Annual Elf Yourself

It wouldn't be the Christmas Season at our house without the annual Elf Yourself experiment! My kids think this is hilarious. They sit in front of the computer and watch it over and over and crack up every time. I love it. And this year, we all fit in! Click on the title to see it , or paste this to your browser. Merry Christmas! http://elfyourself.jibjab.com/view/lIyvb6wrNxefz360

Thankful

I think it is high time I post a little something to express my gratitude. I feel so blessed lately to have everything I have in my life. I am so thankful for the gospel of Jesus Christ. I am thankful for the peace that I feel and the guidance it gives me for how to live and be happy. I am so thankful for my family. I seriously look at my girls and think that I am so lucky! I love their excitement at the simple things in life and their innocence and purity.I am thankful for my amazing husband and all that he does for me and our girls. I am thankful that he is my best friend and that we have so much fun together. We had a great Thanksgiving, our first one with just the five of us. We missed being with our extended family, but it was fun to just be together and start some of our own traditions. I am thankful for our health and our home. I am thankful that we have a safe car that runs and that we are warm during the winter. I have so much to be thankful for and I truly am thankful for it!
