I'm thankful for an Afi for my children, so very thankful that God has given my dad the opportunity to SEE his grandchildren.

Thankful for my whole family.

Sand Hills of North Dakota

I was looking through our several thousand pictures on our camera, and found these pictures. These were taking this summer, and it was a blast as you can probably see from the photo's. There was friendship, bonding, laughter, love, and peace. It was so much fun seeing everyone, old and young, climb the big hills of sand. Its a memory I'll always remember, and hope my kids do too. And also hope to make it a tradition every time we're back in "Good Ol' North Dakota"!

Happy Halloween

Halloween is always a fun holiday. We did some several pumpkin carvings through the month of October. Took the kids Trick-or-Treating to a few houses, and then we went to a little Halloween party. It was fun, and then kids enjoyed themselves.
