Full Stomachs and Full Hearts

"Gratitude is the memory of the heart" ~unkown

I thought it would be fun and beneficial for everyone in the family to record on the family blog 5 things that they are thankful for. Not only is this time of year a time to have full stomachs but also full hearts. When you record it, create a new post instead of leaving it in the comments. Just sign in using your gmail address at the top right and create a 'new post'. If you need help let me know. This way everyone will be able to view the things your grateful for right away. I will start.

1. I am grateful for a Father In Heaven and a Savior who are more aware of me then I ever knew they were before in the past. I love them for watching out for me, protecting me, and loving me. I'm grateful for their unconditional love.

2. I am grateful for a family that loves me, prays for me, and one that makes me happy. I love everyone so much and am grateful for our friendships that I will eternally cherish.

3. I'm grateful for the country that I've been so fortunate to be born and raised in and the people who sacrifice their time, family, and lives for each of us to live the life that we do.

4. I'm grateful for great friends in my life that I have been so fortunate to meet and have. There's nothing like a true, great friend. Ones that are there unconditionally, and ones that I share my laughs, my cries, and my joys with.

5. I'm grateful for the opportunity for me to be educated. Internationally, this is a blessing that many people do not have. We are so fortunate. Because of this, I will do my best to never take it for granted and always continue my education in life. This is a very important, wonderful blessing, and one that will stay with us eternally.

IN-N-OUT BURGER!!!

We finally have an IN-N-OUT in Utah, and let me tell you that building went up Fast! As far as I can see, they are making a killing already! Jeffrey and I went there today and we were amazed by how many people were there @ 10:30 a.m. It felt like I was somewhere else other then Utah...like California, Arizona, or Nevada. What I love about this place is the atmosphere. The sparkling clean atmosphere, nice employees, and their "healthy" food. There were 2,000 people who applied to this location, and they start at $10.00 p/hour. A perk that the employees get, both full time and part time, are BENEFITS, dental and eye. This place is great and I am excited it's here! You guys should go!
