Don't Eat the Yellow Snow

Unless it's really a lemon snowcone

offered to you by the Abominable Snowman.

Then enjoy it all you want! 

Just some wise words of wisdom you hopefully don't need.

Days of Past.

This past week has been great.

I got to see this:

Disney's Tangled

Amazing movie! 

I kicked "making a pumpkin pie from scratch" off my bucket list

I can now use canned pumpkin and feel just as complete . . .

Unless I want to make a more successful one. .  .

Michelle and I had fun in the kitchen that day.

Thanksgiving at the Savages! :)

Then home to Far Far Away.

I love my family. :)

A visit to Ammon and Shelley, ID.

 

 

Notice that Jessika's legs are straight?

Then back to Utah.

 It was a good break. . . 

2 more weeks and an even better one will occur! 

Remember, Remember (Take 1)

Yesterday in English our teacher asked us to free write

about three things we are thankful for.

Then we shared. 

And the let me tell you that there was an amazing feeling

that was in the room when we finished.

The prophets have told us over and over to have an 

Attitude of Gratitude.

I have a testimony that it's a true principle.

Thanksgiving was super and I'll post about my happenings but 

even after an AMAZING Thanksgiving break I needed 

a post to remember on Monday.

I remember my amazing family that I have.

My sister who listens and encourages me beyond to where I can't really doubt myself anymore.

My mom who is always willing to help, laugh,
share knowledge, or cry with.

My dad who calls to just tell me he loves me and has always been an example to me of extraordinary leadership.

My brother's smile and laugh who I get to have lunch with frequently now. Who is willing to do almost anything for me and who tells great jokes and brings up even better memories.

My brother who makes me smile and laugh and it's always a trick to getting him say "I love you" back making it all the more true.

My sister whose smile lights up the world and her Dash laugh. :)

My cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents for their smiles, laughter, tears, examples, and memories.

(believe me I didn't list it all)

My friends. 

How I ever deserved to be blessed with such amazing one's throughout my life I will never know. They laugh with me, cry with me, and just sit with me, AND let me join them in the same activities with them. They are a huge example to me and are teaching me everyday.

 Memories of camping with my family.

 

Grandpa and Grandma Savage treating me to Disneyworld.

Those who take time to notice others.

The gospel of Jesus Christ.

I KNOW it's true.

I KNOW God is my Heavenly Father.

That Christ is my brother and savior.

That the Book of Mormon is true.

Prayer works.

And that I am loved.

(and SO much more).

Oh snow.

I like this picture.

And I like snow . . .

mostly when it's not cold and I don't have to go out in it.

Some things in life are just flat out

associated with happiness:

Here is one of them.

I am so excited 

and EVERY time I watch that there trailer

I can't help but be happy 

due to the thoughts it brings of my

BeSt FrIeNdS!

On other notes I am currently fixated on these two songs.

Thanks Elise and Whitney.

Waffles Anyone?

One day I got a text from Cody about this:

Yes that is a waffle in Mrs. Statue's hand.

Bravo whoever helped make my day - bravo.

Beauty

I find that everyone around me is embracing Thanksgiving with thankful posts.

I LOVE this because you know what?
I love being grateful and seeing how much I enjoy that others do too
and reexamining what I should be thankful for.

The past month I have realized how grateful I am for my health
(when you don't have it you remember how great it was)
laughing, the ability to sing, the gospel, my friends . . .

Anyway what I really want to say I am grateful for is BEAUTY.
Not the movie star kind because that wears off.
But the beauty I see everyday.

I wish I could post pictures of it all but that would be a VERY long post,
because I am surrounded by it - it's everywhere.

I see it everyday in my friends.

My family.

And in nature.

I realize it's fall and this should be colorful but oh well.

And I hear it in music.

So it ends up I didn't much put pictures up BUT

If you are reading this go and look in the mirror and see what I am talking about -

I promise you will see it. (If not let me know and I will show you).

I have so much more my mind is going crazy wanting to say but to wrap it up:

Thanks for being the beauty in my life.
