Happy Thanksgiving!

Well, I thought I'd write a note today since my parents are coming into town tomorrow and then my sister and her family on Thursday. I assume I'll be so busy visiting that I won't have much time to write. Just wanted to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you are able to spend the day with family and friends. Since it's a time to be thankful for what we have I suppose I'll write a few things I'm thankful for.

1. My husband, Matt! He has been so supportive of me and I love him dearly!

2. My kids - Abby & Lucy! Even though today was a tougher day, I still love them so much and they bring me so much joy.

3. My family. My parents, siblings, nephews/nieces, my in-laws, my sisters-n-laws and their families. It's so great to have them in my life - and in my children's lives!

4. The Gospel. Without it I don't know where I would be in my life. I'm sure it wouldn't be good.

5. My friends. There are really too many to even list out. I am grateful for the many friendships on many levels. From my best friend to my acquaintances.

I suppose I could go on forever, but I won't. Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend!

P.S. Basement

Our basement is finally finished and livable! We got carpet on Saturday. We've moved a lot down there - including all the toys!! It's great to have more room in our home. :) We love it!

'Tis the Season!!

For having parties! I'm hosting a Sole Desires (shoes) and Scentsy (wickless candles) open house at my home on December 4th from 6:30-8:30 pm. Bring your kids to play downstairs while we visit! I'll have some light refreshments. Remember to bring a friend!! Let me know if you need my address! I hope to see you there (unless you live outside of Utah - then maybe I'll forgive you for not coming! ha ha). Here's the websites: www.scentsy.com/sylviasharp & www.shoeparty.com (Bianca's selection). If you can't make it, but want to order something just let me know and I'll get it to you! :)

Twilight!

I went with my mother-in-law, Angi, Joni, & Christina to see Twilight today. All I can say is WOW! I loved it. I actually liked Edward, I wasn't so sure about him at first. It was really good. I'm going to get my book out and re-read it. (I didn't want to before I saw the movie). Anyway, if you haven't seen the movie - go see it! If you haven't read the book - read it! I will say that you do get so much more from the book, more of what Bella is thinking and feeling. That's why I want to read it again. Anyways - it was a fun girls day out. Matt stayed home with Abby and Lucy! He is such a great dad. I couldn't believe it - he even cleaned the downstairs for me!! I'm lucky to have him! :)
