Artsy Derek!

We had paper table cloths for Thanksgiving dinner. Look what my nephew Derek drew while he ate. Pretty amazing huh? From the left...Thanksgiving, Christmas, Halloween, and on the top you've got a Turkey and Derek himself. :)

Poor doggie!

It's plain mean what Jacob does to Rusty. This is "what Rusty gets when he barks" last Saturday. Poor doggie. I guess it's a good thing he loves Jacob unconditionally!

Thankful for...

FAMILIES. Sometimes I think I forget how wonderful it is to have a built in network of friends, co-workers, soul mates, etc. The world doesn't share this view but when someone close to you passes away it makes you think. You think about the person, their family, all of the warm memories, what they meant to you, and then you realize it ends. Well kind of. I believe there is an amazing happy reunion happening after our life here on earth full of brothers, sisters, aunts, and uncles, friends, mom and dad, etc. My prayers this Thanksgiving will be gratitude to be surrounded by most of my family and some dear friends. And gratitude to know that it won't end after this life. There will be one big reunion and it will be all about FAMILIES!

Enjoy the feast this week!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. Hope you are surrounded by
lots of good food, good people, and good love. We love you!

HP #7 Part 1 continued

I thought the movie was pretty good. Had to cover my eyes a couple of times...no there wasn't as much "skin" as I had heard. There were spiders and snakes that I really didn't want to dream about tonight. Yikes!! Enjoy the show all you Harry Potter fans. I'm going to bed and it's only 10:05pm. Tee, hee, hee. :)

Trumping Mater on HP #7 Part 1

I get to go and see the new Harry Potter film TONIGHT at 6:30! I didn't think I could go since it's my day with the grand kids but Matt can come home a little early. Yeah! Thanks Matt for letting me go to a show with two friends from the ward. I'm giggling inside that I get to go do this...mostly that I get to spend some time with two neat ladies. I'll let you know what I think Mater. :)

Mojo and Facebook

Mojo for Mater! Today is "unfriend" day on Facebook. Sounds kind of mean to just axe someone from your contacts. The DJ's on the radio had a list of reasons why you might want to do it. Here are a few of them...the person comments on EVERY one of your comments, they only post pictures, they only talk about their kids (what wrong with those two???), they only post their game status, you only befriended them in the first place because they said they knew you when you were in Jr. High together, etc. I have been thinking a lot about Facebook lately and am seriously thinking that I might "unfriend" myself. Jacob already did it, Mark's company strongly suggests they don't get an account with Facebook, and Kevin says he's over it and wants out too. So in case I suddenly drop off the planet Facebook I'm not gone. I'm here and for those of you that want to stay in touch please do. Are you satisfied Mater? :)
