Who knows what will happen next? I know that Heavenly Father knows and when I take the next turn in my life he is waiting just around the bend. I know he's always there for me and loves me. I'm so grateful for the gospel in my life and all of it's treasures. I'm thankful for my church leaders and all that they've taught and will continue to teach me:D I'm thankful for all of the examples in my life. My mom, dad, Burke, Rachel, Aiden:D, Zach, Jill, Casen and Luke:D, Neal, Payden, and Eli. They are all such amazing people and I don't know how I'd get along without them. I've realized that life is beautiful no matter what happens to us, there is beauty everywhere and I need to be thankful for it and be more positive in my life. Thanks to everyone in my life, YOU have made a difference to me:D<br /><br />Hope<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5285901347054100867-4456160270429850578?l=letyourlightsoshine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Hopehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17684749855606110316noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5285901347054100867.post-17821758734393856912011-03-19T17:48:00.001-07:002011-03-19T18:06:48.243-07:00<div>I know it was months ago, but I'm just posting now, so here's our Christmas in St. Johns!</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-NsRAPV29bGI/TYVRFK8oQoI/AAAAAAAAARg/_hU_VrpJIz8/s1600/DSC_0819.JPG"><img style="display:block;
