This Thanksgiving was a bit different.. It was the first Thanksgiving in my 30 years where I didn't get to see most of family..  Everyone has basically moved away.. it's sad and we missed them dearly! We actually skyped with them and chatted for a bit so that was fun.
Pop came over the night before and we started making Nana's Stuffing.. He taught me how to make it.. I was peeling the carrots and clogged my disposal and Pop took it all apart and told me to try it and water and grossness went everywhere! I screamed and ran away while pop just sat there covered in it! It was so funny. We got it all fixed and cleaned up though. The next morning I got up and finished cooking everything and we had a good meal. I'm getting pretty good at this cooking thing! :) who would have known! Xavy my VERY picky eater and stubborn child wouldn't even join us at the table because everything was "Gross" he said! GRRR....  so he had himself a pizza instead! The nut...  We had a very peaceful day playing games and I ended the night curled up in front of the fireplace admiring my sparkling tree! Happy Thanksgiving!!

Happy Halloween 2010

 EW! Pumpkin guts!

 The finished pumpkins!
 My trick or treaters...
 Aiden as a skeleton guy...
Xav as Michael Jackson... Check the moonwalk out.. :)


Halloween was weird for us this year... It was the first year we were all alone! :( The boys were bummed that their uncle wasn't there to take them around and we missed seeing the baby and wished he could have been with us to trick or treat but we made due without them.... It was a rainy night but that didn't stop the boys! I followed in my car and they went running house to house.. They got tons of candy! Earlier in the day Pop came over with lunch and we carved pumpkins. It was fun..  the boys really get into now and it's fun to have little traditions with them.  Happy Halloween!! :)

Dusk...

My favorite time of day is dusk...  When the sun is setting..  I love to go for drives and listen to music.. It's like therapy for me. :) Thinking about the future and what it has in store for me... The sky was SO beautiful this night..  a pinkish/purplish color.  My fav! :)

ipods in hand... they are ready!

So much has been going on that I haven't blogged about.. I'm not so good at this! My son Xavier turned 8 years old!! I can't believe it! Time has just flown by and now my chubby big baby is a tall (and growing taller by the day) big boy! This year we flew to Arizona to visit AshieB and baby! They moved and left us.. :( so we went down to see their place and celebrate Xav's big day! The boys had a BLAST on the plane. The giggled so loud during take off and landing! They thought they were so cool.. They each had their own roller suitcases. We had so much down there. Eating, swimming and shopping! (oh the mall down there is FAB!! ) I'm so jealous!! It was so fun and so good to see to my sisters Kim and Ash both moved away. Kim and Jake drove down and hung out too. Good times! Happy Birthday, Xav! Your such a fun, good boy!

How old am I?...

Well tomorrow I turn the big 30!! Really?!! Where has the time gone? Am I really this old? I don't feel it? Do I have to act this old??.. ;) I hope not! Cause I don't I think I will ever act my age! lol..

I guess a part of me is sad.. I thought I would be living my happy life by now.. and have everything I want and enjoying every minute of it! But I am going to keep on trucking on..

Hopefully this next year entering my 30's will be MY year!!

Stay tuned..

Cheers to 30 more years! :)

We went to the races at Powder Mountain with Ashie, B and B's parents in August... It was fun to get away and swim and watch B race and eat the good food Margie cooks and laugh and tease Big Zoidian.. The boys always have so much fun and it was the doodle's first race! he did great and his ear muffs were so cute!
