Today I am thankful for goofy brothers! Landen came to visit this weekend, and though my house has never been messier, I sure love having him around! It's sometimes nice to kickback, relax and eat ice cream and watch movies all night long. :)
Thankful Day 4 - Eternal Families
On Thursday, November 3rd, 2011 our Heavenly Father called one of his most wonderful angel daughters back to him. My grate-grandmother Nora Rust Mickelson past away after 99 years and 11 months on this earth. Never have I met a more devoted, spiritual woman. She raised my grandmother to be one of the most outstanding and strong women I know, and in turn my mother was raised the same way. I only hope that I can live up to the wonderful legacy this woman has left on the earth.
Today I am ever so thankful for the knowledge of eternal families and the peace this brings when we lose someone dear!
Thankful Day 3 - My Daddy
I am so thankful for my wonderful father. On Thursday night he was the key note speaker for the Marriott School National Advisory Council (The NAC) dinner. I was so impressed with his presentation, his knowledge, and all of his years of detection. I was also impressed because I got to meet people like James Christiansen and Frank Magelby. Yes, I was in a room full of the CEO's from all the major companies around the world and I got all worked up by the painters. What does that say about me? And to think i'm attending business school...
Anyways, back to dad - He is an amazing example in my life. He never lets me settle for less, always expects more, pushes me to become the person that he knows I am capable of, even when I don't see it. He doesn't accept excuses and is the hardest worker i've ever met. I am so grateful that my Heavenly Father sent me to my dad.
