This face.
JUST KIDDING!! I wouldn't do that. Here are some things I am grateful for:
A husband who will stay up all night talking with me even though he has to get up early and get ready for a long day of work.
Money. Sounds superficial I know but what I mean is...house, food, clothes, car, gas...I'm grateful we have enough money for our needs to be met and more!
A dad who has good work ethic, who taught me how to have a sense of humor and not be too pampered, who has taught me that supposabley-expecially-boughten have now been added to the English dictionary teaching me that we are progressive and capable of change. I am also grateful that he taught me to never sit on my tushy on a saturday and that he worked hard so I could have so many opportunties as a kid (and an adult)...violin, traveling, education, braces....
A mom who taught me to appreciate our beautiful world and all that is living in it, who laughs out loud and cries at the same time, and taught me that feeling sick is never a good enough excuse to get out of things. For giving me the memory of bribing me with a nice laffy taffy (since I was obviously pretending to be sick to get out of violin lessons) and then projectile vomiting pink all over my violin teacher's house later.
I am grateful that I had good friends who helped making good choices easy to do.
Kids who are healthy and laugh a lot.
I am grateful for in-laws. My family has more than tripled and I love every one of them.
I am grateful for my body and all that it is capable of doing.
Music.
Did I already mention Jared? I am really grateful for him. I really don't like to be mushy but I am so happy to have found him. He's kind, understanding, open minded, determined, fun, and cares so much to provide and protect our family. I certainly don't feel deserving of him but am so thankful to be with him.
I am grateful for the gospel of Jesus Christ. I am grateful to know that I have a Heavenly Father who knows us and our needs. I am grateful for the scriptures. I am grateful to have a prophet on this earth to lead and guide us.
Happy Thanksgiving!!

You are so funny. I was so surprised that someone would have the audacity to make a list of what they were ungrateful for...I should have known better. Happy Thanksgiving friend. Gobble 'til you wobble!
I'm grateful for children who turn out to be faithful, good parents, kind, grateful, and all the other good things and marry equally good spouses despite parents who don't always (or usually) know what the heck they're doing.
I am thankful for my really great cousin, Sara. She is an allright gal... :)
Sara...isn't it nice to think of all the great things we have in our lives every once in a while...that is why I love Thanksgiving...it helps us do just that.
Nice picture! That's a keeper.
