What a great day to remember how fortunate we are and how God has blessed our lives fully! We had a very blessed day! We love you all and are very blessed to have each one of you in our lives! We miss you!
We spent the evening at Kara and Rick's house! They we kind enough to move dinner to their house since I had the Turkey Trot during the morning. It made it a very relaxing afternoon for me...but, not for Kara, I'm sure! We had an awesome dinner and a great time with the family. We even got to see Garett for a little bit. The girls had a great time and were so glad that Grandma was here!!!

Turkey Trot
Today we started our Thanksgiving by joining 30,000+ in the annual Turkey Trot! It was my first race and it was awesome!! I completed the full 8 miles! Yea!! I loved it! And, of course I had my biggest fans cheering me on! Thanks J, E, and L! Our friend Michael (of Michael and Jennifer...neighborhood, life group, etc.) joined me to help show me the ropes. Thank goodness! I would have been lost. :) It was a great start to a great day!
On our way to City Hall to start the race.
About half way
Getting ready to cross the finish line!

What a great time! The kids did a little Thanksgiving performance and then had a feast. She was a pilgrim! It was so cute! I can't believe how big she is getting!
They also had the kids all color pictures of what they are thankful for and they recorded them saying what they are thankful for...Emma drew a pic of us and said she was thankful for her mom! I am thankful for you, too peanut! That makes all we do worth while!

My lil fashion queen!
If you can't see, Laney is wearing a leotard, tutu, tights and purple socks! I wish you all could see her! She goes through about 10-15 different outfits a day. It's cute, but not fun for mom when it comes to laundry and dressing her in something appropriate for school, church, outside, etc. We think she may be our lil designer. Pray for us and her teen years. Ug!
Happy Birthday to me!
I had a great birthday! Jimmie went to my Ultimate Conditioning class with me, I took a long nap, our dear friends, Janelle, Jeff and the boys, came over for my favorite meal and then Alyssa (from our teen life group in KC) drove in from ACU to surprise me!!! It was so great to see her! Thanks Alyssa! You are awesome! It was a great day!
Emma's new do!
Our lil girl is getting so big! On our way to get her hair trimmed, she decided she wanted it to her shoulders. Mom had a hard time with it, but I had to let go. :) She looks so cute and grown up! I am still hoping she wants to grow it back out. :)
We love you Sarah!
Sarah stopped by to see the girls! She is our babysitter and we all just love her!
Gymnastics In House Meet
The girls had their very first gymnastics meet. It was so sweet to watch them and see the sparkle in their eyes. They were so proud and so were we! Our camera wasn't cooperating in the gym, so most of the pics didn't turn out very well.
Happy Halloween!
Laney was Lumpy from Pooh's Heffelump (or our lil republican) and E was a black cat. We had a great time! I was on trick or treating duty this year for the first time! It was fun! And, Tamorah and Aubri got to join us! So, I got to have some adult conversation while Emma and Laney hung out with their buddy! It was a good night...well until I got food poisoning at about midnight, but that's another story. :)
