Today- Friday - Dec 08

Well I have been trying to blog for about a month and either the post gets messed up and I give up or I don't have time, or the little monster boy I have at home demands my time and complete face... He holds my face looking at whatever he wants me too. So, today I handed him a spoonful of Peanut butter so I am good for a quick up date.
October, I flew to California to attend my Grama's funeral, she was 93 and did everything still, driving too, she was worried who to vote for so it was a blessing that she went so quickly and without having to vote... (A little funny she would be laughing I promise)
November- We had a wonderful Quarterly Enrichment which turned out just the way I have wanted and hopefully the way the Lord wanted. Our theme was D&C 88:118-119 House of God. Great speakers and food and visiting. I love Relief Society and the friendship that can be felt by anyone if you make an effort.
Also we had a birthday for Becki- we had a mother/daughter retreat and had a blast with 2 friends and their moms, we ate and visited did nails, played games, ate junk and had a great time
Then for Turkey day- Thanksgiving we all had the stomach flu and ate chicken noodle soup, saltines and 7-up for our festive meal. A week later I made the whole thing for Sunday dinner I love leftovers and love turkey sandwiches.
We have had the wide spectrum of weather and have enjoyed all of it- Today it was 7 degrees can you believe it - 7- wowwee it's cold and we finally have snow yeah feels like Christmas too, last week we have 69 degrees and beautiful, all the leafs changed colors and fell in November and now we have twig trees no leafs.
David has a job now at Walmart so we have a small income we are truly grateful for a job right now many are looking and not finding any work and more are being laid off. Times can be scary
Mikal has rolled from one sport to another - Basketball season has started and seems to be happy about it.
Becki loves horseback riding, we'll see if she still likes it in the snow!?!?
Sam is doing well in school and playing in the snow.
December we are just trying to get by and enjoy the holidays, decorations are going up today and presents are purchased, we are all hoping that David will have Christmas Eve off.
We are grateful for our health(now)
We pray for our family, church, friends and country that all may have or try and have a wonderful holiday season. So if the photos don't come atleast I have blogged for the day. I hope to put some of the photos from the above journaling in the future but who knows.
Merry Christmas and Enjoy your families during the holiday season...always
If you have read this do a good deed today!
