I LOVE......

I'm in a very serious and humble mood right now and have been thinking about blogging all day! Although this isn't what I was planning on blogging about, this seemed uplifting and will hopefully lift my spirits for the moment! I was looking at my friend Megan and Matt's blog and saw that she named off lots of things that she loves! By the end I felt happy and realize how much I love too and have so much to be grateful for! So here I go! Hopefully you will feel uplifted and happier too after reading!

~I love when Rylee (my dog) wants to be scratched and right away will turn around and want me to scratch her backside :)

~I love that I have such a big family!

~I love when Hayden wakes up from a nap he grunts, growls, talks and laughs for like 15 or 20 min before he gets fed up and screams "MOM" bahahaha

~I love how Haydens face lights up the moment Brett walks into the room

~I love that Brett loves me unconditionally!

~I love the Gospel of Jesus Christ

~I love that my Mom is my very best friend

~I love that I moved from Oregon 11 years ago and still feel so close to my friends there

~I love specialty drinks (virgin please)

~I love that Brett still loves me the way he always has! It has only gotten better since we got married

~I LOVE that I get to stay home with Hayden! I feel so blessed for that

~I love that I have the chance to struggle, live far away from family, rely on my husband, put all of my trust in the Lord, and grow everyday to become a better wife, mom and friend!

I know that was a lot of things to post but I am so blessed!

That's cool to be so positive Carlee! Way to go. Thanks for your Chiropractor referral, too! Hope things are going well for you guys by the way! I miss having you do my hair sooooooooooooooooooooooooo bad. I am sighing so much right now, but you are making so many memories there in Penn. Tell Rachael Grant hi for me!

You're such a great person, Carlee!! Thanks for such an uplifting post! I needed it, to remind me to be grateful for some of the same things.

Carlee, it is fun to see your cute family! I'm so glad you found us through Nicole's blog. What a small world...and it all comes from Portland! :)

Carlee, I loved your list! Sometimes it really helps to put things into perspective, and realize how much we have to be thankful for, doesn't it? Tell Brett we say hello, and we will keep him in our prayers. I hope he gets feeling better soon!

When are you guys coming out?
