Day 2: My Grandpa Holt

I know I briefly talked about my Grandpa Holt already, but he recently was in and out of the hospital with pneumonia. I am so blessed that my aunt took him in early enough so the doctors could help him get better and with just 2 days, was able to come home! You never know what can happen at his age! I love Grandpa SO SO much!! He has been such an amazing example for me and has taught me a lot! I look up to him for the wonderful person he is to everyone, and I mean EVERYONE!! He is the most Christlike person I know. I am one lucky girl to be blessed with such an amazing Grandpa :)

Day 3: Friends

Throughout my life, I have met some awesome people, many I consider friends. I am so blessed to have those people in my life that have been there for me. I am very grateful for all of my friends I had in high school and happy to still have those close relationships with. I am blessed for the friends I am dancing with right now. We have such a fun group and I am so blessed to be a part of it :) So, thank you to all that have touched my life, have been a good influence, and who care about me and my family!! Love you :)

Day 4: Douglas' Job

Through out our marriage, Douglas has worked at various jobs that have been good and bad. The last 4 years, he has been working for CLS landscape company with his friend Mike. With some of the rocky things that we have dealt with in the past with employers, I am just so grateful now that Douglas has a good, solid job and an awesome boss like Mike is. I am also so grateful for the hard worker Douglas is. He has always been a self motivator and is continually looking to better his skills. He says he is dedicated to his job and I pray that things will continue to be successful for them in the business as well as providing for our family!

Day 5: Trinity

As much of a rascal our pup is and for things she just loves to chew on, I really am thankful for Miss Trinity. She has brought a lot of joy into this family, especially the kids. They adore her and love playing with her! She's a good dog and is such a cutie!

Day 6: My primary class

I am a teacher in primary for the 7 and 8 year olds. It has been such a blessing to teach these cute kids. I have learned so much from them and enjoy seeing them at a special age of being baptized and receiving the Holy Ghost. It'll be sad for them to go into the other class shortly, but I am excited to get new kids that will be ready and excited to turn 8. It is so fun to teach them and I really love being in primary :)

Day 7: My Home

We have lived in our house for 2 years now. I am so grateful that we were able to get into a place that we love and enjoy. It's nice to have a place of our own that we have worked our "you know whats" to get it!! Douglas and I have gone through a few struggles before, so to be able to have a home was such a blessing for us! We love working on projects that will better our resale in the future or just for fun that make our house our home! Like a saying I have hung up, " A house is built with walls and beams, a home is built with love and dreams" :)

Day 8: Work

For just over 3 1/2 years, I have been working for Jetblue. It has been a great job for me in being able to work from home and have flexible hours. There are days lately where I get frustrated and a little bored with the job, but really, I am very thankful to even have a job, especially one that has been good with my schedule and helping provide insurance and extra income for the family. I love talking to people all over the world and helping them with their needs. I am also grateful that it has given me and my family an opportunity to travel like to Florida and the Dominican Republic.

Also, I am grateful to be a consultant for Paparazzi. It has been so much fun to get out of the house, meet new people, and play with jewelry! It has also been so good for my sister Trisha and mine's relationship! I enjoy being business partners with her and hope that our work will stay busy and successful!!

Besides on what my actual jobs are, recently I have been able to help my Grandma Holt around her house since she is having such a hard time doing things than she used to. I am so glad to be that help she needs to get stuff done. I love my Grandparents so much and what to do all that I can to help them :)
