Thankfull at Thanksgiving!

We had the pleasure this year to host Thanksgiving at our house. You may think we are weird but we LOVE to host at our house. Nate and I both love to get our house ready and decorate the table settings. I wished I would have taken pictures but I forgot, but our tables were pretty fantastic if I do say so my self! We had Nate's Sister, her hubby, Nate's brother, and my sister and her kids over for the big feast. Nate parents where supposed to come but his dad got sick so they weren't able to join us ( you where missed) Nate made an AMAZING turkey that he worked so hard on. He brimmed it for 24 hours before cooking it and it made it so juicy and delicious! While I made the stuffing, potatoes, gravy, and green bean casserole. Jo Dawn (Nate's sister) made the jello pudding, and their family tradition dish oyster casserole. I have yet to have tasted this dish in the 8 years that Nate and I have been together LOL. I was grateful to be surrounded by family. I am so extremely happy my sister was able to come out and spend a few days out here with me, I love her and she is my best friend! A few things I am thankful for in no particular order:

1. My family (my immediate and extended)
2. Our health
3. The Lord and his unconditional love for me!
4. The gospel
5.My home, and neighbors that surround us!
6.My beautiful kids
7. Our friends
8. laughter
9. Trials (they always make you stronger)
10. A warm bed to sleep in.

TWILIGHT!!!

I keep asking my self if it is weird for a 26 year old to be this interested in a book about vampires who sparkle and HOT boys who turn into werewolves!??!?! I have NEVER read a whole book front to back until i was introduced into the Twilight series! I absolutely loved all the book and have LOVED the movies! The week before New Moon came out my Mary Kay unit put together a party called Bella's birthday bash we brought clients and did Bella Makeovers on then and we had a Edward and Jacob look alike that you could get pictures with. It was lots of fun and I took my cute nieces Destiny and Kylie with me and they were in Heaven!! They thought they were so cool and I had to tell them a few time that they weren't meeting the REAL Edward. LOL The night was a blast.
So the next weekend came and I was so jealous that EVERYONE was going to see the new movie BUT me! I got a call Friday morning from Tiana saying I wasn't going to have the boys that day so in the spure of the moment I called my friend Jana and we went to see if we could get tickets and we DID :) we went to the show and I LOVED it! i am so excited to read the books again and wait for movie # 3 to come out! I know what you are all thinking I am such a nerd, but I don't care I LOVE TWILIGHT! LOL
