I'm so lucky!

I found this backgroud and i love it!! I am so lucky!! I know it's probably supposed to be for St. Patricks day or something but i don't care! I love it all the same!

I am such a lucky person! We have been SO blessed this past year it's not even funny. Things have happened but then quickly, miraculously, something else happens for our benefit. Everything that has happened has only brought my husband and I together.

I just want to dedicate this blog entry to all of the things I am grateful for!

My wonderful husband who is such a hard worker and SO smart! He is so good to me, I always wonder how I got so lucky!?!

My healthy body! I am able to exercise every night, running, lifting weights, and swimming. I feel so lucky to be able to do that because some people can't.

My AMAZING family! Both mine and Mike's. I love them both so much. My mother is so amazing and such a wonderful support to me. My father has been such a help with saving us LOTS of money with his expertise with fixing and repairing cars!! Mike's parents are both so amazing and I absolutely love being able to go out to Erda and just be with them talking or doing whatever.

My sister Deborah, she gets her own paragraph. She means so much to me! Such an amazing person and one to look up to. I can go to her for anything and i truly know that she will help me! She is such a good mother and her kids are SO lucky!

Both my brother in law, in Sao Paulo Brazil, and my sister in law, soon to be in Quito Ecuador, that are both serving missions for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

A wonderful apartment that we don't have to pay much for (allows for saving for a house!!!) that is in the boundaries of an AMAZING ward! Kaysville 4th ward is so awesome and i absolutely love them all. I LOVE going to church every week and teaching our cute 4 yr. olds. I also LOVE being the young womens coach. I LOVE the young women!!!

My best friend Sierra. LOVE her to death! She is so amazing and such a great example. She always knows what to say to make you feel better.

The experience both my husband and I got while serving full-time LDS missions, him in Japan and me in Argentina.

Our financial situation. We are doing pretty well and I am so grateful for my parents example and how they taught me to save money and to build up a food storage. I am also grateful to be able to go on trips, like the one we will be going on in 17 DAYS!!!!!! DISNEYLAND!!!! To be able to always have food on the table, working cars, and a roof over our heads. I have a very FIRM testimony of tithing! We could never afford NOT to pay our tithing! It has been such a blessing in our lives.

Last but not least I am so grateful for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I love this church with all of my heart. I love my Father in Heaven and his Son Jesus Christ. I love everything about it and I hope that those who are closest to me and those who cross my path will always know of my love so that they may, too, stay strong, or want to follow.

I love you all!!!!!
