Thankful

I am so thankful for my family today. They mean everything to me!  We are celebrating Thanksgiving with just us again this year. I have come to embrace and love everything about it. I have rallied the troops in helping prepare the food. Jenna made a blueberry pie, Alyssa made banana pudding jello, Jason prepared the turkey and broth for the gravy with the turkey neck, Melanie made the stuffing, Cameron made a chocolate pudding pie. I fill in the holes and make the rest. It is really fun and the kids love helping to prepare!  We have so many blessing to be thankful for. The biggest being the Atonement of Jesus Christ, our knowledge of the Plan of Salvation, and the true joy of the gospel.

Devastated

I am DEVASTATED that this blog has taken a back seat to my busy life! It seems that 6 kids has really thrown off my down time and I don't see it slowing down anytime soon. I do realize that it all comes down to what we prioritize in our life and what we really want to focus on that gets the attention. Right now that is getting myself healthy physically, mentally and emotionally, making sure my kids are to all their activities, kids are learning to work in between at home, laundry, yard work, and hopefully making some fun memories along the way with our family. I really love to write my thoughts down and have sat down on several occasions to hand write in my journal. That is very therapeutic for me. I love to write down thoughts I have lately, feelings I get and experience or just about my day, good and bad. I get a lot of joy out of reading from that journal when I look back on the years. It isn't like the blog where I mostly write about the kids and fun things going on
