Thanksgiving





Our little family had a wonderful holiday. My parents drove in all the way from colorful Colorado to spend it with us. How grateful I am for the love of parents who taught me how to love my kids boundlessly through their love for me. My dad(who can do anything) spent the week fixing all the odds and ends in my house. Seriously he started Friday at 11:30pm and didn't finish until 10:00pm Saturday night. He is awesome, thanks Dad, everything is working great!




My mom and I had a great time together, as usual. We shopped, ate out, went to the movies, and made our way to the Canton fair. I love spending time with you, your a great friend.



Our meal was tasty, but I think we would all agree the best part was the pumpkin cheesecake from Olive Garden. It must have weighed 20 lbs, and was worth every calorie!
Now that things are semi back to normal we have gotten back into our regular routine. Monday was filled with regular monday activities; gym, grocery shopping, laundry, and cleaning. While doing these activities I decided to take a more invested interest in what the boys did and said to me today. Here are a few...



Ben did-as I cleaning up the breakfast dishes something caught Ben's eye. He bent down and reached under the dish washer and pulled out a old nasty piece of popcorn. Before I could swipe it away, he popped it in his mouth and said, "Um, nummy!"




Logan said-Frog is obsessed with making paper airplanes. We made fifty of them during sacrament meeting on Sunday to keep him quiet. But our friend sitting behind us made a sweet one that really flies(don't worry, it was tested at home after church). He carried that thing around the rest of the day and insisted we bring it to the gym and grocery store yesterday. While my mom and dad were here they brought some of my old stuff. In that stuff was an old, blue jewelry box. Logan loved playing with the "cool box with a lock." Once I told him what that box was called he said, "Mom, let's just call it an airplane box instead."
