Thanksgiving

Our traditional Indian Headresses this year. The kids decorated them all by themselves.

 They also made paper plate turkeys.

 About a week before we celebrated Thanksgiving we got our thankful tree up on our wall. It is still there today even though we are working on our thankful Christmas tree now.

 Derek took 4 days off work for an early Thanksgiving since he knew he would have to work on Thanksgiving no matter what. We were able to put up Christmas lights over the weekend and are so excited we have a house to decorate. Next year we will go big or go back inside because we can't wait to add TONS of lights to our house!

 We celebrated Thanksgiving the Saturday before the real holiday. We had a poo poo platter of yummy food all day long while the turkey baked.

 It was a lot of fun getting to celebrate with our family and be thankful that we all have each other. We miss our family far away and it was just a little sad not celebrating on the day of, but we are just thankful to have each other and are so thankful for Derek and all the hard work he does for our family. We are grateful we could celebrate with Dad and have this time together. This year has really taught us to be grateful for what we have NOW. And right now we have each other and I am writing this on here, IT'S PRETTY DARN GOOD!

This family of mine makes me so happy and so grateful each day that I get to call them mine. 

LOVE THESE AMAZING PEOPLE AT THIS TABLE!

They are amazing at what they are accomplishing in this life!
