Happy Thanksgiving!!

It's  time to give thanks.   We are thankful for our family, friends, health, home, jobs, food, the 
men and women fighting for the freedom we enjoy,  this beautiful valley we call home now
and all of our blessings.  We realize we are blessed because we have the gospel in our lives, we
can't imagine and don't want to think of our lives without the gospel. 
We've finished the feast we all worked so hard on all day and are now relaxing in our p.j.'s.
We're humoring Jeff and pretending to enjoy watching Animal Planet with him :) 
OH, OH, OOPS!  did I forget to say Edward......with 4 pre-teen/teen girls in the house we of 
course cannot forget we are thankful for Edward.  We've been to midnight showings, regular
showings and will go to Twilight again this holiday weekend I am sure. 
We hope everyone had the opportunity to count their blessings today and will continue to do
so often, to take a minute slow down, cherish the simple things in your life.   Our lives are 
so busy and change quickly keep your eyes peeled and don't miss a thing!

Hi Martha-

I was blog hopping and ran into your blog. Loved seeing pics of your family. I remember your son, Matt as a round faced little guy...now so grown up. And your girls...what beauties. I hold a special place in my heart for the 4 plus 1 combo with kids. Send me your email address so I can send you our Christmas Card/letter. Hi to you all!
