Gone for a Week and Still Thankful!

We've been to Sun Valley and then to our Jackson condo this last week...no computer! But I'm back and more thankful than ever for....
  • Our precious little Brigham who is evidence every day that miracles still occur and our loving Heavenly Father has blessed this world with amazing medical knowledge and expertise to bless His children according to His will.
  • Time spent with Lori, Brad and beautiful children in Jackson.
  • Time spent watching Regan play basketball yesterday and the joy of knowing she really wanted us to be there.
  • Greg's wonderful job and great people with whom to associate.
  • Common sense.
  • A most amazingly beautiful world to enjoy and each of its seasons that renews and refreshes me.
  • A knowledge that Heavenly Father is still "in charge". That brings me great solace.
  • A company car to drive with no expenditures except taxes on it.
  • A dependable truck with 4-wheel drive for the snowstorms.
  • The snowstorms and moisture they bring.
  • Being able to travel and then experience the joy of coming home!
  • My nice warm, peaceful home and an awareness of and ability to give to those less fortunate.
  • Knowing Matt and Sara and kids are coming home in a month!
  • My husband who willingly shops with me and for me!
  • My husband who willingly helped me finish my craft project.
  • The book called "Covenant Hearts" by Bruce and Marie Hafen.
  • The book called "Making Sense of the Doctrine and Covenants" by Steven Harper.
  • The opportunity to go to Park Valley for Thanksgiving with Brent, Janet, Amy, Bill, Amber, Aubrey, Shaylee, Mom and Dad Rose, and my sweet Mom.
  • The whole holiday season from Thanksgiving through Christmas. I love it!
  • 24 new hours in every day.
  • Repentance and the Atonement that makes it possible.
  • Greg, Matt, Sara, Luke, Emma, Gavin, Lori, Brad, Todd, Kate, Jack, Cindy, DJ, Regan, Morgan, Jordyn, Kaleb, Porter, Kamryn, Julie, Stanton, Chloe, Lily, Brigham, and Cannon! (Whew!!!!!)
  • Forever families! (No empty chairs!)
