A fantastic thanksgiving.

Words cannot express how mucho fun thanksgiving was. The cheshire family drove up and we had so much fun together. A yummy brined turkey, fed the missionaries. Bb and soccer at the churchouse with the missionaries and Cheshire family. Games, consequences, ice cream and ketchup! Tya cleaning and organizing my house. Lol. So cute! Rocket launches, bowling, movies, Black Friday deals, hobby lobby crafts, phase ten, life board games. Delicious meals, turkey leftovers, Christmas tree helpers, pictures. Oh boy. So much fun. I love them all so much. First time in six years we had any family visit us on the holidays. We miss our families. Hope your thanksgiving was filled with lovely memories and family love time! Toodles!

A glorious day

Soooooo, today I finally beat Steve at monopoly. I have not beaten him ever in monopoly. He always steps up his game and then he smears me. (With a lot of luck) he seems to always win any game that involves a manly game theme. Risk, Monopoly, etc. I always win with scrabble, phase ten, UNO, it is a little strange but that is how the dice rolls! Ha ha. Hopefully he still will love me even though I SMEARED him in Monopoly! Beat him, hung him up by his toenails, took him to town, etc. Now we get to game loser makeup. The best part of winning!!!

Another week.

Whew. Every week goes so fast. Trevor made the a team at the junior high basketball. We are very proud of him. He gets up at 5 am and Steve drives him to practice at 6 am. I leave at 7;15 and am very thankful that Steve can take him to school. His first game is next week. He is very excited to Be on the top team. Trent has enrolled in a Microsoft IT class and is learning a ton about iMac stations and itip stations and IBM computers. The teacher his is interning for, is teaching him so much. He gets credit and if he works extra hard he can get an extra credit. We were updating his résumé and every little bit of experience helps. Today the principle asked me to sub in the plus classroom and the JAG classroom. WOW. I could never work with those kids every day. Exhausting. The day went smooth until 4th period. There were twenty two of them. Had to call some assistant principals in to take some boys away. Very happy it is the three day weekend. I have some Christmas project crafts to send back at thanksgiving with my sister. So it is even going to be a busier thanksgiving. I even got my visiting teaching done already for nov. yahoo! Feels great! Well toodles.
