Happy Thanksgiving

We continue to get adjusted to our new family and spent November in a whirl.  Matt celebrated another birthday.  We took Anna for an MRI at Scottish Rite.  I took the kids on a field trip to the Sheriff's department, and they had a blast.  Mike, the police dog, even gave us a demonstration.  We were able to share a Thanksgiving meal with Matt's brother and his family.  We counted our blessings.

 We attempted to get our Christmas picture taken.

 We took Anna's picture in her silk dress from China.

 I cleaned up lots of little messes. 

This one was when Thomas was fixing them both cups of ice water from the refrigerator door.

 We made Joshua's favorite gingerbread men.

We visited with my brother and his family to get Mom's Christmas card picture with the grandkids.

We are so thankful for all of God's blessings this year.
