1001 Things to be Thankful For.

So, I am going to tell on myself a little bit.  Around this time in 2007 I was sitting in Sacrament and the talk was on being Grateful.  Specifically he said  (as best as I can remember) " There are so many books out there for 1001 things.  1001 ways to cook chicken, 1001 places to hike, 1001 ways to say I love you.... etc."

With so many things that we have been blessed with, it should be easy to write 1001 Things to be thankful for.

So, I started my list.  I originally wanted to be done by Thanksgiving, and I am only at 263.  (This is where I am telling on myself )  I am thankful for so many more things, I just struggling with putting them into words.  So, I will try to add the rest utilizing not only my Journal, but this blog.  So if you want to help me make my list of 1001 things to be thankful for, let me know.

I was searching online for a book, and found that Hallmark has printed the 1001 things to be thankful for book, and many other blogs that talk about being thankful.  What a great thought, that so many are looking to those things to be grateful for.

Here is the beginning of my list and add if you wish.

1.  My Savior.
2.  My Sweet Dear Husband Brandon.  For the love he gives me, and the kindness he has in his heart.
3.  My Mother Gaye and Father Dennis for raising me to be the person I am.
4.  My Grandmother for loving me.
5.  My Big Brother Jared for being such a protector.  (And the biggest goofball you will ever meet)
6.  My Older Sister Amber for she has one of the biggest hearts you will ever meet.
7.  My Younger Sister Lisa, for her creativity.
8.  My Youngest Sister Rebecca for Loving me no matter what.

This is just the beginning.  I felt that I needed to Honor those who have put up with me for so long. :)

I love you all!
