It'sThanks Giving In America!

So today is the actually holiday of Thanksgiving back in America! Though we won't actually have be celebrating till Saturday, I though it'd be nice to make a list of things I'm really grateful for! Before I start I'd like to say that there are too many things to be thankful for for me to put it all into one list. So there are a lot of other people and things that I'm grateful for!

6.The Internet (it's nice to stay connected)

8. The Church (i seriously do not know how any of this would be possible without it)
9. Scriptures and Prayer (always a huge help)
10. That there are cute boys in my class for me to stare at! ;D
11. Harry Potter 7 (even if i only saw it in French, it ROCKED)

Sunday

Singing in the Rennes!

Home:
So for those of you who may not have been aware, my family officially has a home here in France. It's in a teeni-weeni town called Gévezé, near Rennes! We live right next to a Carrefour (the Ralphs of France) and an adorable park (with pingpong table included)! So we're all pretty happy with where we are!

School:
For a long time,  for many different reasons, schools were really jumping up and down at the thought of having me as a student. So really for the first two months I did nothing but stay home and not speak or hear a word of french, which I why I still remain in my pathetic and totally non-fluent state of being. But that's okay, because now I do have a school! Saint Martin! Not only are the teachers not completely terrifying but I also have an American buddy to go with there! So School has been going pretty good! Woo Hoo!

So. . .What Happens Now?:
Well, this has been a really basic little summary of whats happened thus far but I plan to blog AND vlog often about being in France and life's funny little occurrences! I already have to much to tell the world about being here, and I sincerely hope I can get it all out on this blog soon, but for now this will have to do! Thank You, Everyone!
PARTY ON DUDES! ;D
