gratitude


Since Thanksgiving is just around the corner, here's a list of things that I'm thankful for this year...

my loving family
my loving husband, Jesse
the gospel
colorful leaves
good music
animals
hugs
the earth
Christmas trees (and lights)
books
ice cream
working cars
heaters
saltine crackers
the color red
Nalgene water bottles
movies
ice chips
comfy pillows and throws
The Book of Mormon
having enough to meet our needs
temples (included in the gospel...)
cuddling
naps!
Airedales with
cute noses
waffles
cameras
blankets
washing machines
smiles
thankful people

Jesse and I are leaving tomorrow morning for Mississippi and I wanted to post today cause I don't think I'll have internet access later (it will be different this year not spending Thanksgiving with my immediate family and joining them in the annual cutting of the Christmas tree), but I'm also looking forward to getting to know Jesse's extended family and celebrating new traditions too.

I wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving! Are you going Black Friday shopping??

P.S. When I get back from the holiday...honeymoon pictures!

P.P.S. Is anyone else having problems with their Google Reader not showing all the posts for blogs? I don't know if it's just my computer, but I really dislike the new layout...let me know if you know how to fix it!

33

I know it's been three weeks since I last blogged...

Jesse and I have technically been married for one month this past Tuesday- the 8th- (though our actual four weeks was on Saturday the 5th) and Jesse brought me a bouquet of flowers he picked out and arranged himself! I gave him a card. He's so thoughful and I love him to bits! I'm so thankful for him.

We were in the kitchen the other day and had the following conversation:
Jesse: "Why are you so beautiful?"
Me: "Because Heavenly Father just made me that way." (Normally I'm not that pride-ful(?) about my appearance but I was trying to be semi-funny too)
Jesse: "I thank Him every night for you!"

We'll be going to Mississippi and staying in cabins for Thanksgiving this year for a family reunion (with Jesse's mothers family). It will be the first year that I won't be spending it with my family (other than my mission) and it will be different, but I'm also excited to meet Jesse's extended family. He already warned me (highlighted at the top) about a certain gravy not to eat...



I promise I haven't forgotten about honeymoon pictures! (Not sure anyone really cares about them but anyway...) We don't have internet access at our apartment so when I blog, it's from work and I don't have the pictures on the computer at work. Hopefully in the next few! days I will post them as well as some more wedding pictures.
