Happy Thanksgiving

This year we hosted Thanksgiving for 24 people at our house. Pauls brothers(scott, Kent and Keith) and their families, his sister Kims family and Ken and Rick(his sister Jenni's boys) were all there. It was craziness but so much fun!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Kade and Jaxon both go to preschool Tuesdays and Thursdays. Jaxon's is a play and learn group to help with his speech. He's been in speech therapy for about 5 months. For Thanksgiving, they each made turkey hats and thought it was pretty funny. Kade also made a sign that said "I am thankful for my brother".

 How sweet is that!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!

November was crazy for us with vinyls that I hardly took any pictures (sad right?).  The most exciting part of the month was Thanksgiving weekend. The kids and I had Wednesday off this year. On Tuesday Utah put out a Blizzard warning (I've never seen one of those in the 9 years we've lived here) and were told to stay inside. It wasn't near as crazy as any other storm but it was FREEZING! While holed up inside, we got a delivery from UPS of all our packaging tubes (for vinyls).

The kids and I decided to make a fort. They had so much fun. The girls even slept in it that night.

On Wednesday, we headed up to Idaho.  We got some new TVs (the girls share two and the boys share two) and Jaxon was finally old enough to watch and loved it!

The roads were icy and we had a little scare (spinning out on the black ice... S.C.A.R.Y,) but made it to Paul's brother's place in Rexburg safely. Kent and Stacy were nice enough to host our family, the Myers and Scott's Family. It was cozy but so much fun! The boys went shooting.

We had trash can cooked turkey. 

The cousins wrestled...

Poor Paige tried to stay out of the way...

We went shopping on Black Friday. Idaho black Friday is nothing like Utah. Everyone was nice. We did make overs. Bailey loved that Aunt Jenni made her hair look so pretty!

 We went sledding.  Poor Andi got knocked over by the girls but she was one tough girl!

Jaxon liked the snow until it went through his gloves...

We had so much fun!

Happy Thanksgiving

I love how everyone made a what they are thankful for list so...

My Thankful List:

1. My family! Obviously this is number one. My husband and kids make this life worth living. We have a great extended family who we just don't see enough but we love them all!
2. Being pregnant. Its crazy and tiring to grow a person in you but there is no greater blessing. I am even more grateful that morning sickness/exhaustion is over!!
3. My job. I get done at 12 most days and have lots of time at home. There's not many full time jobs like it!
4. Paul not working for Target anymore!!! We can finally enjoy the holidays and see Paul. The holidays tended to be stressful and tiring for Paul taking away from the fun of it all. I'm even more excited that for the first time in 5 years, we get to go to California! Christmas in the warmth is a very merry Christmas indeed.
5. For blogging. I seriously love it! I love reading peoples comments and catching up with everyone's lives through their blogs. Its fantastic!
