Thanksgiving & my 21st birthday!

So yesterday was Thanksgiving and also my 21st birthday! And I was a little bummed out because Blake and I weren't able to go back to Utah to spend Thanksgiving with our families. And even worse I had to work! :( While having my own pity party I had time to think about the things I am grateful for.
First, my wonderful amazing husband Blake who is my rock and who I have grown even closer to since we have been married and out here in Cali. by ourselves. He has done so much for me and he is so patient with me even when I take things out on him when he hasn't done anything to me. I've been so very blessed to have him as my husband and I am indeed very grateful for him and all that he does.
Next would be both of our families! They are both amazing and they always show us so much love and support. They have helped shape us into the people Blake and I are today.
Our wonderful friends would be next, the ones we left in Utah, and the ones we've made here in California. And like our families they have given us so much support and their friendship means to the world to us.
The next on my list would be the Vasher family, who we spent Thanksgiving with and the family who always has there doors open to Blake and I and the team for that matter. They truly care for us and it meant so much to me when they had us over yesterday. They even had a birthday sash for me to wear. :) We had so much fun with them and since we couldn't have Thanksgiving with our own families we definitely had the next best thing! :D



Starting with me, there's Blake, Grace, Cameron Gardner, Matt, Chris Lee, and Kyle.
Playing some Yatzee!

Playing Wii tennis!
I have alot of things I am grateful for like church, the apartment I live in, the things we have, our health, love, humility, the job I have, and much much more. But this post would go on and on and on...
Finally, for my 21st birthday, Blake knew I was pretty sad that I couldn't be with my little sister Keila (pic. below) who I always share my birthday with, her birthday is the 26th, she turned 18 and since 18 and 21 is suppose to be a big deal it was hard for us to be apart since we never have been. But having Blake with me was great and he made my birthday special, out of everything he gave me, I loved the card the most, it meant so much to me and it made me cry! Haha! I'm a baby! But overall I did have a good birthday and I'm glad I was able to spend it with the people I was with!

Happy Birthday (late)! I think you forgot to mention that you are grateful for me though...that's okay, I forgive you. Ha ha jk. In answer to your comment on my blog: We are great! We really should get together when you guys come visit...maybe dinner and a game night with a bunch of couples?!
