HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

So much I want to catch up with, but not enough time!  I'll hopefully I'll get our blog up to date!

But I had a few minutes to wish all our family and friends a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

So nice to have this time of year in addition to Christmas to say THANK YOU to you all for your love, support and just being you!

I'm so thankful for our family (near and far), my wonderful grandparents that stay so strong and keep this family together, the great teachers Emma has this year as she gets ready for her big year next year and all the wonderful friends we have in our life that we know we can depend on at any time. For the lovely State we're living in and now call home and all the good things that come along with that.

Our girls bring us so much joy....I'm thankful for their love for each other!

I'm looking forward to the family time this weekend!!!  Always fun when daddy gets to stay home and we can stay in our pj's a little longer with nowhere to have to rush to, except for maybe a Black Friday deal!!  (Just kidding)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Kids ideas

I'm proud of my Emma.....it always amazes me with the ideas the kids will come up with and how they execute them.   I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to making things that I need to bite my tongue when the girls want to make something on their own.  I always seem to want to add my ideas of how it could be better.

Thankfully this time I was getting ready to take the girls to school so the girls had time to themselves to do whatever they wanted.

Emma took my calender page which I was going to put in recycle.  Flipped it over and drew her picture and decorated with stickers.   There was a hole through which she threaded ribbon which she tied to some plumbing wire to make the handle.  I obviously had to help with the tying but that was it.

Addi and emma worked together to put Addi's together.  For the hole emma just poked a pen thru the paper.

They are so proud of their creations and I'm so proud of them creating something of their own and working together.

The last picture was Addi sitting and saying "I'm just waiting for the wind"
