Little Blessings

 

We went for a drive yesterday and saw these flying near the Snake River. They are White American Pelicans...they were majestic and quiet and beautiful. I thought that you had to live near the ocean in order to see pelicans. Here's a little tidbit: They have a 9 foot wingspan...it was incredible! We saw seven of them with two babies flying back to their homes, I assume. I only wish that I had taken my camera because this picture doesn't do them justice. As we drove around our new city yesterday looking for all of the "hip spots", (think of Nephi or Sanpete, Ut) I couldn't help but think about all of my blessings and all of the wonderful times that I have ahead of me. What a wonderful time it is to be living! I am so grateful to a loving Heavenly Father for all of the little gifts that he gives to me each day. It is so very cheesy, but seeing those birds yesterday was one of those gifts. Lots of Love to all of you!
