Blessings

• Holiday shopping! I have such a hard time staying in budget, but I love buying presents!
• Fun friends who do fun things like the Holiday Recipe Extravaganza! I am trying so hard not to post a new recipe every day but I really want to! I keep thinking of new recipes to share.
• All of my family is happy, healthy, and safe. I have been very blessed for some reason to have great family surrounding me and loving me.  
• My little Xander misses me when I'm gone. It's so fun to hear him run and jabber when he hears me come in the door. Tonight I went to a church meeting and when I came home he just talked and talked like he was telling me all about what he was doing while I was gone.
• The opportunity to sub in Primary today. I love Relief Society but there is just nothing sweeter than hearing children learn and sing about the gospel.  Also, Xander was ten times better behaved this week! I guess he just liked being around the kids.
