5 things

A friend had this on her blog and I thought it was a great idea. I know I am going to do it and I hope you all do it too. That way we are really counting our blessings. We won't get through all of them but it is nice to see what we have.
We all have many blessings in our lives and therefore have a lot to be thankful for! Even during those trials or bad days in our lives, which we all have, I know there's something we should be thankful for.I challenge you to make a list everyday for the month of November of 5 things you're thankful for (since the month is already into we'd better get crackin'!). You can do it your blog or in a journal, so long as you write it down. None of these 5 things can be repeated for the whole month...which knocks out family, friends, and the gospel pretty quickly.I'm hoping we'll gain a greater appreciation for those blessings we tend to overlook.

Prop. 8 voting

Sorry we haven't blogged in a week. I got sick and we have been busy with school, for him, and work. I wanted to say the numbers for the Prop. 8 in california. I am happy they passed. Now if people stopped protesting it, it will be fine.

Because of you, Proposition 8 has been enacted! The final numbers this afternoon from the Secretary of State’s office show that Prop 8 was adopted by a margin of 52.5% Yes to 47.5% No. We racked up a 504,479 vote victory!
