So Much To Be Thankful For


Happy Thanksgiving! I love Thanksgiving Day. What a great day to be able to concentrate on those things that we are thankful for. I love this quote from President Thomas S. Monson, "We can lift ourselves, and others as well, when we refuse to remain in the realm of negative thought and cultivate within our hearts an attitude of gratitude. If ingratitude be numbered among the serious sins, then gratitude takes its place among the noblest of virtues." (An Attitude of Gratitude, Ensign, February 2000)

Here are a few things that I am Thankful for:
- My Family, they are some of my best friends and I am so thankful for them
- Jesus Christ and his Atoning sacrifice
- The Gospel
- The opportunites that I have to learn and grow
- Fabulous Friends, I have such great friends who are always there when I need them
- Things that make me laugh
- Good Books
- Music, I love music!
- A wonderful home and apartment
- Delicious food, the food that the Anderson family will prepare today is going to be so delicious! I am so excited.

Those are just a few of the numerous things that I am thankful for. I am so thankful for the numerous blessings that the Lord pours down on me!
