Happy Thanksgiving From Our Cute Little Pilgrims!

Rachel and Little Worthy are both in Mrs. Johnson's first grade class this year. These pictures are from their fabulous Thanksgiving program this morning. We almost didn't make it because Worthy had an accident right before it started, but after running home and running back, we made it. This is another example of why I'm grateful to live 2 minutes away from my home, work, and children's schools.

We Love Our Cousins

First, my children need to thank aunt Kd for having strep throat. (We hope you're feeling better, Kd). Because she was sick, we got to have the Barton girls at our house for three days. Kate and Worthy were THRILLED, to say the least. Our little house has been bursting at the seams, and a little bit rowdy at times, but we've enjoyed having our cousins here. Worthy (the one in his thirties) commented that our kids are lucky to have cousins they like to spend time with. I hope our kids continue to be buddies throughout their lives. Last night the kids made their own individual pizza masterpieces, so I thought I'd post some pictures.

So I guess I've been tagged. Here are some random and/or weird facts about me:

1. It makes me happy to find a bargain at a yard sale or DI.

2. I love staying home and hanging out with my family. Little Worthy calls these "stay-home days", as in "Is it a stay-home day?" I was just thinking this weekend how lucky I am that I would rather be with my family than with anyone else in the world.

3. I have a dimple on my right (facial!) cheek that is really a scar from running into a cupboard door when I was pretty tiny.

4. When I was growing up I was a reader. I spent many happy hours with just myself and Nancy Drew. I became a non-reader when I had kids, and didn't pick up a book without pictures in it for about 10 years. Now I've become a reader again, to the detriment of the dishes in my sink.

5. I love really stupid movies like Best in Show, Office Space, and Spinal Tap. I also love really sappy ones. I just rented Return To Me from Netflix so I could watch it for the 1,651st time. And I own a copy, I just couldn't find it. LOVE THAT MOVIE!!!

6. I married my stalker.

7. When I was potty training I proudly pooped in the model toilet on display at a hardware store. My poor dad.

Lol here's my random facts.

1. I collect frogs. (Yay Froggies!)
2. I love dressing up in random costumes w/ My buddy Mel.
3. My cat loves me more than anyone else in the family and freaks out when im away.
4. I love to take random pix with my friends. (See picture above)
5. My very most favorite book in the entire universe is Twilight by Stephanie Meyer.
6. I am very upset about the movie coming out on the 21st. There is no way they will be able to do Twilight justice and its just sick and wrong of them to try. The dude they chose as Edward is not hot at all and insults Edwards name. Jacob (Taylor Lautner) on the other hand, is freakin gorgeous!
7. My Vollyball team went undefeated this season! Go Broncos!!!!
