1. My family. We may have our problems and fights and we may be weirdos (I often feel like I'm the one that got the really weird quirks...oh well), but I love every single one of them!


As well as extended family not pictured. I love you all :)
2. Good friends. I'm not going to put pictures here because there are too many who have meant a great deal to me, and they know who they are. 24 years of friends, that's pretty great.
3. Food. Oh man I definitely have my favorite things, most of which are not healthy but we can't have everything now can we? ;) Here's a few: In n Out. Slurpees. Smoothies. Chili cheese fritos. Soda. Lemon bars. Gelato. Italian food.




4. The places I've been able to travel abroad for whatever reason.
Jerusalem


Italy


Australia

(I have lots more traveling to do here...definitely many pictures to come!)
5. My mission. The whole 18 months and 3 weeks that I spent learning and teaching. The gospel. Italian. People. Life.
6. Physical exercise.

7. Education. And that I'm done with my undergrad haha.
8. Music.
9. Movies.
10. Colors.


11. Hugs.


12. Being outside.


13. The beach.


14. That I believe in Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ, and lots of other things.
15. That I have a testimony and a purpose in life.
16. Really good quotes!
17. Beautiful views.

18. Funny memories.
19. Inside jokes.
20. Technology, except when it's a time sucker.
21. My healthy body.
22. That I can see and hear and smell and feel.
23. The little things that happen every day.
24. That I am happy. And I make the choice to be that way.

I could list all the little things, but these are some of the big things that I think of right now.
I'm a pretty lucky person. Crappy things have happened, and I haven't been happy every day of my life, but I have a lot of reasons to be happy! Life has been good to me and I'm grateful for my experiences, even the painful ones.
Hopefully there's lots and lots of life left to live. I look forward to the experiences to come. :)
love this! And happy happy birthday we miss you!!!
