Many Thanks

Looks like my time at home with the family kept me away from the computer. No worries though, this weekend left me with plenty of things to feel thankful for.

(#55) Reunions- I got to meet up with a few of my old roommates on Thursday night. It's so nice to catch up with people and find out what's going on in their lives. We ended up making the Coney's employees stick around way past their closing time, but it was worth it. Good times were had by all.

I am so thankful to have a (#56) brother who is a good driver. On Friday night we drove up to Logan and ran into a snow storm going through Sardine Canyon. I have never seen the canyon so bad. The roads were completely snow packed and the snow was really coming down. For some reason snow-driving really freaks me out. I probably would have killed us had I been behind the wheel. Lucky for me my brother is an excellent driver. I would definitely put him as my #2 driver,  #1 of course being my Dad.

Saturday was the day of the big game. BYU vs. SDSU. I was so thankful to be at home watching the excitement on my parents (#57) big tv. It made the victory even sweeter. I never really thought much of big electronics, seemed like a waste of money to me. But I won't lie, it is so fun to watch sports on larger tvs. If those tvs have HD it's even better. I am grateful I can still be spoiled by my parents purchases.

 Going home to the family is always enjoyable because I have a (#58) mommy who still takes care of me. As much as I enjoy being independent, sometimes it's nice to have mom watch out for you. I woke up to waffles and bacon on Saturday morning, excellent dinner on Sunday, and the best room in the house. My mom is the best.

My last thankful for today is that (#59) February is over. I know it's the shortest month, but all throughout the month I feel like we are still stuck in winter. The weather hints and teases of spring, but in the end  February always brings back the snow. (Hence the mess we had to drive through) I feel like now as we head into March I can realistically hope for Spring, for warmer weather and sunny days. Lets hope they get here soon.
