Totally Thankful

We got the best surprise ever Thanksgiving day with snow straight from when we woke up until late into the afternoon... What a relaxing day to just have the fireplace going and watch the snow fall.  God is good and has given us so much to be thankful for. With Chris at work for his 10th straight day, my mom brought over lunch and games to play to hang out with me and the boys.  The hit of course was this turkey cake, who has cake on Thanksgiving? My boys, because they are spoiled!  The bakery at my mom's work always makes special cakes, and so my mom is a sucker for buying them and letting my boys get their fill of cake. 

We had a big Thanksgiving feast out at Price's that evening, and there was lots of  "tackle time" and family time.  Lots of leftovers so we will be having Thanksgiving all weekend!  The boys have a blast at Papa and Memi's house, it is nonstop fun, and lots to do. We are just waiting for their cousin to get on the move, but for now he is so sweet to hold because he is such a good boy!  Memi made some great pies, with some funny stories behind them too...Thanks for a great evening Price Family! 

Pumpkin can fall asleep anywhere, and Brodes was just chillin after a long day of Thanksgiving....

Every time I hear this song on the radio, it makes me smile and pray.  So incredibly thankful for the three healthy boys God has blessed us with.  Love takes on a whole new meaning being a mom to these boys.  I love all my boys, the love of my life and husband of 6 1/2 years, Chris, my wild and crazy man, Crew Charles, my sweet and relentless go getter Brody Jeffrey, and my loud, 'high maitenance', super quick, mama's boy, Kyler Christopher...

Thank you Jesus!

It was fantastic to wake up to all that snow...I just wish it would have stayed. Oh well, back to work as usual tomorrow. Fingers crossed for a white Christmas too.
