Thankful


Wow, it's been awhile since I posted anything. Sorry, but with the move, things have been crazy. We are into our new house and getting things settled. Although our circumstances haven't been the best, we are so thankful to God for his goodness. We have a fireplace now, and we've both wanted that for a long time! The kids rooms are larger and we have great carpet/tile/wood flooring throughout. We just started decorating for Christmas and the loft area with the log banister looks awesome with lights and garland.




We had Jill, Matt, Mikayla and Zane up here for Thanksgiving. They were here for several days and we just had a blast! We talked and reminisced, played games, ate, and ate some more.




Friday night we went to Nisswa to see them light up the town and watch the fireworks. It was a nice night, not even too chilly. We drank hot chocolate and had some hot dogs. The kids each talked to Santa. It was a nice evening.









Backing up a bit, Shelby celebrated her birthday in Minneapolis this year. She was a flower girl in her cousin's wedding. She had a great time! Her birthday was on Friday and she had rehearsal dinner that night. Rachael and Wes made the evening special for her. They had a birthday cake at the rehearsal supper for her. Her hair was all fixed up at a salon and she had a beautiful dress! Her ninth birthday will be one of her favorites!







Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We are so thankful for friends and family, God and his goodness, a roof over our heads and food in our bellies.



Love to you all!
