349. Today I am grateful for Mountains

As we leave Utah and head back to BC I am reminded of my love for mountains. Utah and BC both have pretty amazing mountains!

348. Today I am grateful for Salt Lake City

We spent most of the day in Salt Lake City today and it was lots of fun. I especially love temple square, the visitors centre and the church history museum, not only are they awesome but there free.  I also love the Family History Library but didn't go there this time. I am grateful that the Mormon Pioneers did settle the Salt Lake Valley and that their history has been preserved.

347. Today I am grateful for hugs

I like hugs and I am grateful for its expression of love, friendship and caring. I have gotten lots of hugs these past few days from my nieces which are the best kind of hugs!

346. Today I am grateful for Ice Cream

I love ice cream and enjoy trying different flavours. So smooth and creamy ... what’s not to like? I have heard a lot about the BYU Creamery and so I decided I needed to go and try their ice cream. I went with my brother, my sister and her husband and children. I got the Strawberry Sundae ice cream with a brownie and it was really good, it lived up to its expectations! J

345. Today I am grateful for Monopoly Deal

Every family has “their game”, ours used to be Pictionary but now it’s Monopoly Deal. My sister gave me this game for Christmas 3 years ago and then soon after my brother, my Dad and my sister (who got me the game) all bought one for themselves. Now no matter whether we are in Edmonton, Surrey or Provo someone has the game and were bound to spend a couple of hours playing.

344. Today I am grateful for swimming pools

I enjoy swimming and especially on really hot days ... I am grateful for swimming pools.

343. Today I am grateful for Highways

I am grateful for Highways that stretch throughout the continent to help make travelling more efficient and get you where you want to go faster.

That is if you’re on the right highway, we actually ended up staying the night in Montana instead of Oregon because we made a wrong turn. It will prob. Add a few more hours onto our trip but we will in Utah today!
