I can't believe it.

We have time.. Time for Thanksgiving, Holidays, traditions, projects.

Time for FHE, scripture study, homework..

and time for CHRISTMAS (yay!)...

time to just be a family.

And I am so happy about it. (first time in years!)

Our Family Home Evening on Monday:

Gratitude FHE. Be Grateful.

1.Realize all the blessings (in your life).

(Even the smallest of one's.)

2. Seek the good in the days

3.enjoy the moment.

4. Give thanks.

The kids wanted to create a winter scene...a Christmas winter scene.

Set in the mountains, with glowing stars and snowflakes in the sky. They wrote on each one to say what they were grateful for.



I hung it up so the kids could always be reminded....

and btw, do you notice something on the floor?


yes, it's Rexy. He is a cute little guy.

now, I am off.
off to Utah..My time. To my fam, to my friends!
I am so excited.

When I get back, the trees go UP!

Thanksgiving will be around the corner!

Love this time of the year.
