One Year Ago Today .....

A few days before thanksgiving I would like to post publicly how Thankful I am for all the things I am blessed with. Happy healthy kids, A handsome smart affectionate hubby, an adorable dog, my testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, my family and friends, and on my mind a lot today, I am thankful for my warm safe home. Last year on this day Egan started a fire in his room early in the morning and within minutes we were homeless.

Special Thanks:

Thank You to the smoke detector for working so well and saving our lives.

Thank You to to my hero hubby we were all safe and prepared.

Thank You for our ward family who helped us with our immediate need and future needs as well with furniture clothing and food!

Thank You Heavenly Father for the lessons we've learned, and the perspective we gained.

Happy Thanksgiving to all! 



Character Comparison

My kids can be so animated especially when I take pictures, that they often remind me of characters in children's shows.

 

Evelyn often reminds me of Red from Fraggle rock, those big eyes and wild puffy hair. Gotta love it.

 Ever since Egan was a baby he's made me think of Curious George.. Sweet and sensitive with that round face button nose and beautiful brown eyes.

This was just for fun... he he he

Primary Program

Life has been so busy, and it keeps getting busier. Time has just flown by... So here I am doing catch-up on the blog.

The kids were involved in our Sunday primary program and both said their parts and sang well. Egan especially loved the song "Follow The Prophet" He was the most exuberant singing that one. Everyone laughed and enjoyed the show. I promised myself months ago that I would make Evelyn a new dress and Egan a new tie for the occasion.. and just like me I waited and procrastinated until the last minute... literally. I was busy sewing the Saturday night before the program. Evelyn LOVES her new red dress with white lining and lace. Egan's tie has road signs on it and he has worn it every Sunday since. Thanks to Aunt Dawn for the material for both the dress and the tie!
