Top Five

Happy Thanksgiving! I am so grateful for the many blessing that I have in my life. I love this time of year that we can truly remember all the things that we are grateful for. Thanksgiving has always been a fun time of year for me because not only is it Thanksgiving, but my birthday usually falls around Thanksgiving too. My Brother's birthday is the day after mine so we usually spend the whole week partying and having fun. People often ask if I like having a birthday around another holiday so to answer the question I have come up with the following:

Top Five Reasons to Have your Birthday around Thanksgiving...

5. Who doesn't want to stuff their face for days and days with Thanksgiving feast, then birthday meals, pies, ice cream, more pie, more ice cream, more thanksgiving feast....follow the pattern several times throughout the weekend.
4. Everyone is in the Partying mood.
3. Everyone is around to Party with you.
2.You can pack up and leave for a few days to go to Fiesta Texas on your birthday and enjoy getting sick on all the rides after you have eaten for hours on end. (refer to #5)
1. You can sit on Santa's lap while at Fiesta Texas and tell him all the things that you want for Christmas that you didn't get for your birthday.

So the answer is YES I love having my birthday around Thanksgiving. We had a great weekend and I can't wait to party again for Christmas!

Adelyn told Santa she wanted a makeover for Christmas. What child even knows what a makeover is?

Octoberishness

We had a fantastic October! It flew by with all the fun events we had going on! We went to Utah for conference and to visit family, spent some time at the Lexington in Corpus, went to a pumpkin patch, and of course carved pumpkins and trick or treated! Can't wait to see what November is like!
