Happy Thanksgiving

What a year! Because of the kind of year we had, I have a deeper understanding of everything I truly have to be thankful for. Sometimes, you don't know how much you've got until it's gone. I am so very thankful for my God, family, kids, my job and my home. Here are some great pics of some of the very special people that helped get us through the last year. They all supported us in one way or another, whether it was with food, money, a night out, free babysitting, a listening ear, job referrals, words of encouragement and most of all prayers. Thank you! We appreciate and are truly thankful for you all!

Can You Believe It?!

Yup, I finally sat down at the computer and posted some quick pics and happenings. Life has been very busy for three months now. Really? I've made it three months now? Last time Morris was out of state I barely made it two months with one two-year-old, master's classes and work. I took Michael to a school read-in tonight. I got a babysitter for Aliyah so Michael and I could go out together. We had a nice time. So, with a little energy left in me, I just said I would sit down and post some quick pics with in the hour. Well, it's past my bedtime so until the New Year....Just kidding. Hopefully it won't be long before I post the other larger, more important posts like Michael's First Day of School, Our Halloween and our visit from my sister and her family. Until then.....enjoy what I was able to post:)

Michael's First Soccer Practice

This attempt did not work last time but I am so thankful it did this time! I was so proud of him. He did it and did it pretty well for the most part. He did keep picking his butt, I don't know what that was all about.

Trouble Adjusting to the End of Daylight Savings...

This boy was passed out by 6:30 tonight.

Aliyah kept tapping him to wake him up to play but was he was out.

Aliyah is Ready for Daycare

Busted!

Picks one out, takes a bite, puts it down, tries another one in hopes that it tastes better.

It doesn't. So, after four I stop her. She wasn't too happy!

What's Up With That?

This is the second time she has pulled her left arm out of her clothing in anger.

Awwwww......Look at the Sleeping Beauties

That Didn't Take Long....

I had only been gone an hour and a half for my heavenly massage and

when I came home, my daughter's hair was done up with ribbon and all.

It looks beautiful mom, should have known it wouldn't take you long.
