WHERE'S DANO

I am Thankful For.......

Desirae: Who is my oldest, thankful for her organizational skills. She keeps our family cemented together (guess that comes from being the oldest) she is very energetic, always doing or making something. She is a wonderful wife and mother of 4. (and she lives to far away)

Brittany: Who falls second in command, she is right there with Desirae in keeping the family together (as much as we can be, when we are spread out.) Thankful for her fun spirited personality, fun to have around. Very concerned about family members. She to is a wonderful wife and mother of 2.

Danette: Third in line or as it stands the Middle Child. Thankful for her easy going personality. She has been my quietest, still is. She has always been the peacemaker. She has always been my most practical child. She is very talented in many ways. She is a wonderful wife and mother of 2 as well. (and she lives to far away.)

Daniel: Fourth in the line up and only BOY. Right now I am very Thankful for the man he is becoming. He as well has a very fun spirited personality, always making people laugh. That is the one thing his sisters hated the most, that when they were mad at him he would make them laugh and then they would be even more mad at him because he made them laugh. Can't wait.... 5 1/2 months til he is home.

Sharise: My fifth and last or in other words my BABY:) I am thankful for her love and concern for me. She knows that I have a hard time with knowing, that dreaded empty nest is coming way to fast and she is always concerned about me. It has been very different for her growing up in a emptier house than the older girls, but she has fared well.

Last but not least, I am thankful for my wonderful husband, who is very patient with me. He has always been the provider for this family so that I could stay home with the kids as they grew and I am thankful for that. He has worked very hard for his family. He is a great DAD! He also has that fun spirited personality (except for when playing games and he is not winning) We have had 32 1/2 great years together and intend on having many many more!!!!!!!!

I LOVE YOU ALL and I pray that you will continue to be patient with me as I continually learn to be a better wife and mother and grandmother which I am in training for right now. (I figure if I don't have the mother thing down I am probably to late.)

Bunnies Bunnies Bunnies

This is our new little visitor that comes
and visits us once and a while. A couple of months ago we had two big bunnies that would stop by our house and see us, we haven't seen them in awhile but now we have this little guy that comes his colors are a mix between the two that used to come around so I think that they must have had little ones. He is so quick that I had to be quick to get a picture of him.

This is for Aubrey

This is Elder Rex he is awesome, he is the one holding the plate of cookies that I sent to him last Valentines day. He will be home sometime in March we will keep in touch.

The Month of October

To start October off we flew to Texas (I know I posted previously about TX) but here are a few more pic. Love these of our little Sambo and cute little Carly. Then I was fixing dinner one night and looked out and saw Grandpa swing on the tire swing with Carly Kodak moment. The bottom pic are of the left over distruction from Hurricane IKE . Keep going there is more to October.

The month of October continued

Here we have Sharise's last Soccer game of the season. As you can see by the sign she was the only senior on the team but she had a great time and she improved alot. We had fun watching her and I for one will miss going to the games next year.

This picture is of FHE pumpkin carving night. We had a lot of fun as you can see by Raylie's face she had the most fun. Painting not only the pumpkin but her face as well.

These pics are of Sharise, Craig, Ron and I in Vegas, Craig's parents gave him two tickets to Phantom and I have been wanting to see it for ever so that is what Ron gave me for my birthday. So the four of us went and we had a great time. The Phantom was awesome.

Sharise and her baby, she cared for her for 3 days. She had to pack her around with her 24/7 and one day she decided to go to a Volley Ball game, and the baby was sleeping soundly until they started the National Anthem and at that point the baby started crying (very normal) so she had to pick it up and try and decide if she was hungry needed a diaper change. She was a little uncomfortable. Can I say that this baby had the most annoying cry.


This last picture is of the graduationg Laurels. The RS made quilts for the girls to welcome them into RS.
