Happy Thanksgiving!!

As many of you know I am not a big Halloween person. I love to decorate my house with cute pumpkins but I just really don't like taking the kids trick or treating. We were invited over by the Biglers to go to our old stomping grounds for Halloween. We did have fun seeing old neighbors. I was really sad though to see that our old street was dark and quiet. Nobody was out doing a block party like we had in the past. We were truly blessed to live on that street and oh, the fun times we had. Well, now that Halloween is over, we can move onto Thanksgiving. I love the season of fall & winter. Christmas is right around the corner!! That is my favorite holiday ever!! I have really been thinking about my Grandma Elda lately. We went to visit her on Thursday and again on Saturday. She still has her humor. We laughed with her and had a good time. She is just so weak and fragile. I told Jonna the other day that I am not sure that I am ready for my last grandparent to pass away. I can't quite grasp my mind around the fact that at some point my mom will become the great-grandma and then that will make our generation the grandparents. Oh, my that is so scary! I do know one thing: I was born of goodly parents who raised me in the Gospel. They too were born of goodly parents. I am so grateful for my heritage and the ancestors that I have. I am thankful for their sacrifice so that I can raise my children in a free country. I love my family and I am thankful for what the Lord has blessed me with. I love my Savior. May we all try and remember those things we are Thankful for this Thanksgiving Season :0)
