Thankful Thursday


1. General Conference

Or as I lovingly call it...pajama church. Sunday is supposed to be a day of rest, but it can be one of the most stressful days of the week. I love conference weekend, it is actually restful! Not only is it okay to sit and watch four hours of TV during the day, it is ENCOURAGED! I always have to have a project to work on or I fall asleep. This time I worked on a halloween craft and got started on our Christmas cards. I also love when the conference issue of the Ensign comes out and I can read all of the talks. Raise your hand if you are a visual learner like me!

2. A car radio that works
Because right now we don't have that in Trevor's car. There has been a tape stuck in the tape player so we can't play the radio. I missed my "Show Tunes Saturday Night" driving home from work last week!

3. Sweaters, Jackets, and Sweatshirts
I think one of the best parts of fall is getting out warmer clothes! I love wearing sweaters.

4. Neighbors that share
My neighbor gave me a bunch of corn stalks for my porch. Normally I'm not a big fan of displaying dead plants on my porch, but I love corn stalks! They just look so cute and fallish! She also gave me some tomatoes and zucchini. YUM.

5. Fall Soccer Season
Another season of soccer has come and gone. Gabe has graduated to playing on the bigger field and seems to be understanding basic soccer concepts more. Jared is so fun to watch. He is a great player and really improved this time with his passing skills. He also really liked playing goalie this season. We also really appreciate their coaches! Jared's coach was great. And Trevor coached Gabe's team this time.

I totally agree with how you feel about sweaters. I love them! I am not at all excited for winter, but I absolutely love the Fall!

LOVE fall and pajama Sunday too. I can't wait to cook crock pot soup and Rick's whole wheat bread every week. I also love the sweaters and sweatshirts and the fireplace and a movie......oh......I am so excited for this weekends weather!
