I'M THANKFUL FOR: Without T.J. I wouldn't know what to do. He is what holds our family close together, he has something special that I have a hard time with and that is finding the good in people and never looking down on anyone. For those that know T.J. you'll know what I mean when I say there is never a dull moment when he is around. T.J. can light up a room or put a smile on some one's face within seconds of being around. He always has a joke or funny story and he is the best story teller I have ever met. He has a wonderful personality and spirit and I'm thankful for what he does for our family. I love him as friend, father and a husband. Thank you for being you! Love You!
I'M THANKFUL FOR: What a blessing it is to have a child. My little Olivia is the heart of our family and brings such a wonderful spirit to our home. She is such a happy baby, always smiling with those beautiful eyes. Everyone lights up when they see her, she has a way of making everyone happy. I think she has her dads way with people, of course it does help that she is beautiful which I think she gets some of it from me. Ha Ha. I'm thankful that I get to wake up to her and that pretty little smile.
I'M THANKFUL FOR: I have an amazing family and what joy they bring to me. I have been so very blessed with a large family with parents that love all of us. I had the great example of my parents and siblings growing up and I couldn't have asked for better people. I'm thankful for all of the spouses that have come in to our family and for them dealing with all of us. I love my family! I thank all of you for your love and kindness to me and my family. I'm also thankful for T.J.'s family. They are so kind to let us come and stay with them in St. George all the time. I'm thankful for the way they raised T.J. and the spirit they have in their home. Thank you for your love. Side note is that not everyone is in these pictures which implies that both are a little outdated. So I'll give a shout out to Nathan and Emily that aren't in my family picture and all the married in spouses and in T.J.'s family there are the married spouses and a few babies.
I'M THANKFUL FOR: Temples are amazing buildings on the outside and the inside. I don't think in my opinion that there are any buildings that compare to temples in beauty. What a sacred place that Heavenly Father has given us to be able to go and forget the world outside. I'm so thankful to live in a place with such an abundance of temples is such a short radius. I love all of the temples but I choose this picture of the Nauvoo Temple because of the significance of it in church history. I can not imagine the labor and dedication it took them to build it back then. They had such a strong testimony of the church and of the temple and the importance of it. I look up to those that stayed strong through hard times and put their faith in the lord.
I can't write everything I'm thankful for or else I would go on and on forever. Thank you for staying with me and hope that you can think of some things your thankful for this day.
