Thanks & Giving!

I hope you're having (or had) a wonderful Thanksgiving Day and that you are (or were) surrounded by family, friends, and good food. If it wasn't all you were hoping it would be give me a call, there's a good chance I have leftovers, or will after I go to the two more Thanksgiving dinners I'll be attending this weekend. (I know, it's rough, but somebody's gotta do it!)

But in all seriousness, well..., mostly all seriousness, here's a list of things I'm thankful for (in no particular order):

- Family (they're the best)
- Friends (they're practically family)
- Faith (in all things)
- Hope (for world peace! jk! Ok, maybe not!)
- Volleyball (of course)
- Love (it's everywhere)
- Scripture (and sacrifice)
- Home (it's a nice place to be)
- Pants w/ a 37" inseam (those of you who've ever had to hem pants to make them fit wouldn't understand)
- Good health
- Chocolate (can I get an AMEN?!)
- Food
- the Gospel
- Good books
- Cameras (cuz my memory ain't what it use to be)
- Freedom (from oppression)
- Warm coats
- Prophets, Apostles, and revelation
- Traditions
- Fresh Air (breath in, breath out)
- Agency
- Dreams (both conscious and unconscious)
- Airplanes (cuz the ox cart is SO 19th century)
- DVR (it makes me happy)
- Missionaries
- Strength
- Soldiers
- Good days (hopefully they're not few and far between)
- Bravery
- Seasons (I like all 4!)
- Work (most of the time, anyways)
- People who read my blog

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend and don't let that turkey get the best of ya!
