Blessed

This weekend was filled with all kinds of blessings. First of all, Friday night was scrapbooking at the church. Once a month the ladies in the church get together and scrap from 5 -12. It is always a great night of fun and fellowship. My mom always comes too, so I get to spend the night doing one of my FAVORITE hobbies, and enjoy some of my favorite people, (my mom and sister), plus the ladies of the church. Unfortunately Matthew was on nights this weekend, so Judy and Rex offered to keep Nathan. He had a great time with them, as usual! They are such special people. Have I mentioned we are blessed? Because we are! They did take a few pictures of the night:





































I think they were "trying" to be funny here, but notice that Nathan didn't leave the OU hat on for long!!! He is raised right!

















Way to go Nathan......Hook 'Em Horns!



















































Look Mommy and Daddy....O WHO?????

















Saturday was an extremely busy day. It started off with a family thanksgiving. We headed to Whitehouse to eat with my family. Have I mentioned lately how blessed we are to have ouor family? Because we are! We always take pictures at thanksgiving. Here are a few.

I had to leave a little early because of our homecoming game that was Saturday. We do not have football at our school so we celebrate homecoming during basketball. Did I pick a good school or what? All teams won! Way to go Lady Mustangs and Mustangs!

It was a LONG but FUN day. On Sunday we went to church and had another thanksgiving meal, which Nathan loved.























We had a very long weekend. Sunday night, we were so exhausted. So we put on our pjs early and just played around the house.

  1. That made me cry! We are so blessed...I tend to take it for granted...I just focus so much on what I want that I forget what I have! Thank you for reminding me, I love you! =) You are my best friend too...couldn't make it without you, your support, your honesty, your love, and your encouragement.
