Our table was so nicely set by the girls.

Christian made a great turkey. I'm grateful that he enjoys cooking and he does such a great job.

It was fun to visit with Gloria in the kitchen while cooking and learning about family traditions, distant family etc....

Jordon sure enjoyed visiting with Grandma Brooks and telling her all sorts of stories.

Jenson was sure glad Grandpa Wray was so willing to box with him on the Wii.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

We were able to have Christians parents - Doug and Gloria - come and stay with us for a couple of days and have Thanksgiving with us. Our family really had a nice visit and enjoyed sharing memories with them. We are glad that they were able to come. (We are thankful that they were able to share their pictures with us too. Thank You! -- We were also able to have my mom share in our Thanksgiving. Our children enjoyed having both grandmas here. We really appreciated the crafts (Endless Fun!) Thank You! -- We were glad Eric, Jamie, and Bailee were able to come and enjoy some pie and some Guitar Hero with us. (Next time maybe we'll pull out the karaoke)

We had our own series of unfortunate events happen this last little while. Where they were and are unfortunate through it all we are blessed to see the fortunate out weigh the unfortunate.--We are grateful for family and the many many blessings we have been blessed with. We thank our Heavenly Father for all of our family and blessings.

We did get these two pictures of Brooklons birthday friend party. We set the table with High School Musical stuff. (Our camera died after these two pics.). We are sad that you are'nt able to see the rest. The other pictures were sooo cute.

Some of our dear friends stopped by to play. We really enjoy their family and always have good times when we're with them.

Thanksgiving place card making.

Jenson, Jordon and I had a fun time making turkey hand print name/place cards for the Thanksgiving day table.

We love our Gavon. He is such a sweet baby. 9 months almost 10.

Blog Catch UpBrooklon had her 10th birthday. It's hard to believe that she is already 10.

We had a family party and a friend party. These pictures are from the family party. The pictures from the friend party are stuck on my phone and won't be able to be off for awhile. BUT! Both parties were fun. Brooklon has many friends and they are all silly/crazy like she is.- We played a High School Musical game, made up team cheers, had pizza and Sesame Street cupcakes (the girls absolutely loved them-good pick Brooklon) and opened gifts. Brooklon had a fun birthday week.

Happy Birthday Brooklon!

November 16th 2008-Jordon Wray gains a new "Hospital Buddy". The first buddy he got when he broke his arm.

The next "Hospital Buddy" was given to him tonight. Those aren't whiskers on his upper lip.

3 stiches. We need to find a new way to obtain buddies. I even brought Jordon a buddy home from Michigan. I guess one wasn't enough. -This is the blood/medicine stained church shirt, our lovely baby boy Jordon, and our new buddy Blitz.

Brooklon, Gavon, and I were able to go to Michigan this last week. My sister Summer had an emergency c-section and we were able to fly out and help out.It was nice to see their lovely home and family.

Our new neice and cousin-Nichole

Every where we went (Dr. office, airport, etc..) many people would come to us and say "What a pretty girl" "What pretty eyes she has" "She seems so tired" "What's her name" - HIS name is Gavon. HE is a boy wearing blue. And HE is tired and would love to sleep if everyone would stop petting him.- It got a little crazy. 12 hours in the airport due to delays. A very tired, teething, sick baby. And a very tired, sooooo sick mom. I don't think I want to fly anywhere for awhile. Although it was fun to see Summer and her lovely family and home I was ever so thankful to also see my bed, home, family, pillow, etc... Thank you Cuff family for letting us stay with you and visit.

Brooklon playing with a cootie catcher while waiting forever for the plane. And Gavon on his next to last string.

I don't know who had more fun, the ones giving the ride or the one getting the ride.

Halloween seemed to come and go so quickly.
Landon was dracula.

Brooklon was Ragedy Ann

Maron was Cindy Lou Who (from the Grinch)

We loved her hair

Madison was a cow girl

Trenton was a skeleton

Jenson was going to be Batman but at the last minute decided to be Hulk

Jordon was going to be Buzz Light Year but at the last minute decided to be a puppy. I'm glad we just have a bunch of costumes to choose from.

Gavon was Charlie Brown. Isn't he so cute?

We had a great Halloween.
