The Day Before Thanksgiving

 

Boys watching cartoons together.

 

Grady put his own puzzle together.

 

"I did it!"

 

"I tired, want your little pillow Mimi."

 

Ready to go outside with brother's water bottle in mouth

because he knows it will make Connor mad.

It was so much fun.

Tuesday

 

Today I'm getting ready for the kids to come over tomorrow. Making sure the bedrooms are together

start prepping food.I'm gonna make my own cranberry sauce today so by Thursday

it will be perfect. Both Matt and I are looking forward to seeing our kids and

grandkids tomorrow for a couple days.

Happiness

Almost Turkey Day

 

Crystal, James, the boys, Heather, James Mom, and possibly brother and his family are all coming

to our house for Thanksgiving.

I am excited to see the kids, and thankful the boys are cooking the Turkey

outside, after last years oven fire.

So hopefully it will be wonderful and peaceful.

Wishing my parents would be here with us to celebrate this year!

 

Thought this was super funny!

Family Rules

 

Great rules to live by!

Guardian Angel Whispers

 

I love this depiction of a Guardian Angel watching over a

human's shoulder.

So when you hear a whisper you know that they are

there with you.

Comforting!

Old Times

 

Doesn't it look like Heather is floating across the floor? Sasha and Crystal at Xmas and at Lake Powell with Heather.

 

Easter! Great picture of mom, dad, Jay, and the girls.

 

Grand Canyon 1996 on way to Powell Trip from hell!

Heather learning to waterski.

 

Old School of the girls and I. Peace!

Amazing Genes

 

Heather was 2 and Crystal was 7

 

Grady is 2 and Connor is almost 5

 

Crystal's children look just like mine! Genes are amazing things!

Disneyland 1995

 

The girls all got a kick out of me posting this on facebook.

Crystal is a very serious pre-teen!

Sasha thinks she's dressed like a boy.

And Heather loves the picture.

 

I am going through old pictures, so expect some real

throwbacks, it ought to be fun!

For me atleast...

Heather's Birthday Celebration

 

Matt and I met Crystal, James, and the boys at Heather's to

celebrate her Birthday.

 

 

Sweet!

Breath

 

Breathe, and enjoy the day!

It might be the last one we get...

To Mom and Dad

 

I thought this was a good Prayer for this day!

Love you Mom and Dad

Keep Going

 

This made me laugh, a good way to look at never giving up.

 

This is so true, no matter what we, as individuals, are going through, there is always someone else

who is going through something worse.

You have to be able to be happy everyday with yourself,

unconditionally! Tomorrow will always be a different storm.
