Thanksgiving

Well here we are again at another Thanksgiving. Time for Turkey, family, friends, and food. This year we are blessed to be thankful for the little resident in my belly. Next year just imagine how blessed we will be. This past year brought us many happy times. Lovey yet crazy family vacations, time spent with friends, good health, and lots of love. I am blessed to have all of you in my life. Each one of you holds a special place and meaning for me. Thank you for that.

Luke at this time all I can say is thank you putting up with me, and venturing on this long journey with me. I love you.


Ella you are the center of my world. I can not wait to see you evolve into a wonderful big sister in the next year. You have so much to offer. I love you.



Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Updates

Well I know that I have not been very good at the updates. This will update on everything since Disney. Disney will come at a later date. I know promises promises.

Well Ella had a check up at the Dentist. If you remember the last one she screamed and yelled and vomited all over the room. This one went much better. I had a friend of mine take her and so it was a fresh face to deal with her. She did very well. Hopefully in May it will go as well.

We did carve pumpkins. Uncle Howard came through again this year with a really big pumpkin. We had a good time carving it. I am sure that my daughter is the only kid who has to wear rubber gloves to carve a pumpkin. My mom did carve a really cool one with Cinderella on it. However I am still trying to figure out how to get the pictures off of the new camera. I am horribly challenged when it comes to technology.

Now on the Halloween. Ella dressed up as Sleeping Beauty, I know what a big surprise. She trick or treated at school in the morning and then at night. She had a lot of fun, but liked handing out the candy better.Election Day. Well to tell this story I have to reveal who I voted for, not up for discussion, but the story is well worth it. So I take Ella with me. She had been very interested in the voting thing. We get in the booth and I explain who the people are and what the jobs are. Yes, we were in there for a long time. I am sure everyone outside was not happy with us. Ella started to pull levers and I told her that she had to wait because she was pulling levers for the people that I did not want to vote for. So I told her to pull this lever she asks who it is for. I tell her John McCain. She then asks who the other lever is for and I tell her Barack Obama. Then we finish voting. I open the curtain and not in her loudest voice, but not the quietest she say "WE DON'T WANT NO BOOMA" OMG I think I am going to die. I explain to her again that we do not discuss who we vote for and that it is private. I was so embarrassed.

That is it for now. I will post again soon with the rest of the update.
