Gobble, Gobble......

We had a great Thanksgiving!!!! We spent it with the in-laws

in Wyoming!!! My little bug got to meet her Grama and pa

for the very first time!! She actually did pretty good with

them. Not too scared!!! Anyway, we spent three days with

Connie and we had great time. Great food, great family, and

lots of games and fun. The drive to Wyoming is always fun

too...(ha ha) we made the drive and 5 1/2 hrs. Which is

pretty good, but for four little ones and a mom that hates to

travel it was very long. Every hour we got to hear from one

of the girls "are we there yet?" But after we got there all

was forgotten!!! We drove their on Wednesday, we ate all

day on Thursday and all the kids got to play with all their

cousins, then we did a little shopping on black Friday, and

spur of the moment came home late on Friday night. That

drive was so much better!!! We still did it in 5 1/2 hours

but the difference was two of my girls slept almost the

whole way. I used to think that people were crazy driving

that late..........but not anymore. They had it all figured out!!!

My little boss and her new friend (cousin). They had so

much fun playing with each other!!!

Friday we went for a walk around the state park. The girls
had so much fun. We went on a swinging bridge and got to
touch the warm mineral water!!!

I just want to take a minute and tell you all the things I am

grateful for!!! It is pretty sad that sometimes takes a

Holiday made for for being thankful to make us think about

it. I am so thankful for my family!!! They are so important

to me. I am thankful for all our good health!! There are

some families that have to go through lots of trials with

that. I am grateful we are all strong and healthy. I am

thankful for a great husband who takes care and loves us.

He is a hard worker and I appreciate all he does for us.

I am grateful for the gospel and for the happiness it brings

to our lives if we live the way we should. I am thankful for

the freedoms that we have. It seems like with the past

election that everyone is a little uneasy about how things

are going to go especially with how the economy is.....but

we should all be thankful for those freedoms that we take

for granted.
