I hope everyone has a nice Thanksgiving and you all get up really early so we will see you shopping in IF. What a great day Huh!!!! It makes me tired just thinking about it, but what a fun memory. See ya.

Update! Update!

I get on the blogs all the time and I get really sad if you haven't all posted. Then, I looked at mine and realized I am really bad at keeping mine updated. I guess I don't have too much going on. I cleaned my house really good the other day, mopped the floor, scrubbed the toilets, scrubbed the tub and shower, did the laundry, vacuumed, and cleaned and inventoried my storeroom. It made me feel pretty good, but it is a bit messy again. Oh well!!!
David is doing really good. He is working for Lyle Rumsey right now doing concrete work. He helped Dirk do some insulating and will help him finish that soon. He bought a used Ford pickup yesterday. It's pretty good looking and he's pretty proud. I don't know what it is about a man and his truck. I'll have to take a picture tonight and post it on here so you can see it. All is well at the Poulsen house.

Being Grateful

Today is a very dreary day outside and my mood is a little bit like the day. I have been a bit weepy lately and I need the sun to shine. I get feeling down and then I realize how blessed I am. I have a wonderful family of my own that are so good to John and I. I have the sweetest grandkids, they are all healthy and happy. They have parents that are so good to them and they are great kids. I have a super husband that works extra hard, probably a lot harder than most. He is very good to me and treats me with such respect. I truly love him. I have wonderful brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, aunts and uncles that I really think the world of. I come from the best parents in the world, and I miss them a lot. I am so thankful to live in this land of America and to have the freedoms we have. I'm thankful to have the gospel in my life and the blessings of the temple. It's neat to know that all your children can be there with you if we all do what's right. I'm thankful for my home and the comfort and peace we can find there. For the warmth, food and security of having such things.
Maybe its because its starting to be the holiday season-we all get a little more melancholy and more loving. Anyway, for those of you that read this blog, please take a few minutes and remember how grateful you are for the blessings that you have. Be grateful and let someone know how much you love them. Have a great week.

Good Times

We had a very fun Halloween with all of the grandkids as you can see if you have read all the other blogs. I have the sweetest grandkids and kids. They are all very special to us and we love each one of them for who they are. They are all unique and bring joy and happiness to us with all their different personalities, talents, and zeal for life. David, our youngest has returned from his mission in Japan and we love him so much and are so proud of him for the sacrifice that he made to serve the Lord. Missions aren't easy. And, I appreciate these young men that give it their all to do their best. He is definately a stripling warrior in my eyes and a very worthy, righteous young man. Thanks David for being who you are. We all love you!!!!
