Thanksgiving Excitement

I can't believe that it's gonna be Thanksgiving in three days. This year has gone by soooo fast. I can't even believe how much my kids have grown and become such great kids. We have three birthdays coming up as well.


Matthew will be home thursday which means we will be cooking at his mom's house for the 3rd year in a row. We already have everything we need for Thanksgiving. I start buying for Thanksgiving in October since we have so many people we are feeding. I love how the holidays bring family together.


Some of my best memories with my family are the holidays, grandma and grandpa cooking dinner for everyone all day long, the smell of the house, and just having family there. There were alot of great memories during the holidays. I miss our family getting together and being close like we used to be. Now we are all married, getting married, and have our own cooking to do. I just wish we could all get together one more time. I miss grandma and grandpa's cooking, it was always a very delicious meal.


After thanksgiving we will be getting to celebrate Brooklyn's 2nd birthday on the 30th. I'm so excited about her cake it's gonna be awesome. Rayna's theme is lavender and zebra and yes tinkerbell, Brooklyn's theme is hot pink and cheetah, and Thomas's theme is Ninja Turtles. I already have her cake ordered and I'm very excited about it. It's gonna be beautiful.


I hope everyone has a very Happy Thanksgiving!! Enjoy family because they are always there for you no matter what!!

Halloween

I have to say Halloween was awesome. My kids got to go trick-or-treating for the first time ever. My kids were dressed up as a fairy, captain america, and a zebra cutie. They looked adorable and they did soo good. I was a very proud mama. They said please and thank you and I got so many compliments about their manners. I love when people give compliments on my kids, it makes me feel like all my hard work is paying off. My kids are my whole world and to see them sooo happy and having fun made my night even better.


It brought back so many memories for me. Bethany drove my car while I walked with my kids. It reminded me of when my sister and I would go trick-or-treating when we were younger. We would go to fritch the night before Halloween for trick-or-treating and grandpa would drive the car while we would trick-or-treat with our dad walking with us or another family member. I came home that night soo happy and I cried because I miss my grandpa and wish he could see how much my kids have grown and wish he could enjoy them.


They came home with bags full of candy. We went to the ranching center, then came home and walked down our street, then half of another block and they had their bags completely full of candy. I was like omg this reminds me of when I was a kid. People in our neighborhood are very nice and keep to themselves. I love that everyone keeps to themselves, and they don't give us hell about our dog or the fact that I blast my music while cleaning. It's so nice to actually have a house.


Once I figure out how to add pictures on here I can post some from Halloween.
