Okay, I've been thinking about how many things I LOVE and thought I would make a list (it may get kind of long!), so here it goes...
1. My wonderful husband, Kevin. I thank my lucky stars EVERY DAY that I found him!!!

2. My sweet children, Tyler, Brooklyn, Derek, and Benjamin. They are the light of my life! They have taught me more than I could ever teach them.
3. My wonderful families! I am so blessed to be related to so many WONDERFUL people! I'm also glad that Kev and I are both from large families!


4. All my wonderful friends! I couldn't find pictures of them all! I am so grateful to have had so many wonderful people in my life--I have been forever changed by each one of them.


5. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day-Saints. I am so thankful every day to be a member. My religion is my strength, my comfort, and my rock. 
6. Temples. I love all the temples! I'm so grateful we can escape from the "real world" for a bit and find peace at the temple. My favorite temple is the San Diego Temple (I know, it's probably the most favorite temple out there, but it is absolutely BREATHTAKING!)

7. New York City! Okay, so far my most favorite place in the world is New York City! I love the hustle and bustle, the history, and just the magic of the city! I never get tired of it and it just makes me happy to be there! I'm sad I don't live within driving distance anymore! (Hawaii is a close second)

8. Marshmallow Brownies!!! THEY ARE SO GOOD!

9. Chocolate Chip Cookies! They have to be gooey though. (this picture isn't very gooey)

10. Cocoa Pebbles. They are so good, but I hardly ever buy them because I would eat the whole box. Seriously. Cocoa Krispies don't even come close.

11. Pizza. Okay, if there was one food that I had to eat the rest of my life, it would be pizza. I seriously don't think I could ever get sick of it. (BTW, I do like healthy food too--it's just not as exciting!)

12. My favorite book--Pride and Prejudice, hands down! I love the story, how they speak, the era, Jane Austen, and of course Darcy! It is magical!

13. My favorite flowers are red Roses, Gerbera Daisies, and Calla Lillies! Aren't they pretty?! They are gorgeous!



Well that is it for now! Sorry, I got carried away! I have a lot more "favorite things" and maybe I'll add some more another day, but for now this is it. Oh and by the way, Benjamin was very patient while I typed this post and this is why...
He was crawling around and found a sucker in Tyler's room. You would have thought he won the baby lottery. He was so proud of himself! I let him "enjoy" the sucker while I typed. He was a MESS, but loved every minute of it!
Afterward, he and Derek had a bath! It's a good thing babies are washable...good as new!

Pride and Prejudice...enough said!! Seriously, I think we are from the same mold cause many of my favorite things are the same. I'm so glad you guys are in Utah because I would miss you so much!! Looking at the picture of us with Amber...I miss being able to see you guys more often! And Amy...we have had so many wonderful friends in our life and I am so glad that you are a part of my life!!
