things i miss when i'm down at school

don't get me wrong, i absolutely love being down at school, but i am so ready for thanksgiving break!! so here is my list of stuff i am looking forward to/miss when i'm not at home:

• sleeping on our couches with landon
• watching ace of cakes
• eating amazing food that my mom makes and i don't have to pay for
• driving a car
• reading in our front room (sometimes the only "quiet" place in the house)
• wrestling with my sisters/having hair pulling fights with kelsey
• joking around with my dad
• working on random craft projects
• walking my dog sydney... man i miss her
• helping make dinner or dessert with my mom
• talking about boys/life with my sisters really late at night
• laughing so hard and acting like such a dork that my siblings tell me how embarassing i am
• having free time to do nothing
• going running with brynn
• family home evening, family scripture study, and family prayer (i never realized how much i loved these when i lived at home... but not having it at school makes it that much more special to me)
• shopping with my sisters
• playing mario kart with landon
• watching random videos my dad loves
• sharing clothes with my sisters (i definately love this because my sisters dress so cute!!)
• dancing and singing to the radio with my sisters
• having my mom scratch my head... so relaxing...
• family meals where we sit and talk and laugh
• getting hugs from my family

i'm so glad i will be home next week and i hope i can do some of these things on my list! i'm in a very miss my family mood, but making this list just makes me smile. i'm so blessed to have the relationships i do with my family and i'm so thankful to have them in my life. i love you guys so much!

love always, karina
