Life is Good.....

So, this time of year makes you think of your many blessings! And today, I was greatly aware of a few of them. For one, I have family close that I love to see and get to see often. I am grateful to my mom and my sister for all their love and guidance, I dont know what I would do without you. I am so so thankful for Shane, my life is the best it ever could be with him and gets better by the day! I am so very thankful for my kids, Cheyenne for teaching me many lessons mainly in patience, and Mason for his such sweet spirit to keep me sane!

Some trivial things that I realized I was thankful for today, were the fact that it rained here, since we moved here it has not dropped below 85, it was so nice to wear long sleeve shirts this morning and wet with a little rain. Also, for the fact that I only paid 1.93 a gallon for gas today! Amazing! Lastly, I am so excited and thankful that it is only 30 days till Christmas! I cant wait!!!

Thanksgiving Show

Today at Cheyenne's preschool they had a little thanksgiving show. It was so great to see her up there singing with all her classmates. Shane was even able to get away from work for like ten minutes to come and watch. Enjoy the video!

Still.....

Cheyenne and Mason are still really obsessed with Trick or Treating right now! About three or four times I day I walk down the hall and find then Trick or Treating to each other, and giving each other random toys as the candy. I think that next year is going to be a blast if they are that excited still!

The Kids Will Play

When Mommy is working in her office, the kids tend to be very very naughty! This is what happened yesterday when I was trying to finish the invites for my best friends shower!

The entire bottle had been poured out onto the couch and the floor in my living room. By the time daddy was home it was clean but oh my goodness did it smell like baby powder in here!

The kids of course got in trouble but not before I got a quick snapshot of them being naughty!

Dean Comes to Visit

Monday, Cheyenne's bestest friend Dean came to visit! She has missed him so much since we moved to the Desert, she was excited. His mom Megan, is a great friend of mine too and I cant tell you how great it was to see her, she is an amazing person and a great example of a awesome mom! We took the kids to the Living Desert, which is basically a zoo out here by us, the kids had a blast and we enjoyed catching up and chatting while the kids ran around and around. Mason thought he was so big, he got to push the wagon with Cheyenne and Dean in it! Then we brought the kids home and had dinner and just hung out for a while. Megan and I made some soap from a kit that she purchased from the store, it was totally easy and fun, we had a good time.

Thanks so much for coming to visit, we are feeling a little lonely today and miss you already!

Auntie Again!

I am happy to announce that I am an Auntie once again! My niece Brooklyn Jane was born yesterday, I dont know what time, but I got a call at like 7:00pm so I am sure it was before that. She weighed in at 8 lbs 7 oz which is funny because that is exactly Cheyenne's weight when she was born!

Welcome Brooklyn!

Congrats Lincoln and Jennifer and Big Sister Mackenzie!
