We had a great Thanksgiving this year, as we always do! I love the holidays so much so they are always so great! To start the day out we did the 'annual' turkey run at Ogden Regional. Kurt and Koy went to play football, which is also a tradition, however this is the first year Koy got to go. The little guys played their own game of football!! This year we ate out at Brock and Whitnie's and I serioulsy felt like a celebrity! Her tables were AAmazing! Like the magazines! They did such a great job! We then went to Kurt's mom and dad's and ate again! Yummy! That night we went bowling with my family and Kurt's family. I'm not sure how it got started but every year we bowl with both our families! How great is that? It's alot of fun! I came home for a little nap and went shopping! Some things I am thankful for this year...
*Of course my hubby and kids but here's why..
*For Kurt for being such a great hubby, always putting us first and working so hard so I can stay home and play with the kids every day!
*For him for being such a good 'daddy' to both kids! They both think they are the favorite and honestly I think they both are! He loves them dearly!
*For Koy for being such a big brother and helper while still being my baby boy! He's such a good friend to his sister and he loves us all so much!
*For Jerzi for being such a princess! For being so strong and brave this last week after having her tonsils out. She tries so hard to be a trooper, even when I can tell she is tired and hurting. She loves her big budder and her mommy and daddy!
*For my mom for loving my kids as her own, and that they love her that much in return. For her always helping when we need it, whether it be big or small.
*For my mom, Jolene, Netso and Grandma King for being such good examples to me as I raise my family! For treating my kids like they are priceless, because they are!
*For Grandpa for teaching Koy how to treat others and how to love football!
*For The Bowdens for always treating us as their own and for treating my kids as gems!
*For friends and neighbors who are there whenever I need anything, even if it's just baking goods!
*For our brothers for always including us in everything they do and for loving us. It's nice to be as close as we are to each sibling.
*For the kids cousins, they have sooo many and love each of them! They are blessed to have that many friends that will always be friends!
*For the opportunity to have 2 heathly kids and another on the way, and for the fact that Kurt will be done with school before the other one arrives!
*For diet coke, chocolate pie, pizza, warm fires, christmas lights, jammies, medicine (today it is needed here for poor Jerzi!!), DVR, blogging, christmas movies (elf, christmas vacation, christmas with the kranks, the santa clause), the smell of candles burning, shopping (mostly sales), and for everything else that makes me smile this time of year! I love it!!
