thanksgiving 2010

i am pretty much SO thankful for SO many things but it all boils down to family.

i heard something awesome from a pretty neat lady yesterday.

you don't leave this world with anything you have except your children (family).

so true. none of the "stuff" here matters. none of it.

so thankful for family, all of them.

super thankful for my husband and kids.

feel so glad that i get to keep them forever.

Helping at Mema and Pepa's

the price i pay for a shower

this happens almost everyday. maybe i should stop being a bum and wake up early to shower.

yes that is all of my furniture moved to the middle of my family room. the kid is strong!

visit from adelyn and livia

had some fun at jumpin jacks...with mustaches!


LOOK how pretty this babe is! she is teeny tiny but walks and talks, it's shocking!

sleepover at mema's....poor mema. and griff just HAD to put "his" guitar next to maddy's


darling little cousins...addie and griff LOVE each other. lala and no, not so much!

dentist

Griff had his first dentist appointment and all is well. Thank goodness! The boy eats candy like it's going out of style. But we do brush and floss regularly so maybe that's the ticket!

He did really well and sat still and did everything they said. He fussed a couple of times and I really felt for him when he did. I hate the going to the dentist, everything about it. I would rather die.

Had his first dose of flouride too, nasty.

cooking

cooking is NOT my thing, it just isn't. i have always despised it. i am pretty sure if i had a ton of money to buy all the best kitchen supplies and fancy ingredients, i would love it a bit more. also, if i could cook in complete peace i think i would be much more into it. i feel like i am always rushing and juggling a million things while i am making dinner. not fun.

with all that said, i am beginning to be a little more into it these days. loving this show right now. this girl is darling and i love her style of cooking.

also, i am obsessed with this recipe...it is so dang good. try it! i try to make my own cornbread when i have time to. if not, i just buy the jiffy one.

happy cooking!

Air Show

Went to the Las Vegas air show today and it was a blast. Made me think of my cute pop's a lot. And how much I used to love seeing him walk in the door from work wearing his army green zip up flight suit. Super cool. Saw lot's of those suits today.

The boy's had a great time and were so good the entire day. Thank goodness for that because it was a lonnnng day! Went with the Barber's and had lots of fun.
