Thanks....Giving

I feel that Thanksgiving is a time to be thankful for what we have and have been given in this great lifetime. I know we should be thankful all of the time but it is always that easy. I know that I am thankful for so much but usually think of the things in life that I don't have or want....human nature is never satisfied! Here are a few thought of mine....
Thank you for allowing me to be me.
For letting me shine when I have earned that right.
For patting me on the back when I have done good.
For putting me in check when I was overly cocky.
For appreciating that I’d do just about anything to help anyone ~
For not taking advantage of that fact!
Thank you for being you.
For coming through with help when you know I’m to stubborn to ask for it.
For building my confidence by recognizing what I do accomplish.
For keeping me humble – without hurting my confidence.
For not judging me too harshly, because I really am only human.
For forgetting those judgments – because that’s what friends do.
For realizing as my friend, you are on a pedestal
For understanding that I of course expect superhuman traits (like reading my mind) from you.
For forgiving me when I have been too hard on you.
For knowing that when I’m hard on you it’s usually because I’m disappointed in myself.
For knowing I’d never intentionally hurt you or your feelings.
For making me laugh when I wanted to cry.
For lending your shoulder when I needed to cry, without making me feel like a wimp.
For knowing I’m one of the guys, who’s still a girl and even sometimes a lady.
So this Thanksgiving – remember I am thankful for you.Your individuality. Your uniqueness. Just plain ole YOU! Your unconditional love of someone just like me, who love’s you unconditionally for being in my life.
I have been so grateful for my parents who sacrificed so much for me to have never let me go with-out anything!
my husband who puts up with me...and somehow still seems to love me through it all, for all he does as a husband and a father, all of his hard work, love and laughs.
For my awesome boys who put meaning into my everyday and make me so happy to be a mom.
For my family....they have helped to make me the person I am today (like it or not :) I am grateful to have come from a large family and to have multiple siblings who are also my friends.

Thanks to everyone who is in or has passed through my life, all of my life experiences have made my who I am and I am grateful that you are in my life. Thanks for being part of the ride and I hope we have a long and happy road ahead!!!

Love,

Britt

Missing the sunshine...Already!

I am already missing Summer!!! I love the fall and spring but I hate the winter and the snow. I am just going to post some pictures to remind me of the hot sunny days. This summer was a lot of fun and we created some tradition's that will stick with us for sure :) I am hoping Matt will get me some snow shoes for Christmas (now if that is not a hint I don't know what is!!!) so we can go snow shoeing again. We went last winter and it was one of the funnest times of our winter it will defiantly be something I do in the winter. Just for your information you can rent snow shoes for $15.00 at out n back in Orem.Garrett got to ride in a VIPER for his birthday from the Meyer family, he had a great time and went 140 mph (i was not to happy about that)

I love Summer and all the fun we have!!! I sure hope Winter goes quick!!!

Chip n Dale - WENDOVER

So me and some of my girlfriends went out to Wendover to the Chip-n-Dale dancers. Can I just say it was not as bad as I though it was going to be at all, it was such a great laugh!! We had a great time but how could we not we where all with great company. I love my friends dearly and they play a huge part of my life. Friends are so important to me and I love them so much. Thanks so much to all of my friends who are a part of my life, I truly do love and appreciate you. Here are a few of the pictures from Wendover. I still think one of the best parts was the flat tire we got....great picture moments :) Oh, no one even stopped to help - what do you think??? Four girls in a black Lexus on the side of the road 10 minutes out of wendover.....would you have stopped??? you better have said yes! We did not need anyone to stop we had it all under control - Ha,Ha,Ha!
