There is Beauty All Around

I saw God today as my children and I sang Christmas songs at the top of our lungs, rang jingle bells, and they danced around the room. It was especially cute watching the 1 year old watch the others and ring his bell when they did:)

I also saw God today as I was driving home from shopping (without any kids) in the first true snowfall of the season.

Gratitude

So I've been a real slacker in the bloggin world lately, both on this one and my personal/family one. But here is a belated Thanksgiving post.

I am so grateful for all of the blessings in my life. There are definitely too many to name. Here is just a random list:

My Savior and a Heavenly Father who love me and have a plan for me.
My Family who love me and support me and visit me and call me and pray for me.
My Husband who loves me and works hard and makes me laugh.
My Children who keep me on my toes and make me smile and give me hugs and sticky kisses.
My Friends who make me laugh and smile and help with my kids and reminicse with me.
My House to keep me safe and warm.
Plenty of food to eat. I feel blessed to never see my children go hungry.
My Calling. It's fun to work in the Relief Society and get to know the great sisters in our ward.
Cars that work to get us where we need/want to go.
Music--I'm especially enjoying the Christmas music.
Chocolate:)
Pumpkin Bread:)
Hot Chocolate with marshmallows:)

Okay, that's enough. Time to get back to the family.

"Count your blessings, Name then one by one, And it will surprise you what the Lord has done."
