Happy Fall Ya'all!

It's the time of year when we are thankful for the many blessings we have in life. The blessings that we take for granted and the ones that we are mindful of but fail to acknowledge. Then when we gather with family and friends our hearts are full as we look around & are reminded of these very blessings. It's in the smiles and hugs, and the joyful laugh of the the long awaited child, it's in the reminiscing of so many Turkey days past. It's in the unbuttoning of the pants because we had plenty to eat, it's in the smells of home, the rememberance of those who are no longer w/us but left recipes and traditions for us to carry on. It's around the table, in the dirty dishes and the extra special love and care that went into the meal. It's in the health that we have and the homes that we share. And the biggest blessing is that "God so loved the World, that he gave his only begotten Son", and he loves us enough to entrust us with all that we have, family and all! My list of Thanks is a long one so I am going to share this one extra special thanks with you all: This Thanksgiving we are especially thankful for God's provision for us over these last 6 mo. and for his provision of NEW EMPLOYMENT for Erik!! That's right!! Our prayers have at long last been answered. Erik will be working for a local Landscaping Co. here in Petaluma. He will start his new job on Dec. 1st. YAHHHHHHHOOOO YIPEEEEE...WOOOHOO AND ALL THAT JAZZ!! My boys have been sick the past few days with this ucky flu bug...yesterday Bryce was perking up and feeling better so I took him outside and got some new photos...seems like it's been forever since I took his picture. Here's some more of what I am sooooooooooooo very thankful for...Bryce.

Last Sunday Bryce was the only one in Nursery so Judy took him on a nature walk and he did his first little nature collage. Too cool huh? Uh gee why haven't I thought of that? Maybe cause Judy has 4 boys? Any way they had fun and I love this little keep sake :)
