Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving was awesome! We spent it with the Nield Family. It was the 'on' year and my sister Lacey hosted it at her house. We had so much wonderful food and had a great time hanging out. I didn't get very many pictures but here are a few to enjoy. We missed Elder Nield! He was with us in spirit and we will soon be able to have him home with us.

This was the best apple pie ever! My dad made it and it was soooo good! Look at how tall it is!

I love this face. He makes me smile!

This is my lovely mom with her cute apron. I love her!

My darling dad happy about something. It looks like he has a piece of turkey in his fingers...who knows what he was smiling about but I love this guy!My beautiful Emma....such a sweet girl.

My beautiful Ellie....growing up too fast.....she is a good girl.

My pretty sister Megan.

I made these yummy crescent rolls.....

and these delicious rolls.

One of the two turkeys that we ate....sooooo good. I love turkey and cranberry sauce....my favorite!

Halloween Fun!

We had a lot of fun this last Halloween. I am such a bad blogger that it has taken me forever to get this up for all to see. The week before we went down to Utah for the yearly Halloween party at Grandma Jean's. It is fun for the kids to be with their Utah cousins and they always have a great time. Thanks to all of the family for a fun time. We enjoy going down to visit.Here's all the Hamblin grandkids in their costumes.

Mr. Hunter was the cutest little alligator ever! If you look close you can see his eye peeking out from under his costume.

Ellie trying to eat her swinging donut.

This poor girl was so sick the day of the party. She spent most of the day in bed with a very high fever but was lucky to be able to have some party fun.

We spent an evening at home making sugar cookies.

Halloween night. Ellie was a 'scary' fairy, Emma was a 'merry' fairy, Slater was 'Optimus Prime' and Hunter was a little alligator.

The day before Halloween Slater dressed as a pirate for the school parade. He looked so stinkin cute!

Hope you enjoyed the few pictures. I hope to post more ASAP!

The big ONE year old!

On September 18 Hunter had his first birthday! Can you believe it? I surely can't. It's kind of sad because we celebrated our last baby's first birthday. Hunter has been such a fun kid and we are thankful that we were blessed to have him come to our home. Happy Birthday little guy!

Just a little bit corny!

On Saturday we got to go out to my parents to be a little corny.....meaning we had a LOT of corn to put up. We picked about 3 wheelbarrow's full of the good stuff. It was a lot of work but so much fun. I think we came up with about every corn joke out there. Good times! I am thankful to have a freezer full of corn. Thanks mom and dad for planting it, watering it, and weeding it so that we can eat it! Oh, by the way, if you have never tried it.....put a thin layer of mayo on cooked corn on the cob and sprinkle it with parmesean cheese.....reallly, really, really good! Try it and you will like it!
