1. My neighbor Mary. I know I have mentioned she is a great neighbor. Last Wednesday I was taking my girls to dance and we were driving along when my car started to shake quite badly, I was so focused on something I was thinking about and at first I thought it was the music that was causing our car to shake. I finally stopped and discovered that I had driven so far on a flat tire that it had shred and it was clear that we could not drive another inch. We were less than a half of a mile from the dance studio, we could even see it. It was however too cold to walk with my three little girls. Ruffin couldn't make it to us in time to get us to where we needed to go and I sat for a minute deciding what I would do. That is when my neighbor Mary came driving up. She of course saw us stranded on the side of the road, loaded us all in her car and dropped us off at dance. I was so grateful for her that morning and for her timing! We weren't even late for dance!
2. Ruffin. He came and changed my tire, took us out for a sandwich and he is just a great husband:)
3. My picture a day project I am doing with Olivia, Marianna and Kera. I am always the one taking the picture and hardly ever in them, it has been good motivation to turn the camera over to someone and get in the picture. I have about 121 pictures to go in my book so far.
4. Visiting teachers. Mine have come faithfully for months now. I haven't really ever had faithful visiting teachers. It is nice to have people who always go above and beyond their call just for you. It makes me want to be better to those I serve.
5. Bountiful Baskets. It is so hard to get a basket ordered online before they are all gone and this week I was able to get one! Hurray for Saturday!
6. Cuddling with Lucie. She is such a snuggler and I love it!
7. Netflix. We have it streamed through our ps3 and are never without a good movie or an episode of Lost to watch.
8. Photography. It is a hobby that will always keep me studying and learning.
9. Shoe sales. Saturday when we went to Barnes & Noble we ventured out into the rest of the mall. I wasn't looking for shoes that day but was drawn into Dilliards which was having a 40% off sale:) The shoe rack that was right in the entryway was 70% off plus 40% off that price. I was SO excited to find some in my size.
10. Things to look forward to. Right now a few on our list are: Ruffin's sister coming home from her mission in May. Easter, we are excited that this year it is on Conference weekend. Going to Utah to visit family.

We drove past you going out to your car at the library today. We all waved from our heart.
Really Liz - Really? It was in shreds! I love the picture though!! Classic!
Where is the picture of the cute new shoes!!! and ya that tire looked mangled. P.S. There is a great new picture of you on facebook in your cap and gown. I'm sure you would love it to see it and stroll down memory lane.
