Christmas Time

Christmas time is the best time of the year! Lights start going up, Christmas music starts playing on the radio, and the best part of it all is the snow! Everybody gets in the Christmas spirit and everybody seems so joyful! 

Christmas isn't about receiving it's about giving. It feels so good to make somebody's day by giving them the simplest thing, like baking them cookies! I enjoy getting together with my family and spending time making some memories.

What am I thankful for?

I am thankful for many things. Most of all I am thankful for my family. Without my family I would be nothing. Within in these past few years we have had some health scares. Throughout those tough times I have realized how truly blessed I am to have the family I have. We are eachothers  strength, and we'll always have eachother. Some friendships don't last forever but family always stays. 

I have learned a lot from my grandpa who has survived 2 heart attacks, 5 strokes, an amputation, heart disease and diabetes.  He has passed down his wisdom to me and the other grandchildren. I am very thankful for that, because without his positive words that he has passed down I wouldn't be the person I am today. 

I value family quite a bit. I have a strong bond with my family. Not everybody does. I am truly thankful that I was blessed with such an amazing family.
