Day two of being THANKFUL!

I am so thankful for amazing supportive parents! After starting my parent teacher conferences where some parents don't really care how their kids are doing, I am so grateful for parents that worried about me through school, friends, church, marriage, etc.

So THANK YOU MOM AND DAD!

Thank you for raising me in the amazing gospel of Jesus Christ. I don't know what I would do with out the gospel guiding my life. Tonight in young women's the bishop talked about how we know who we are and what we stand for. I know that I am a daughter of God and that he loves me and I love him. I stand for truth and righteousness. I am so grateful that I was raised with this knowledge.

Thank you so much for supporting me through school. It amazes me how parents can give up so easily on children. I am so grateful that you helped pay for part of my college career. I would have never completed or almost completed a graduate degree.

Thank you for challenging me to be my best and my self. I know you may not know it but it is because of you that I have confidence in my self and what I do. You taught me that by your example. Dad you have always been so humble. Mom you have always been so incredibly smart and helped me to achieve higher goals.

Thank you for always standing by me when friendships were hard. I know I was not the easiest of teenagers. I was so emotional I don't know how you put up with me so thank you. Thank you for teaching me to seek for friends that were amazing examples. I am so grateful that you are my friends and that we can have that friendship. It's more than just being there as a mom and dad. So thank you!

Thank you so much for showing me what an amazing marriage looks like. I am so grateful I have you to look up to and lean on as a couple in love. I am so grateful I was able to find an amazing companion that will treat me the way I have always seen dad treat you mom. I am so grateful that you have a strong marriage!

I could go on for days and days!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

It is not enough but I love you and I am so grateful you are my parents!

ARRRRRRG.... Pirates!

Okay my mom and dad are kinda crazy! They had to dress up as pirates for a murder mystery. My dad was a Retired Pirate and my mom was Disgraceful Debbie!

They make a great couple!

KINDA SCARY!

I love my Parents!

Last Friday I had a major scare in my family! It made me realize how grateful I am for my parents and how much they do for me! I think that the saying is true, you never realize how much something means to you until it is almost taken away!

I just wanted to publicly THANK my parents for all they do for me! I don't know where I would be with out them! Actually I do! I would probably be in the lowest point of my life! They are my rock! They lift me up when ever I fall! I look up to them as examples!

To my MOM! I honestly want to be a mom like you some day! You are so strong and keep on pushing forward even when you are so tired you can barely keep your eyes open! I love you so much! Your spirit is strong! Mom, you probably don't realize what it means to me to see you sitting at the counter reading your scriptures or asking us to come for family prayer! That example in my life has changed every move I make. I love you dearly!

To my DAD! HAPPY FATHER'S day!! I know it is early! But I also know that you won't be here to celebrate with us! I love you so much! Thank you for being one of the most humble people I have ever met! The fact that you are so Christ like brings me closer to the Lord when I am by your side! You sure scared us Friday! I am so grateful it was something little! I don't know what I would do if you weren't in my life! I can't tell you enough how much I love and appreciate you! The way you treat Mom with love, Like a Queen, makes me want to find someone just like you to spend eternity with! Your example and strength holds our family together! Thank you!!

To My parents! Thank you for having such a loving and open home! I am so grateful that you make our house into a home! I am excited for the day I will get to bring that same love and spirit into my own home! I appreciate the work you put into the home! Thank you!

I couldn't ask for more amazing parents! I love you both! THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I can't say that enough! Thank you! Love you!
