To be full of Thanks and try to be Giving to others

This year I have been trying to figure out what I am thankful for.  My list was long.


Mike has a job, We have a roof over our heads, food in our fridge, money in the bank, Both autos are in working order, we are healthy (old does not qualify), we love our children and grandchildren and are grateful for their love and support.


We are learning to be grateful for our challenges and quests in life.  We are grateful that we are still learning.


We are thankful for the scriptures, grateful we know how to read,  We are grateful for our new ward, Kolob 6th Ward in Kolob Stake, I think anyway.  We are grateful for Mike's Ipad and all the great apps the church has for it.  We are grateful for the internet, to be able to do indexing to help move the work along.


We are grateful that the Lord blessed us by softening the hearts of those who could show us the way to find Alexis.  Without the Lord's help, we would still not have been able to lay her earthly body to rest.  We are blessed to share the gospel with so many great and wonderful family members and friends.


We are thankful for this year, 2011, the weddings, baby blessings, family gatherings, and funerals.    We are thankful for our move, for the support of those who helped and that it was done safely, without injury.


As this year comes to an end, we want to thank our family for the love and support they have shown to us, in good times and bad.  We want to thank our friends for being there for us when we asked for help or just wanting to talk.


We can't thank others enough, or show our gratitude for the blessings sent our way for even a small portion... No words can express our gratitude.  Signing off now with a heart full of gratitude and charity for those we know and love.


HAPPY THANKSGIVING 2011
