Thankful...

"A grateful heart... comes through expressing gratitude to our Heavenly Father for His blessings, and to those around us for all that they bring into our lives..."

-President Thomas S. Monson



I LOOOOVE this time of year... I love the feeling in the air with the holidays just around the corner. I especially love how it helps me to slow down from the craziness of life and really think about all that I have to be thankful for. Last year one of my new year's resolutions was to keep a gratitude journal and write down just one thing every single day that I was grateful for. I think I made it to like January 30th. Shoot. But I loved the 30 days I actually did do it, cuz I really spent tons more time focusing on all the good in my life instead of wasting energy on the things that can get me down. Anyway, first and foremost this year, I am thankful for KELLY O BEHUNIN. Love my man. Seriously, how lucky am I to spend every day with him? I'm thankful for my MAMA. Honestly, she's the best person I've ever known. I wouldn't smile near as much if it weren't for her. I'm thankful for my whole FAMILY. Both my families. I love the Lauros and I love the Behunins. Both bring such happiness and fun times to my life. Thankful for HOLLY JO. She makes me laugh every single day. Thankful for FRIENDS. Both old and new. Could not do life without you. I'm thankful for the GOSPEL. The peace and joy I recieve from it everyday keeps me going. I'm thankful for my JOB. I'm so blessed to be able to do what I love every single day. I'm thankful for our HOUSE. We're so fortunate to live in such a wonderful place. Anyway.. I really have such a great life. I'm such a blessed girl in SO many ways. I hope I can be better at counting my MANY blessings on a daily basis! Happy Thanksgiving! We're off to Idaho to be with the rest of the Behunin Bunch for the weekend! WOOT WOOT!
