Everybody's doing it!

I always hear of people having blog pages, and some of my family and friends have them, and I love to read them, so I decided to start one for our family.

We are in my favorite time of year. I love September through December. I have so much to be grateful for, and I have definitely been in that frame of mind this last couple of weeks.

First, I am so grateful for my husband and children. I learn so much from them each day.

I realize now how much I am grateful to have kids at home. J'Rel left home for college this year, and I am feeling the empty spot. We miss her.

I am grateful to live in Utah, closer to family. It is so nice to be able to get to families places in just a couple or few hours. I love that. and I love living close to the mountains.

I am also grateful for my health. When I get sick or get hurt, I really appreciate my health when I get it back.

On this day,however, I am grateful for Christmas! I love the decorations and lights, and it makes me feel like a kid again!!
