Sunday Gratitude

I am thankful...

1. for neighbors who can keep their wits around blood when you can't.

2. Josie only hurt her head bad enough to need TWO staples.

3. DeeKen was there to help me and to go get help in case I fainted.

4. for parents who live close enough to come and support me when I have to take my baby to get staples.

5. Micah's desire to be a part of Deer Hunt Weekend. Which translates into girls only!

6. Noah's desire to befriend the new kid. Even if the new kid doesn't realize how cool that is.

7. John has been home when most scarey, bloody, things have happened to our kids.

8. for angels who kept me from fainting when Josie was bleeding all over...when John wasn't home.

9. primary programs. I love to hear kids sing gospel truths!

10. Fall weather. Yummy food accompanies this season. I LOVE it! but my waist doesn't!

Family pictures 2011

This year was hard for me. I wanted these pics to be just a certain way, but things happen. Photographers can't make it, you can't find shoes, your daughter breaks her head band...Argh, I got so frustrated. I had thoughts like, maybe a train is going to hit us and the Lord is trying to let me know by not making it possible to get there. But life happens, and all lived who went to the photo shoot with us. The family pictures were taken by my niece. Who has no formal training but tried her best. Very frustrating to try to set something up, but not really be able to see what the final product looks like till your done. You have this picture in your head, and it doesn't quite turn out! OH well, we still got some nice pictures! Enjoy!
