So this month has been flying by for me. Spencer came home the other day and said: "Guess how many weeks until Christmas? 6!" Now it is even shorter-can you believe we only have 4 more weeks until Christmas?! This month Cameron finished his swim lessons,and is excited to start them again in the spring. Spencer has started 1st grade basketball, and he loves it! He's actually pretty good. They started games the week before Thanksgiving break, and he made the first basket! The games are hilarious to watch as the kids fight each other for the ball, or forget which way they're basket is, or forget to dribble.. You just have to laugh. The last game there were some bigger kids on it and it got pretty physical. Spencer got a head in the face- and a new loose tooth. So hopefully he will be missing one before Christmas:) It is exciting to see him learn and understand more. He is doing great, and I love his attitude after. He kept telling the kids on the other team how awesome their shots were and that they were really good. :) Scott has come home and left and is home again. And it is so nice to have him here. The kids really have fun with him. Spencer even gave up playing with a kid when he asked if he wanted to come over and play with him and his dad, because his dad was awesome and fun to play with, and the kid didn't want to. Now I understand that no one wants to play with someones Dad, but I love that Spencer feels that way about his Dad.
This last week has been busy and fun. My family came up for Thanksgiving and we had fun shopping, making nativity people, apple turkeys, and tile gifts for friends and neighbors. Karianne brought her Wii, and Scott and my Dad spent long hours perfecting their golf game. Dinner was great and I am glad the leftovers are almost gone. Thanks for coming you guys!
So this month we made a grateful tree to remember and see the things for which we are grateful for. Here is the list our family came up with:
We are grateful for each other
We are grateful for medicine and doctors
We are grateful for our home
We are grateful for our families
We are grateful for our foxhole
We are grateful for snow
We are grateful for food
We are grateful for our prophet
We are grateful for our toys, and many more.......
We are so grateful for all the many things we have been given this year. And are so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who blesses us daily. We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! And that everyone is getting ready for Christmas!?
