So much to be thankful for

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We had dinner at my brothers house and when we arrived we were greeted by my little brother who drove with his family from Texas to surprise us all. It was so awesome for all of us to be together, we even had both my Grandmas here. The only problem with Thanksgiving is not having enough room in your stomach for all the good food. It was so wonderful to be with family and celebrate all we have to be thankful for.

Take that

This is our remedy for the pesky critters that terrorize our veggie garden. Lets see them eat my tomatoes now!!!!! So excited to grow more veggies, now I just need to figure out how to grow in a greenhouse in Arizona.

Horsin around

If you put 2 quarters in this horse you get a 2 min. ride. This ride costs a lot more than 2 quarters but the ride lasts longer than 2 min.

Happy Halloween

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, almost every year we have a pumpkin carving party with family and friends. Jr & I dressed up this year as Danny & Sandy from Grease. I think Jr makes a pretty good John Travolta.The cutest little giraffe ever.
This is how Kiesha celebrated!!!!
My in laws were cold:)

Great day

I woke up to the sounds of falling rain, I got to enjoy this rainbow during breakfast, I finally get to wear my fall/winter clothes, I'm back to fitting into my favorite pair of jeans after 2 years, I got to go to book club & chat with my friends, I put up my Halloween decorations, we went out to dinner, & I chilled on the couch watching Grease. Busy but wonderful day, see if tomorrow can top today.

Yeah I'm 1

On Oct. 2nd Jonathan turned 1. Cw & Amy had a BBQ with friends and family to celebrate. Amy made Jonathan his very own cake and he wasn't to sure about it, he stuck his finger in the icing and then flung his hand to get it off. He never did really take a bite of his cake.

What does it look like?

What does it look like is happening in this photo? A tornado in Arizona? We stood in our yard (until the hail started coming down) and watched this amazing storm.
We got lots of hail, I have never personally seen hail this big.
The sky looked so amazing.
We got lucky that we weren't in the direct path, but we got strong winds, tons of rain & a lot of hail. I would call this a mother nature temper tantrum!!!
