Really?! Wasn't it just Christmas last week?
Haven't posted in awhile. I had all kinds of things I wanted to write about, but I didn't have time and now I can't remember what most of them were. They weren't "newsy" things, just stuff I was thinking about at the time. But, my brain has a short attention span and they are gone for now.
So, now it's November (egads) and it's Thanksgiving month. I'm gonna make a goal to post every day about something I'm grateful for. Think I can remember to keep it up? I guess we'll find out. It won't be in any particular order. Just as I think of them.
Except for this one, I think the number one thing I'm thankful for is Sam. Our 17th anniversary was a few weeks ago. Time is a funny thing. Sometimes it seems like just yesterday that we were getting married, other times I can barely remember life before Sam....like it was in some far distant past. I'm a lucky girl, though, they don't come any better. He spoils me rotten, tells me I'm beautiful (he needs glasses), works hard even though he hates it, is an awesome dad to our kids, and is an all around good guy. Everyone loves Sam, especially little people. I'm sure he thinks I"m certifiable most of the time, but he puts up with me and I love him. This is an old pic of him....he's the cutie on the right.....taken in Italy when he was a missionary.
We didn't get to do much for our anniversary. Partly because we're still unemployed. But, also, it was on a Sunday and we got a visit from my niece Melissa and her family that weekend. Which was a lot of fun. She lives in Florida, so I don't get to see her often enough, and she has such a sweet little family. When Melissa was a little girl, I was single and only had 3 or 4 nieces and nephews, so she's one I really remember as a little kid. Her Avry (6?) is a clone of her mom at that age, and it just makes me smile to watch her. She has an adorable older brother and baby sister, too. They had some great friends with them, and it made for an enjoyable day.

Ahh shucks! I'm sad i didn't know it was your anniversary! you should have said something! We would have brought more - or come on a different day or taken Megan someplace so you guys could have a day. But still glad you let us come. It was awesome!
Nah, Meesa, it was perfect. We had fun seeing you guys. I just can't believe that we didn't take a picture. Isn't that weird?
Well, for that you would need both a camera and a person who wouldn't mind taking pictures.
I know and WHERE in the heck am I gonna find THAT?!
