This week we will, spend time with Family, eat lots and eat some more, spend time with the kids, do some Christmas shopping, go to a Soccer game, maybe a movie and I'm even betting we will have out tree up by the end of the week! I'm looking forward to a GREAT Week! I am truly so blessed and have alot to be grateful for! Here are a few pictures of what I am most thankful for:

all people-which I think matters most-the people in your life!! Happy thanksgiving!

Matthew is 14-YIKES

On September 9th Matthew turned 14-scary huh?? For Matthew's Birthday he invited his friend over for a sleepover and they played video games! Not my idea of fun-but that is his idea of a great time! I feel so lucky and blessed to be his mom-he is a great young man! Matthew is in the 8th grade this year and it has so far been a tough year! He started at a new school and has had to make new friends and I think he has felt kinda lost! I really admire him-he is courageous. I think it takes a lot of courage for kids his age (junior High) to go out and experience the world-that is not so great right now! He works VERY hard at everything he dose and for the most part keeps good grades. I just wish he could keep his attitude in check-I don't think that happens until they move out!! LOL Matthew enjoys baseball, basketball, X-Box, Hanging out with friends, Young Men's.  I have to say that his most favorite thing is the Outdoors. Matthew is always ready to go camping, fishing, hiking, 4-wheeling (especially if he is the driver) and hunting! He enjoys life and I am so proud of him! Happy Birthday Matthew!

Mckay is 11

Happy Birthday to my McKay! I sure love this boy! Mckay turned 11 on September 10-he had a good Birthday. He had a late night with a few of his friends-he invited 6-Yikes! He is not so social so I was actually really happy that he wanted to invite a few kids over. They all came over and we had pizza and Jake loaded them all up and took them to the park and they played football for a few hours. Then they came home and watched a Bigfoot show! If you know McKay he loves bigfoot and totally believes there is one! We are always teasing him  about that-his favorite show is  "Finding Bigfoot"! He is so funny and I think very special! Mckay loves almost any sport but his two favorites are Soccer and Basketball. He also really enjoys school and likes to learn and discover just about anything! He loves his brothers-especially Marcus most of the time they are best friends! I am thankful to him for being such a good brother! He has also come out of his shell a little and is not as shy as he used to be. He still likes Legos, X-Box, Making Origami's, Drawing, and he really enjoys the outdoors-especially a good hike! (this kid can hike and hike) We love you Mckay!

Soccer 2012

Mckay played a great season of soccer! He LOVES soccer-can't get enough of it! He has been playing/practicing with Nebo United Club Soccer team for the last year and has really had a fun time. He loves his teammates and it has been so fun to watch all of them learn and grow together. Mckay's team Brazil played a good season each game they got better and better. Overall they took 4th-putting them in a good spot for the Spring Tournment. They will be In B (they have A B C) and will be the top spot in B-pretty exciting! On there last game they played a team from Orem that was undeafeted all season-this team REALLY wanted a "perfect" season. Team Brazil played there best game ever and tied the number one team!! We were all so excited! Mckay mostly plays Defender and occasionally he is a forward- he has even scored a few goals.  I am so thankful for Mckay's opportunity to play with this team and the chance to learn more about soccer!
