Also, if you love the photos she is available to take your pictures too!
Thanks, Sara! You are a great photographer and I actually had fun having my picture taken!

Thanksgiving Recap

We had a great Thanksgiving Day...spending the afternoon at my parents and heading over to Keith's grandparents house for the evening.

Seth had a great first Thanksgiving...he napped all through the dinner...oh well next year he will get to sample the food! Sara took some great photos of Seth in honor of turning eight months tomorrow.

We also took a fun video of Seth giggling and learning how to beat up his sisters.

I also took a family picture for Mom and Dad to use with their Christmas cards this year...one of the blooper shots!

So Much To Share...

To start off...we are still waiting on the baby my parents are supposed to get. I will share pics and info as soon as they come.

Now for news...back in April I had one this scrapbook blog contest and I was to receive a package of scrapbook supplies as my prize...I waited and waited and nothing came...so I eventually emailed them to see what was up and after giving them my address the package was on its way. It came on Friday but I had already left for Kalla's so when I got home today there was a huge box and inside were the below goodies!

This is an awesome caddy tool that I have wanted since Christmas...and I got it free...not the color I would have chosen...but still great!

LETTERS--my favorite...stickers, chipboard, punch-outs...FABALOUS!

Paper...paper...paper...never enough!Embellishments of all kinds...new ideas and so excited!

Had a lot of fun spending time with Kalla and family at her party this weekend.

Zach, Sara, and I drove up on Friday night after I got off work...quite an adventure...one of the best parts was when Zach had to climb into the trunk through the backseat...Sara and I were dying laughing!


It was fun to see my cousins too...Spencer is now 18 and an adult...scary! Taylor is a gorgeous 14 year old.

It was fun to see Kalla and Chris and get to spend time with them before they become a Mom and Dad!

This Weekend...

...was super cool! Sara graduated high school on Saturday and it was weird to think that that was me four years ago. I was feeling very old! I am so proud of Sara and I know that college is going to be a great opportunity for her. She is going to be a great interior designer...and it just a few short years she will be done with school and make her way into the world! And with Sara graduating it got us to thinking that in four years it will be Zach graduating from high school...that thought makes me feel very old!
Kalla was also in town and it was so fun to see her for the weekend. On Saturday morning, Kalla and I went and got pedicure together...a very fun and relaxing time. We just got to talk and share things...having her here always makes me see how much I miss not having the opportunity to see her on a regular basis...but I also know she misses Chris a lot when she is here.
So the weekend was an overall hit...very busy but good times!

Sisters

In the past year I have seen my relationship with each of my sisters change drastically (for the good) and I am glad to say that they are my two best friends and I would be lost without them! We've faced trials together and apart...but have always been there. We have lived apart...probably one of the most difficult times...we have lost a huge part of our family and learned how to survive...we are adding to our family...we are learning to love each other even when we may not agree...and we do it all as sisters!
