Thankful

I am so Thankful for so many things but I thought I would share a few of them with you.

First I am thankful for the gospel and the knowledge that I have. I love that I know that I am a daughter of God. I know my Father in Heaven loves me. I know that because I got married in the right place with the right person, I will be with my family forever. I know that everything I have is from my Father in Heaven.

Second I am thankful for Bradley. I love him so much! He makes me laugh so hard, he treats me like a princess. No matter how crummy my day is I know that Brad is there to make me feel better. He never says negative things about me and is always willing to help fix the situation. He is my prince charming and I love him

Third I am thankful for Ryker. I never imagined that something so small could bring me so much joy. I love how he gets in my face when he wants me to pay attention to him. He is such a good baby, he rarely cries (unless I am cooking dinner), he sleeps well and is so funny. I love watching him grow and develop. I thankful he is a healthy happy baby!

Fourth I am thankful for my parents. My parents have been so understanding and have taught me so much. They are great examples to me. I know that they would do anything for me and I am grateful for that. My dad is a wonderful man who has taught me so much about the gospel and life. My mother is an amazingly strong woman that I look up to and hope that I can be like her some day.

Fifth my family, I love that I come from a big family! I love that most of my family lives close by. I am thankful for the relationship that my sister Jessica and I have formed. She has been willing to watch Ryker while I am work and it gives me peace of mind knowing that he is being taken care of by someone who loves him.

Sixth my friends, I have had the opportunity to meet some amazing people the past few years. I have never been one to make friends with girls and I love that I can have a "girls" night every now and then. I have so many great friends however two of them have really been there for me lately. I am thankful for Lindsay and how she is always there for me. She is a great friend! I love Erika and her willingness to help me with the dumbest things. I have so many great girls in my life and I love being around them and seeing the amazing things that they do!

Seventh I am thankful for my house, job and transportation. With the economy "failing" I am thankful I have a warm house to come home to. I am so happy that in these hard times both Brad and I are able to work and provide for our family. I work at an amazing school with an amazing principle and teachers. I love the people I work with, therefor I love the place I work. I am thankful I have a way to get to point A to point B. We live a comfortable life and I am very very grateful for it.

I could go on and on but you get the general idea. I know that I am very blessed and I am thankful for that! Thank you to all the people that have made me the person I am today!

Halloween

We had a great Halloween this year! The Halloween train ride, parade at school, party at our house and some Trick-or-Treating. There is nothing better then walking around in a costume in front of a bunch of parents. Luckily I had a cute little monster to distract the parents from starring at me. Ryker came and walked around the school parade with me.

For our party we had some friends come over. We ate some yummy food then danced our hearts out. It was so funny watching the boys dance. After we danced for a little bit we had a Halloween scavenger hunt. The girls of coarse went all out, the boys however decided just to look everything up on the internet.

On Saturday we went down to my parents and went Trick-or-Treating. All in all it was a great Halloween!
