Thankful For...

I am thankful for...

a table full of food.

 and for an amazing husband that provides for his family.

I love Kirk so much...I know I rarely talk about him,

 but he is my Hero, my companion, and the father of my children.

He is an amazing example of hard work and determination.

I am so thankful for him.

 We had THANKSGIVING with ALL of our children, our first grandchild,

 Kirk's sister Pennie her husband and our niece, Sydni.

I have been so blessed Josh married a real sweetheart. The more I get to spend time with Ali the more I just adore her. I am grateful that they have chosen to have a family. I did not know it was possible to love more than you do your own child...but being a grandma is beyond amazing.

I love watching Kira and Sergio together,

 and can never thank our Father in heaven enough that they are here with us for the holidays

and hopefully much longer.

I adore my Derek, my son with the Heart of a Lion. I am grateful for the good young man he is.

I am grateful Kirk has such a good family. I truly love his brothers and sisters and their children.

I am grateful for my dad my brothers and sister and for "love ya" texts and phone calls.

So, as FALL 2010 comes to a close...

I can only say what an experience it has been...

NOW BRING ON CHRISTMAS!
