I have the most awesome friends in the world and today I am really grateful for them. They're always there to take my kids or clean my house or bring me cornstarch when I don't have enough to finish my shortbread cookies (Thanks Jacie!). I could go on about how wonderful they are and how much I love them but I think it's too late to do it justice. Just know, I've got the best friends in the world.

Day 3
Today I helped my little brother (who is twice as big as me) plan out his first semester at BYU. And so today I am thankful for my college education. I loved going to school (except when papers were due). I made great friends, took tons of interesting classes on all sorts of topics (Physics 122, anyone?), and of course I met my husband! I'm always thinking about when to go back to school and what I should study next. But for now I guess I'll just have to live vicariously through Trey. At least this way I don't have to wake up at 2 am to register!

Days 1 and 2
Thanksgiving is coming and I am so excited! Just 22 more days until my first guests arrive! We are going to be so busy in those 22 days but I want to make sure that I don't get caught up in all of the stress. To help with that, I've decided to post about something I'm thankful for everyday this month. Hopefully I won't miss too often. And since I already missed yesterday I'll post two things today.
Second, I am thankful for mail! Specifically the lovely greeting cards that we get from family for my darling children. It is a family tradition started by my mother that they always get holiday cards and we save them for when they are older. They love getting mail and will carry their cards around for days, asking me to read them over and over. Here's the fun card Aunt Abby sent us. She always sends the best cards. This one lights up and plays music.
