Ahh, Thanksgiving..
A day dedicated to ignoring calories, eating till you pass out, & family.
This year I have so much to be thankful for. By nature I'm a thankful person.
No matter how my day wasor whats going on in my life I'm always
aware of what Ive been given.
I am so thankful for my father, my creator & the relationship I have with him. He loves me
so deeply, even when I turn away from him he takes me back again & again. I truly don't deserve his
mercy & grace.
I'm so thankful for my dear husband Garrett Dale. The provider & leader of our home. I feel
so lucky to be in a marriage that's full of love. My best friend. We are so perfect for each other.
Our girls have an amazing daddy & role model. I cannot put into words, how much I love you.
I'm incredibly thankful for my girls. Claire Isabell & Scarlett Eva. My precious darlings
have made my life something I never imagined. Full of sweetness, innocence & lots of work
I treasure every moment we share together. Your true blessings. Love you to the moon & back.
I'm thankful for my Siblings & Parents.
I love them so much, growing up in about a 1100 sq. ft house we were very close.
5 kids!! & My parents always provided.

Pleased
Claire is almost a full blown reader. Sight words she has down.
Such as.. the, we, can, us, my, me..Now shes sounding out words and reading
mini books. I'm so pleased!! Weekly her teacher sends home a bag of books.
Beginner books & she flows through them. Reading to me, daddy & sister.
I cannot believe how fast shes growing up. I literally am sick about it.
She breaks my heart with her independence & sass. We kept track of all the
books she has read, & she received a gift card for a free pizza..Well done Claire!
Her handwriting is even Getting neater.

Little Gems
Lately, I drop Claire Off at her school.
I used to walk her in, It was extreme to me. She is my baby
one, & two piece of mind. Those days are gone.
She insists on walking in by herself..I shed a few tears the first day.
Seems so silly to most, I'm sure. Letting go is hard for me! Mornings are so much
smoother now I will admit. I don't have to get myself ready. It was becoming
a lot of work to walk her in with Scarlett, Cold windy mornings aren't
fun for her. So this is a good milestone..
My darlings this morning before School
I love the way Claire is looking at her baby sister..I become a puddle of emotion watching these two play together.. Claire Picked out this outfit herself (headband & all) Not bad hu? She wants to wear her rain boots everyday. I allowed it yesterday, cause we had rain :) I'm crazy about her lil blazer. Target Special!!
They carry a new line in the big girl section called D-signed. Its Disney. $24.99
Not bad for some serious cuteness.
Scar Fresh Outta the bath..This girl loves bath time..I look forward to bathing her, watching her splash around. Shes amazed by the water & the sound. Shes so wonderful!!
Last weekend, I was asked to sub in for a bunco group. friends of a friend type of thing. Anyhow they have themes & meet once a month. Novembers theme was wine & wigs. Which I thought was so fun! I didn't have a wig, however I did have wine..Plenty! I really enjoyed myself..I figured out how bad my Bunco skills were too..
You see where Claire gets her smile??

Answerd Prayer
This morning was quite brisk.
Too cold for my taste. If you ask me, I think the temp around
here should stay at a nice 75 and never go below or above.
Anyhow On our way to school Claire & I noticed
all the kids in the neighborhood waiting on the bus. Some not dressed so
warm. Claire quickly pointed out, how sad she was for them &
that they must be freezing. I replied I know sis.
She then said "I wish we could help. I'm so glad my mommy takes me
to school everyday, I never want to wait for the bus on a curve"
(Curve=Curb)
This just eased my soul..She cares for others!! As do I.
Many many questions run through your mind as your a parent.
The one that never leaves my mind is, Am I making the right choices..?
Am I teaching her the right things? Its constant, its nagging, & I hate it! But
hearing my child say she wants to help someone, lets me know I'm doing something
right. I have taught her to care for living things & to love. My constant prayer
for this family is not wealth, its not something you can hold..Its that
we remain Children of Christ, never lose sight, & LOVE!!
My children & husband are so precious to me. More precious than gold.
God Is so good

Weekend Goodies!
This weekend was full of goodness..I didn't want it to end.
Typically I never want any weekend to end.
Anyhow Sat morn we went to a parade here in Moore.
The girls really liked it. Claire especially..Ya know candy &
the marching band. They are huge to her.
Scar while in her stroller, smiled the whole time.
It was a bit chilly, but not enough to make us stay home.
Sweet Claire with Her daddy
Later Sat eve, the hubs & I headed to dinner. A date night, we never get to have them. So Garrett's parents came over and kept the girls for us. We went to red rock & had some yums. It was a fun, fab night. I actually put on a full face of makeup & Curled my hair! I don't have time to be cute these days. I figured My husband needs to see me spiffied every now & then!
Sunday morning we got up and went to church. I loved the sermon. Tithing & living a blessed life in return. Something that has been on my mind. Especially with the holidays approaching.
I'm so glad I was blessed to hear what I did. We had a guest speaker, who is also a writer. His book proceeds go straight to charity, what a true testimony. After church we came home and watched football ALL day..By 8 I was ready for Dexter!
