Happy Thanksgiving!


I just wanted to say how grateful I am for such a wonderful family. I know we have our moments, but I feel truly blessed to have each of you be in my family. I know I am really forgetful, and am not always the most thoughtful (sorry again Sue!) but I love each one of you and think we have the best family around. I am especially thankful to have parents who love their Heavenly Father enough to serve a mission. I know it's not easy having you far away, especially at the holidays, but I am very proud of you! I am glad that you set such a good example of the importance of service to all of us. I will miss all of you this Thursday (except the Wood's and Dent's of course) and hope that you will all have a happy holiday.

I am also thankful that in just ONE MONTH I will be on my way to see my parents, who I miss so much!

Love,
Kristin

I've never added anything to a blog before, so here is my first try. This is Mike's deer that he shot this year. Oh, we are soooo proud!! har har. The end.


The girls participated in a piano recital this weekend. They played duets, which they will be judged on this coming saturday, and also played original compositions. The video is of Rachel's song entitled "Rollercoaster" and Kelsey's song entitled "Spider Webs". They worked pretty hard on these songs and both will enter them in the Reflections competition.
I do have to apologize for the poor camera work on my part. I was trying to have a steady hand and juggle Sam. She was not to cooperative during this whole recital.
