Sooooo Full!!!!


Well today was the first real feast of the weekend. We all had a bit of a sleep in and proceeded to work on homework, in my case, try to work on homework. I gave up after a few hours and we went and picked some raspberries with Granny Hill. Then Cars, Daddy, Kait and I went hunting ducks. We had a blast and of course I shot down like 20 of them all in the same flock :) We had Tollestrups over (just Wally and Diane) to help us eat the chimichangas. They were, of course, divine as usual!! They just never get old! I even squeezed 2 in for the night. Not quite as good as Carson's 4, but I felt pretty good and bloated from downing them :) Carson had Angie Aneca over and Kait had Jenni Peterson over and we ended up playing some cards to end the night. It was a fun day!!

Today I'm thankful for sweats and big shirts!! I just feel so incredibly comfortable in bed right now.. even after gaining 10 pounds today! What a fabulous feeling to have gained 10 pounds and still feel so comfortable in clothes :)

Dear Best Friend,
I have had many friends throughout my life who have come and gone. There have been many ups and downs, but I have been lucky to have a couple who have stayed around and proven to be true friends... friends I could ride the river with! It's amazing the comfort one can feel in knowing that you have a friend who you can always count on. I believe this is very hard to come by. A true best friend is not one that just falls into your lap and stays there. A true best friend is one whose relationship takes work, commitment, trust, honesty and love in a consistent way. If one person is giving it all and the other isn't, it is bound to fall apart or weaken. I'm so thankful for the close friends I have and the support and love I receive from them. They may come few, but their worth is priceless. It's real! It's consistent! It's pure! It's unselfish! It's L-O-V-E!

The thing I'm enjoying most about this daily blog thing is that you're making me think too!!!!! I love the way you're distilling the days activities into a short paragraph or two and describing the meaning of your day and how its affected you. And, as I said yesterday, I'm REALLY loving HOW you're doing it too!! Thanks kiddo!!
