Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. Hope we all take the time to be thankful for everything we have (our homes, our family, food on the table, the gospel.) May we take the time to thank our Heavenly Father for everything we have. Have a great day. :)

We did end up with a decent one. You'll have to wait for your Christmas card :)

I just finished a book called These is my Words. It's a fictional journal about a girl in the western territories just before the 1900's. It was pretty good. Thank goodness we didn't live back then! I couldn't bury my kids while traveling and shoot Indians and go through all the sicknesses without modern medicine. Good read.

November Birthdays!

Happy Birthday to Todd on the 9th and Sheri on the 28th!
