Thankful Thursday

1. The Temple
Julie and Seth's wedding day was wonderful! Being in the temple with all of our family was the best part. After all, that is what it's all about! (Well, that and the hokey pokey.) My dad officiated their ceremony and it was sweet, tender, funny, and spiritual. When Trevor and I got married my Grandpa officiated and I don't remember a word that he said. Sad about that. So I'm glad we can go to other wedding ceremonies. It makes me remember my own. Even if I can't remember what was said, I remember how I felt.


2. Gum
I love gum and always have at least three packages in my purse. Fruity gum is gross. I'm a minty gum gal. Cinnamon, Spearmint, or Peppermint. (Stride is my favorite.) And gum is also a great bargaining tool with kids. Yes, I am not above bribery.

3. Gilmore Girls
I absolutely LOVE this show. It is the only show that I own on DVD. I watch the whole series at least once or twice a year. Lately (now that all of the kids are in school) as soon as I get Cole and Cagney down for a nap, I watch an episode or two of Gilmore Girls. It is pure bliss.

4. Trevor
I know he has made many appearances on my Thankful Thursday. I just can't help it. He is the greatest, so patient with me, such a great dad, makes me laugh, a wonderful partner...I could go on and on.

5. New babies!
My niece Stacy and her hubby Matt announced on Friday night that they are expecting their first baby in April. We are absolutely thrilled for them! We can't wait to meet this new little one.
