I have SO many wonderful blessings to be grateful for. So many. I hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving. Ours was the best.
We had an amazing weekend and thoroughly enjoyed the extra 2 days off of work. We slept somewhere different every night and had so much fun with both of our families.
Wednesday night--slept in Centerville with my family. Spent the morning making the Thanksgiving feast and then eating it up. Then we went and saw Tangled, which was really cute.
Thursday night--headed up to Marcus's family cabin up in Kamas. It was freezing up there but we had a great time spending time with family, relaxing, and sledding.
Friday night--drove all the way to Logan. We slept at my sister's house and watched football. Strange for us girls, but we enjoyed it.
Saturday--We got up and headed to Preston to cut down our Christmas trees! More on this to come.
We got home late Saturday night and we were happy to be home. We had a super busy but amazing weekend and feel so blessed. We are so grateful for our families and how close we are to them (both close in distance and close in relationships).
And the speaker at church used this quote on Sunday and I just love it.
"How can we cultivate within our hearts an attitude of gratitude? President Joseph F. Smith, sixth President of the Church, provided an answer. Said he: “The grateful man sees so much in the world to be thankful for, and with him the good outweighs the evil. Love overpowers jealousy, and light drives darkness out of his life.” He continued: “Pride destroys our gratitude and sets up selfishness in its place. How much happier we are in the presence of a grateful and loving soul, and how careful we should be to cultivate, through the medium of a prayerful life, a thankful attitude toward God and man." President Thomas S. Monson
