{Happy Turkey Day}....can't believe it got here so fast.

(Isn't this the truth)....the more I have to do, the more I don't get anything done.

{I am sure that we are all guilty}.....of this to some degree. Parenting is tough. Sometimes we forget how hurtful words are.

{I love you}....and all of your imaginary dogs, pigs and sheep. I really wish they would quit making such a mess.

{I really love this time of year}....I know I have a lot to be grateful for and sometimes I take things for granted. I try to do better and be better every year.

{Miss Ava}....

Why do we have to live so far away? She makes me happy.

(Way to go}.....you made the high-school baseketball team. You make me smile everyday even though I don't always show it.

love ya

{This is one kid}....that hates being cold, so when he woke up and saw the snow this morning and he couldn't wait to go shobel(that is what he calls it) I was really surprised. He didn't last long and he had to have 5 layers on plus the awesome googles so his eyes wouldn't get cold. His concept of shoveling snow is getting it off the grass and onto the sidewalk, this made his dad's work a little harder when he got home but he sure thought he helped out. Love my little man....

{I was thinking}....that maybe this would be a good look for family pictures, it really helps with the wrinkles around my eyes.


Derek wasn't really feeling it...
