Happy Thanksgiving!

Our Thanksgiving Day started out with our traditional orange and cinnamon rolls and watching the Macy's Day Parade. We had a very easy going day which was good as I was still recovering from the flu. Although feeling much better I was still very worn out.

We had a delicious dinner with Ma and Pa and a great visit! The kids loved racing with Grandpa and feeding the cows. The clean up was a breeze this year and we were very thankful for Dad's health this year. He gave us quite a scare with his kidney's not functioning properly a week ago. But, he is on a new diet and feels great!


















After Grandma and Grandpa's we went over the The Clem's house and spent a few hours with them visiting and playing cards. They are such a great family and I am really enjoying getting to know Michelle better.

I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! We all have so much to be thankful for..most importantly that we have a Lord and Savior that offers us eternal life for those that seek him. God Bless you all!

Grenada Elementary School's annual Thanksgiving Feast

Here are a few pictures of the annual feast at school. Each class decorates their table with a fall craft. It's always a nice time!

What a busy week!

So to update everyone..I just got home Tuesday night after being in Sacramento for a week taking care of my Mom. Happy to say she is doing much better than when I first arrived. She had her staples removed last Friday and is on the road to recovery. It's just not going as fast as she would like. She is so sick and tired of being tired! It was a nice time with the family and the kids had a blast with their cousins!




My Mother in law is doing better also. She had her staples removed on Tuesday and feels much better with them out!

Other news..Parent teacher conferences were last week and Grace is doing awesome! She made the A honor roll and she and her bestest friend Ashton will be participating in the 4th-6th grade spelling bee in December. My competitive daughter is writing out all the words 10 times each or until she gets them down. I am sure she will do great!



My dear Jeffrey is doing super! He can be so sweet and ornery! He is going through a really picky phase right now. One day he likes something and the next not. He was so excited to see his Uncle Daniel..he needs that boy time. They played and cuddled together so darn cute! He told me today that I am the girl of his dreams! How sweet is that? The next minute he was fighting with Grace over something. But, it is those little moments that keep a Mom sane!

First Snow

We are getting ready to leave for Sacramento but I wanted to share this picture. Our first snow of the season! It won't amount to much but the kids love it!
