In the Spirit of Thanksgiving

Hi Everyone. Isn't that picture by Norman Rockwell great.
I hope you had a wonderful Halloween. I did. In fact I even dressed up as a flapper and thanks to Grandma and Amber I had the proper accessories. I would post pictures but That would require a camera cord so I am currently lacking. I was told I was cute and authentic though.

Now that Halloween is over we can move onto Thanksgiving. Have you all seen the clip from church yet? If not you should click on the link.

In the Spirit of Thanksgiving

I just wanted to let you know of a few things that I am thankful for.

1. The privileged of having the gospel of Jesus Christ in my life.
2. That I have a wonderful eternal family that brings joy into my
days.
3. That I get to live in Utah and be by allot of those family members
(Thanksgiving will be so fun).
4. That I have a job that meets my needs
5. That I get to further my education
6. That technology allows me to stay in touch with my family that
isn't close by.
7. That I temples are close by.
8. That I live in America.
9. That I have roommates and friends that take care of me and make
me laugh.
10. That Heavenly Father knows and has a plan for me that will give
me many more things to be thankful for.

Have a happy Thanksgiving. Feel free to share what your thankful for.

Amber wants updates so here you go.

I am loving my life. My roommate Eden is wonderful. She feeds me all the time. The only problem with that is that she doesn't eat when I cook even though I want her to.... Maybe what I'm making doesn't look good to her. I shall have to make things that are yummier more often and see how that goes.

I am truly a "starving student" in thought. If it wasn't for Grandma, Amber, Church Activities and Dates I would probably not eat at all. It just disgusts me when it come to food prices. However I have learned to eat whenever food is offered. I have also learned to be considerately less picky about what I eat. For example...

My apartment complex has many ants living in it. For the most part they are not as bad as when I first got there. However we do find them in our food from time to time. This morning I was eating cherios and sure enough there was a dead ant floating in them. I was half way through the bowl at this time so I almost ate them anyway. Then I thought to myself. "No, my dear, you are not desperate enough to eat bugs for protein." I then dumped the cherios down the sink. It hurt because it felt like I was dumping money down the sink.

Alas such is the life of a college student. At least if you're me.

p.s. This is not a cry for food. I intend to make it on my own as much as possible. If I get desperate enough I will go on more dates in an attempt to get more food.
