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!
