Thanksgiving 2010

Due to various circumstances, we spent Thanksgiving with my family again this year.


Henry enjoyed watching the preparation during his first Thanksgiving. However, he missed Thanksgiving dinner due to nap time. He enjoyed some squash later on though.

I made these beauties! They didn't just look good, they also tasted good! Not bad for my first time making these rolls!

This is how Eric prepared for Thanksgiving dinner.

William really liked the rolls. I'm pretty sure that's all he ate. He's not much of a meat eater.

We had a lovely Thanksgiving. It was wonderful spending time with our families. We truly are so blessed and have so much to be grateful for. Here are a few things I am thankful for.
1. My Savior, Jesus Christ - without Him my life would be meaningless and nonexistent
2. The gospel - this blesses my life daily, in every aspect of my life
3. my testimony - because of this I am the woman I am today
4. David - he truly is my better half, he is so good to me, and I love him dearly
5. William and Henry - they bring such joy and fulfillment to my life
6. My family - They are my closest friends and I am so grateful for all they do for me
7. my friends - they bring great strength to my life
8. the temple - I love the spirit that comes into my life when I go to the temple. Plus because of the temple I can be with my family for eternity
9. the scriptures - I know the book of Mormon is true. It blesses my life! I also know the bible is true. I love reading the accounts of Jesus' life.
10. my home - it's not much, but I love it and we have many wonderful memories here
11. books - I love, love, love reading!

The day after Thanksgiving we said goodbye to David's dad. He's gone overseas to work for a year. We miss him dearly!
