Thankful

We are thankful for many things as a family, I feel like we are truly blessed. Sad to say that it does take a holiday such as Thanksgiving to bring those thoughts to the front of our minds. I will start with Sierra, she wrote a note to the family of what she was thankful for and she said,"Thank you for buying clothes for me and making dinner for me and spending time with me." She is so sweet! Bailey is thankful for her family, her friends, and her home. Charlie is thankful for his family, and being able to go hunting. And I am thankful for both of our families. They love us and help us out so much! What would we do without them. I am thankful for our three new nephews and the true blessings that miracles that they are. I love my nieces and nephews so much, I just can't spend enough time with them--they grow up too quickly. We are grateful for our lovely home to keep us safe, and a wonderful neighborhood to feel safe in. We are grateful for good places to work, so that we have hope in this unstable economy. Most of all we are grateful for two beautiful, wonderful children (that we only want to give away about once a week). What would life be like without them to share it with.
In this holiday season we would like to wish everyone all the love, hope, and happiness in the world! We love you all!

Happy Birthday Sierra!!!!!!!

It is Sierra's Birthday today--she is 7 years old. I can't believe how big she is. I still remember the day she was born like it was yesterday. She has been so excited for this birthday, she has been counting down the days for two weeks. She got up early before dad left so that she could open a present. She was supposed to just open one, but she sweet talked dad into opening just one more. She and Bailey made a tower of presents so that she could see them all. She is going to have a bowling birthday party this afternoon and is very excited for all of her friends to go bowling with her. Here are some pictures of the big morning.
