Thanksgiving....

Thanksgiving was a great day. We spent it with friends and had a great time. The kids also had a great time with the Thanksgiving baking. Eric is so good with letting the kids get in and help him especially when he makes his famous apple pie. They squished the crumble mixture for the apples pies and thought that was so much fun! Thomas and Avery each had their own bowl they were mixing and Brynnley wanted her own bowl to mix things as well. Eric put a little flour in hers and right away she started rubbing it on her face. That was one of the highlights of the day.

While I was making rolls, I was walking around the corner and saw Thomas reading Eric's ortho books. He was going through one of them page by page and was mesmerized. He was so into the book that he didn't even flinch or look up for a second when I walked into the room to take a picture. He is such a observant 4 year old boy with so many questions! Oh the places you will go.........as Dr. Suess says!

I never just think of my blessings and all the things I am grateful for only on Thanksgiving, but it is great day to reflect on all that my Heavenly father has blessed me with. I have way to many to list, but I am grateful everyday for my sweet husband and children, my church(The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints), my testimony....and faith, and to live in America where I have freedom. These just top the list, but with just these things, I am richly blessed! We are living, we are laughing, and we are loving it!
