Thanksgiving

Three things that I am hugely thankful for this year are my boys! Lamar, Miles, and Nicholas make me so happy and I'm so grateful to have them! I look forward to next Thanksgiving, when all four of us will be in the picture. Lamar was happy because they had a Thanksgiving dinner that included "real turkey and real ham". I'm glad they got a little something special. Happy Thanksgiving!!

Some random pictures

I take Miles to a class at The Little Gym on Tuesday evenings. He has only been to a few classes (we started late in

 the semester, after we got home from California). He really likes it. Anything that involves running around and

being active is right up his alley!

A few more pictures

Here are a few more pictures that Katherine took. wallinphotography.blogspot.com I love them!

Family Pictures

Before Lamar left, we had the opportunity to get family pictures taken. The first time we went up the canyon and had pictures taken with some of Lamar's family. Photographer: Katie Dudley ( kdphotography.com )

A couple days later, my friend Katherine from Wallin Photography (wallinphotography.blogspot.com)
 was able to squeeze us in. I'm so happy with the pictures!! I especially love them now that Lamar is away.

Daddy's Goodnight Story

Lamar had the opportunity to read some children's books on video while he was en route to Afghanistan. He sent the video and the books to us, and I surprised Miles with them tonight. Miles was so excited to see his Daddy on the computer, he loved it. It was the sweetest thing in the world. After the story Miles went to bed hugging his Daddy Doll as usual. Talk about tugging at the ol' heart strings!!

Raking Leaves

We went up to my parent's house the other day to help rake leaves. It was so nice to be outside. Miles had a lot of fun jumping on the leaves in the garbage can to squish them down.
