Grateful, Thankful, and All of the Above

Time is FLyING by.  I can't believe

November has basically come and gone:(

 

Guess I need to take Haddie's advice...

My children continue to BeG and PLeaD

for my mother to make them

pumpkin spice cakes...they LOVE them!!!

I finally decided to learn to make them myself...

not because my mother doesn't make

them because she absolutely AMAZES

me how she surprises the kids with

the cakes so often, BUT I wanted to

have something to share with

others during this season of

feeling so grateful!!!!!!

I had two VERY special helpers!!!

 I had to start off with some practice

cakes (okay, maybe more than

once if I'm being truthful).  Everytime we

 made the cakes, we pretended

we were on a cooking show!!!;)

Sweet Girl was my ultimate tester.

She thinks mine have turned out

"pretty good"...

but NOT as good as Grandmother's;(

 I am loving Walker's teachers so much

and I wanted to do something special

for them at Thanksgiving...but he has

SEVEN teachers now so it's hard!!!

My favorite part of the little gift of love

was Walker signing each card

with "Love, Walker"......

I had fun preparing these though.

(on my cooking show of course;)!!!)

Grateful, thankful and alllll of the above

doesn't even come close to explaining

how I feel about Janice and Adrienne.

They love my boy and he loves them.

It's such a wonderful feeling to drop

him off and KNOW that he is going

to be LOVED loved and LoVED some more...

even if he wears his 'piderman 'jama

shirt everyday;)

 He learns so much over there...

like how to love and be buddies!!!

Plus they take him to fun places!!!

Janice and Adrienne...

I thank my God every time I remember you.

And look what my Huddy made at

Janice's for Thanksgiving!!!!!!!

 

 Troy's mom had to have hip surgery:(

On the day of her surgery, I found

this in Hadlee's folder.  She had made

this AT school with nobody telling her to

on the day of the surgery. 

Sweet, sweet girl...

Mamaw is loved:)

I couldn't be more thankful

for this sweet, precious girl...

a little bit of Heaven on earth!

 Look who "broke his arm"...ha!

Obviously Jonah is with us a lot!!!;)

 Speaking of Big Jo, I love picking up

these two crazy guys from school everyday. 

They CRaCK me up with the things

they tell me about their days!!!

Thankful for all the silly boys in our life!

Busy but Blessed...

and pretending to be drinking a

 Starbucks for my friends;)

So thankful I'm always protected, too;)

I am grateful & thankful for all of the above and MORE!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!
