Wow, so as I sit here, I am trying to wrap my head around the fact that I am now 26 years-old. I feels weird to be 26, because now I am closer to 30 than to 20. It also feels strange, because I still feel, well at least most days, that I am a 21 year-old newlywed. Yet, today marks 5 years ago that Jon proposed to me and I embarked on the best adventure of my life, with the greatest guy I have ever met. So enough of that stuff. I am now going to give you a list of 26 things that I am grateful for.
1. Jon
2. My House
3. My Parents
4. My Nieces and Nephews
5. My Doggies
6. Jon's Job
7. My Education and the awesome people I met up at Weber State
8. My Health
9. My Wonderfully A-M-A-Z-I-N-G Friends
10. Being Able to Laugh Everyday
11. The Gospel
12. My Temple Marriage
13. The Great Country That We Live in, and the Freedom that comes with it
14. Good Music
15. Scrapbooks
16. The Color Purple
17. My Mom's Macaroni and Cheese
18. The Ocean
19. Vacations, especially cruises
20. The Chance to be a Mother Someday, hopefully sooner rather than later
21. My Bicycle
22. Books
23. My Quilt that I got last year for my birthday
24. Pretty Flowers
25. The chance I had to meet Rosie O'Donnell (yes I like her, yes she was really nice, and no I am not weird for liking her)
26. Being able to live 26 amazing years so far, and all the cool experiences I have had so far and being able to look forward to many more to come

Fun times! I liked your idea of writing 26 things you're grateful for. I'll have to do that on my birthday. I'll be 27. And am I weird? But I can't wait to be 30! I have an over romanticized fantasy of what its like to be 30.
Speaking of cruises... are you coming?
What a great list! Happy birthday by the way. Thanks for posting it and helping remind us all to love and be grateful for the little things!
