My favs for 2009


movie: Angels and Demons
book: Chains by Laurie Halse Andersen and on a lighter note: Princess of the Midnight Ball by Jessica George Day
song: 21 Guns by Greenday (because of Gwen)
tv show: Man vs. Food (only show I have watched more than 2 times)
entertaining amazing find: David Blaine (magician) and Jim Gaffigan (comedian)
new activity: facebook, I have loved reconnecting with friends from all over including Argentina!
vacation activity:going down the the alpine coaster up at Park City, sooo fun
restaurant find: Blue Lemon & Hibachi House
date:going to the BYU vs Utah State football game
least favorites of this year:
congress passing so many bills that have put us into greater debt and taking away our liberties in the process
and my own lack of self control, I lost some weight at the beginning of 2009 and went right back...

It's the end of the year. A time for reflection and gratitude for this past year. I have heard many say that can't wait for 2009 to be over and hope this new year brings better things for them. I sincerely hope that each year is better than the last--for every one. I know that it really doesn't depend so much on what is going on in the world or my world but how much I have met my challenges with faith. This year seemed to hold new surprises and challenges I never imagined but that was true of 2008. I am forever grateful for faith in God and his Son Jesus Christ or I may not have survived as well as I did with some of the things I faced. These were those private things we handle and later share when we can. I am also grateful for the temple, my gratitude for the opportunity to go has increased my faith and given me peace. So on a lighter note...what were your favorites of 2009?
Happy New Year everyone! I hope you are all blessed with love, health and peace.
