit more my personality,

and what I am trying to accomplish with this blog.

I want this to be an uplifting blog. 

Maybe only to myself, but uplifting nonetheless.

I don't want to have a list of all these thing I wish I had, 

when I already have so many blessings in front of me.

Don't get me wrong, its still fun to look at other's wish-lists and the like,

but this is what I want to do. 

Maybe eventually I'll even be as cool as the other bloggers,

 and have a button and link so others can join me in Thankful Thursday.

I'm not yet that cool, though. So just enjoy this. 

Thankful Thursday

Since this is my first one, I want to get the basics done.

My family. 

My roommates (past and present).

My two jobs.

In this economy I am so blessed to be able to have two jobs that help me pay all my bills. 

My apartment.

The Gospel in my life.

I am so grateful to be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

I am so happy to have a personal relationship with my Father in Heaven.

I love knowing simple truths, such as the fact that my family will be together forever.

My health.

I don't have any major health problems.

I am so thankful to be alive!

:)

Life is Wonderful

Sorry I have been absent from the blogging world for so long.

I have been focusing my time with other pursuits,

namely trying to figure out what matters most in my life. 

I have really been enjoying the free time that I have.

I won't bore you with catching up on everything that has been going on,

(although it has been a fantastic summer so far).

But I will leave you with this video.

What matters most in your life?

For me? My family. And my friends.
