Give Thanks

I have soooo much to be thankful for.   I'm thankful for my beautiful family.  I'm thankful they are all healthy and happy.  I'm thankful that I have food to eat, clothes to wear and a home to live in.  I'm thankful that I have a job and that I get to take Andrew and Katie with me and see them throughout the day.  I'm thankful for my parents and my brother and sisters and for their families.  I'm thankful that my parents raised me in the gospel and that I have a Heavenly Father who knows and loves me.  I'm thankful for His son and the Atonement.  I'm thankful for my husband. I'm thankful that he is always there for me and that he is a great father.  I'm thankful for my dishwasher and chocolate cake and Dr. Pepper.  I'm thankful that I live in a free country and for those who fight to protect us.  I'm thankful for a warm bed and a comfy couch and hot water.  I'm thankful for my friends.  I'm thankful that I have so much to be thankful for.

Happy Halloween

Halloween was fun this year (isn't it always fun?).  Eric wanted to be a bandit.  Easy enough.  Charles wanted to be a skeleton with a homemade costume and Katie changed her mind every other day.  She went from Belle to Sleeping Beauty to Snow White.  After going to three different stores I found black clothes for Charles and decided to use glow in the dark paint for the bones.  I should have used white paint first, then the glow in the dark paint.  Live and learn.  His costume turned out good anyway. Katie ended up being Cinderella because I wasn't willing to pay $40 for a Snow White costume. She was super excited because I put make up on her.  Andrew was the cutest little elephant ever!  Here are the pics of our fun.
