Thanksgiving is almost here! I can't wait to make some tasty pies. Thinking about things this week, I have my thankful list.
The Priesthood. Erin needs to have her gallbladder removed so my dad and Eric gave her a blessing tonight. What a magnificent thing it is to receive a blessing from those with authority. I am so thankful my dad and brother-in-law are able to do this for our family as worthy priesthood holders.
General Conference. I have been reading the talks this week and I love to read and reread the words of living prophets. They always give such wonderful counsel and I especially loved President Uchtdorf's talk: You Matter to Him.
Great friends. I spent some time this week with one of my best friends, Jez. We have been friends since our freshman year of college, lived together for a semester in Logan, and then lived together in SL for about 3 months. Jez is the best and I love talking with her. She's the most genuine person I have ever met and I consider myself pretty dang lucky to have her as a friend.
Freedom. With the celebration of Veteran's Day on Friday, I was contemplating the sacrifice of those who serve and have served our country. I am in so much awe of their willingness to serve and protect not only us, but our freedoms as well.
