Ooooey Gooooey

You guys. Seriously. Being in love with your best friend is the greatest thing ever. I have promised myself that I won't be one of those people that posts about it daily on facebook or blog about it every two seconds, but I just can't hold it in right now. I am madly in love with Brock and I love being with him. His moving to Idaho gets closer and closer so I am attached at his hip whenever I can be. And guess what? It is sooooooo fun!! We laugh, we talk, we play, we cuddle, we work, everything. I have so much fun when I am with him and just when I think I couldn't possibly love him anymore, he out-does himself and my heart just melts.

There, I'm done being an ooooooey goooooey love stuck girl now.

Piano!

The other day I got on ksl.com to post my apartment for rent. I figured while I was on the classifieds page that I would check the free listings just for kicks and giggles. All the good things are always taken so I never bother looking, but this time, that was not the case.
I pulled up the page and the last posting was literally a minute before. And it was for a free piano!!!!!!!
I couldn't believe it. I called the lady right away to make sure it was for reals. She said it was, that they just don't ever use it.  So I called brock to make sure it was ok with him. He said no. I didn't care. I talked him into it with the help of my boss. We gathered some strong friends and went and picked it up that night! So, now I have a piano to takes to idaho with me and I couldn't be any happier about it. I have played piano since the 3rd grade and it has always been a great blessing in my life and now it can continue to be just that!

Thanksgiving: Part 6

Day 6:



Education



I am grateful that I was able to go to school my whole life. I was one of those silly kids that loved going back to school all the time.
I am especially grateful that I was able to attend Brigham Young University. I didn't always love everything about being there, but I got a great education that I'll always use and be thankful for.

Thanksgiving: Part 4

Day 4

Friends:

I have the GREATEST friends in the whole wide world!!! I learn so much from them and love and appreciate all they do for me. So many of them have been my great friends for years and years and I pray that that will always stay the same. I am kind of shy when I first meet people, but these are people that I have gotten along with since day one and I couldn't be more thankful for them, even if they are no longer a part of my everyday life, they are people I will always be grateful for and will always consider a great friend.

I don't want to list names because I'm scared I would forget someone, but let's be honest, you all know who you are. There are some that were roommates, (I have had nearly twenty roommates but only a handful of them made the list.) friends I made in high school, friends I made in the 7th grade, **cough cough...Shay**, the ones I grew up with since day 28, the ones I met at work, the ones from my ward, the ones from Oakcrest.

I am so thankful for them all!!!

Thanksgiving: Part 2

Day 2:

My Heavenly Father.

I am so grateful for the relationship I have with my Heavenly Father. There is nothing more important to me than knowing that I have a Father in Heaven that knows me perfectly and loves me no matter what. He has given me so much in my life and for which I am also grateful.

I owe everything I have in my life to Him and I know that He loves me more than anybody else and that He also loves all of His children just as much.
