Merry Christmas to me...

Oh, I have had many bad thoughts lately. Mostly about wishing I was a young kid again and getting Lots of presents. And usually, I'm pretty good, I only want a couple of things- but there's so many fun things to get right now, it's a little hard for me. For some crazy reason, I have a wish list that is getting bigger and bigger. I keep thinking up things that I would really love...hmmm, I could probably end up with a few more on my list- My daughter sings a song called Merry Christmas to me, and I think I have it stuck in my head and it won't leave causing this predicament. I want a cellular phone, a shiny trombone, a blah, blah, blah, blah- Merry Christmas to me!!! Don't want pajamas, don't want a toy I have to share, oh Santa PROMISE, don't bring me socks or underwear- (ok, maybe from Marshall) Anyways hope that I get a couple of my items, but we might have to drag Christmas out a few months longer.... but that would be fine for me (-:

Lots to be thankful for...

For some of you that don't know, Marshall's dad is living with cancer, we are so thankful that we had one more Thanksgiving with grandpa!!! Long Live Grandpa Dave

I'm thankful for an eternal companion that I couldn't live without. He makes me happy, makes me smile, makes me crazy, and has a very tender heart. I am thankful Marshall, for all that you do!

Thankful for those big brown eyes who melt your heart with her peaceful spirit and "hugs and kisses store"

I'm thankful for a wonderful family, for amazing food, and to celebrate together. It was a ton of fun!!!!

Thankful for lots of cousins, braces, new great nieces to squish, and building gingerbread houses and making tons of sugary messes!

Thankful for Snow Angels, NAPS, and the return of ginormous fish that have returned to Big

Springs in Island Park.

Thankful for self reflection in the woods, Heidi's makeup, and cutting down trees on ATV's with the family!
