12 Days of Christmas

On the 4th day of Christmas I am thankful for these places on earth...

1. My home

2. the temple (all of them really, but that would count for more than 12 places)

3. Irvine- where I have so many great friends and my kids have great teachers

4. BYU Study Abroad Center in London- I only lived there 6 months, but that experience changed my understanding of the world and my personality for the better.

5. Zagreb, Croatia- I met so many wonderful people there and had amazing spiritual experiences.

6. Novi Sad, Serbia- What a special town with such generous people.

7. Beograd, Serbia- I truly did love every minute there- walking, crammed buses, kind people, yummy food, special friends, musical firesides, FHE with the branch, crazy tracting stories and the farmers market (I loved that about Zagreb and Novi Sad too).

8. BYU- every fall I wish I could go back. It is one of the prettiest college campuses in the world.

9. IHS theater- so many great memories, lessons learned, talents shared, and now I get to watch Amber there too.

10. Hawaii- the most relaxing vacations I have ever had

11. NYC- "what is it about you?"

12. My parents home- no matter where we have lived it has always been a place of love,laughter and fun.
