Turkey Day!

Happy Thanksgiving!  We started the day out great with the Thanksgiving day run at the rec center.  Lorilee, Jessie, Corrine, Rachel, Becky and me (missing is Dana, sick in bed).  It was a little rainy when we got there but the race turned out beautiful.  We really all did miss Dana as she was our excuse to maybe walk for a minute or two, but alas, we had to run.  Thanks Dana!  
You may think it's a shirt on my head, but Lori's original design of my pilgrim head wear was met with many jealous eyes!
Just two little pilgrims looking for the Mayflower and thankful the scurvey is over!
We are grateful most of all for family, gospel, prophet, uncle justin, work, Christ, food, and home!
We ate too much at Grandma Liston's and again at Grandma Woods.  It was a very fun and full day!

Morning Lesson

My boys are really into reading the back of the cereal boxes.  I'm talking like the nutrition facts.  Weird huh!   I suppose they are just wanting to be real informed.  So they read Vitamin A, Calcium, Iron Zinc....   A few minutes later I hear,

Kyler:  "I think they put metal in this to make it crunchy"

Mom:  "There's no metal in your Apple Jacks!"

Boys:  "Yeah mom, there's iron!"

Mom:  "I pretty sure it's a different kind of iron"

Zach:  "I promise mom, it's just tiny shards of it!"

So, I'm glad I'm just a dumb mom who doesn't know anything and can learn from my wise children.  Thanks kids!

Tagged!

This is my fourth pic from my fourth file.  Layne titled this file "white trash photo studio".  He wanted to take pictures last year and so he got a paint drop cloth, our bench, and his construction flourescent lights.  He developed a whole bunch in black and white and our skin just didn't look right.  I finally made a little comment on how you could see every one of my freckles and then he went and bought this home photo kit with real lamp lighting.  The above picture of the scary cousins show the real pro job,  much better!  Although who could resist this little guy ever!  Ky's smile is always cute!

I tag Becky, Mindy, Lorilee, and Cissy to find 4th file and 4th pic.  Good Luck!

Trick-or-treating!

Zach and cousin Carly had fun going around together.  It was a success!
