So Very Thanful!!!!

This being the month of November and it being around Thanksgiving, I thought I would let you all know what I am thankful for. We are in no means very wealthy, however we always seem to keep our heads above water and stay a float, and I am very thankful for that. I am thankful that we have a warm house to stay in, especially since it is getting so cold. I am thankful for those 5 beautiful people you see in that picture. They all play a great role in my life. My husband is absolutely everything I could want and more, we are best friends, he's funny, charming and easy on the eyes! Tianna is my very beautiful princess! She is a lot of work, but definitely worth it! She is funny, and getting to be quite the social butterfly! She is so helpful with Jordan and I just love her! Dallen is my big helper, he is always helping me. He has such a great since of humor, and loves to make people laugh! Brandon is our very outgoing kid, he will talk to anyone, be friends with everyone, and really likes the girls, and the girls like him! Then there is my sweet baby Jordan, who to my dismay won't be my baby much longer. He has the sweetest personality, and loves to be with all of us. As for my parents, I have to say they are pretty amazing, they would have to be they had me and let's face it I am pretty freaking awesome! Anyway, they instilled in me a great love of  the gospel, and taught me what was very important in life. I am so grateful for them and all the sacrifices they made and continue to make to be close to me and my brothers families. As for my brothers who are also pretty amazing, they are a huge blessing to me. They are always there for me and I love that about them. I hope they know that I am always there for them too. My life is amazing and I spend it with some of the most amazing people in this world. So I am rich beyond measure. I am so thankful for this great life and I hope that you all take time to be thankful for your great lives as well!!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!

My beautiful little girl

My beautiful little girl has reached the 5th grade and is learning that it is hard work and that it takes up like her whole day. She has had 2 projects, a science test, a spelling test, the social studies test, and the social studies seca test, and she has another project due tuesday, not to mention the pressure that comes from friends and the long days, and just being tired from late nights of homework and early mornings, and brothers that do a great job at picking................ so NANA TO THE RESCUE!!!!!!!! Tianna loves to bake and be away from her brothers and it is not so easy to get them away from her so Nana is the perfect answer. Hopefully she has had a great time with Nana and can come home and finish the rest of her projects. Thanks Nana for always being there, for always putting the ones you love first, I know that me and Tianna appreciate all that you do. WE LOVE YOU!!!

Halloween pics

I know that Halloween has come and gone, but I would like to post these pictures of the kids in thier costumes. They were all very cute and some scary. THey had so much fun dressing up and going trick-or-treating.

My Little Brandon Bear

On this day 7 years ago, a beautiful boy was born. We named him Brandon Nicolas. He was a joy from the very start. He was born with the culiest hair and now that we shave his head you can't tell. He has the most amazing sense of humor and the sweetest smile, which convienently gets him out of trouble. He is such an amazing kid!!! A great brother and a wonderful part of our family! He makes us laugh, and keeps us on our toes. I am so thankful he is our little Brandon bear. We love him so much!!! Can't believe it has been 7 years! Happy Birthday Brandon!
