a "Thanks" to Thanksgiving!

I just wanted to share with everyone how much I appreciate everyone (aka: friends, neighbors, family...) and that you all mean so much to us and have done so much to help us! I also want to tell my husband how much I love and appreciate him for all of his hard work with work and at home. He is a wonderful father and husband who plays with his kids and plays with Blake and teaches him soooooo much. He helps me to strive to be a better wife and mother. I know I am not the best at being a wife or mother and I am OCD on my house, but I want to tell him "THANK YOU" for putting up with me and helping me to strive to be better. My kids are wonderful and I am greatful each day that I can stay at home with them and watch them grow and learn with them and watch them learn new things! They are fun and I love being with them. It is hard at times because we all need our sanity and talk to an adult every so often, but I am glad that they don't go to a babysitter and I get to stay at home with them. We are blessed to have wonderful family so close by and wonderful neighbors whom I have loved to go walking with and talk with! So, I hope all of you have a WONDERFUL "THANKSGIVING" and remember all that we are thankful for and try to help others this next year and put forth our willing spirit to be there for others and better ourselves! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!

Marissa's "New hair Cut!"

So, Marissa's hair cute hangs in her face and she needed something to fix it and she hates having her hair pulled up. I believe she gets headaches, so to fix that problem, I get her haircut today! She was very brave and she did so well sitting there on the stool! She was very cute and she loves her new style. So, hopefully she will let me curl it out or under everyday so it will look nice!! Here are some pictures of her!

Random Pictures!

Here are some more pictures of my kids. For the past few weeks I have been trying to get pictures of my kids that are cute so that I can put together a card for christmas. Here are some pictures that I took of them. It is hard to get them all to smile and look at you all at the same time! (By the way...if you go so snapfish.com you can order 20 cards for .1 cent each!). It's a great deal. Also if you go to oprah.com and click on Last Wed. show you can order (till Sunday at midnight) a 8x8 or 8x11 book that you can create by yourself! I did one for my little girl for christmas because she loves books!! All you have to do is pay for shipping! (and make an account if you don't already have one!) Good luck!

Wedding Dress for SALE!!

Hi, I am cleaning out some of our stuff and getting rid of stuff that is taking up too much of our space so I am trying to get rid my my Wedding Dress since I won't be using it anymore! Why I ever bought one in the first place....Was a dumb idea. You use it once....then what.....it's a waste of money to buy one! Oh well!! I know my wedding dress is still in style because I saw 2 of them just like mine that people are selling, but they are bigger sizes!! Here is a description of mine: It is made by "Eternity" and is a size 6. It has embroidery flowers throughout the dress making it look elegant looking and very sophisticated. It has a round neck and short sleeves. It has a train that can be hooked on to one of the buttons on the back zipper. It has stylish buttons that go up the back of the zipper. This dress is clean and comes with a bag for the dress.
If anyone knows anyone who is interested in a Wedding Dress for Cheap....lead them my way!! I do my my dress on KSL also!! Thanks! (Here are some pictures of my dress)

My "Chief Black Bear"!

The other day in Pre-School Blake learned about Indians and Pilgrims so they made Indian hats and painted all the kids faces! He looked so cute and was fun! Here are some pictures of him!

Primary Program!

Last Sunday our Primary had their Program and they did such a FANTASTIC Job! It was well done! Blake, as a Sunbeam, did a wonderful job! I couldn't believe he knew most the words to all the songs that they sang! I was way impressed! He amazes me everday on what he learns! He is growing so big and such a wonderful helper to me with his 2 sisters! He is a good boy and we love him. His part in the Program was, "He teaches me to Pray, about what I have read". He did it all on his own in front of everyone in the microphone and he said it so well!! It was fun to watch him up there!! We have a fun ward!!

Our "Thankful Turkey!"

I got this idea from my sister who lives back East. We did this for FHE, and my kids loved it and thought it was great! We explained what it meant to be "thanful" and we all came up with ideas of what we are Thankful for!! It's a GREAT FHE Lesson!! Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

It's Fall Time

Here are some pictures that I tried taking of my kids in the leaves!! We have so many leaves that fall from our tree. It's unbelievable. Last weekend we picked them all up (thanks to our good neighbor) for helping us and for Tony's dad for mowing our lawn for the last time this year!! Our yard looks somewhat better, but now we have more leaves that need to be picked up, but thanks to the rain.....it hasn't stopped!! My kids have fun in the leaves. They like to jump and play around in them! They also like being outside!!



Also, here are some single pictures of my kids all cute and stuff!!

Voting!

So I went to go vote today. I went when it was pouring rain trying to turn into snow! We and my 2 kids got pretty wet. It's almost scary to go and vote because tomorrow we will see who will be our next president for the next 4 years and how the world will change in just a blink of an eye. I hope the next time around.....we will get some people running who know what to do and how to really make a difference in this world and actually help this world out!! So go and vote and lets make sure we have a good ending in the end!
