HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!

Of course like all thanksgivings on the crump side its usually pretty chaotic.
cooking the turkey, making the rolls, the jello salad blah blah blah....then helping my mom cook and decorate since she was hosting it this year you can say like everyone else's it was a busy morning and it didn't help that I have a Stupid head cold and It didn't help that to start off my morning I totally ran into a car ....oh I just didn't run into it I literally ran over the top of the poor little honda civic. I was backing up and couldn't see because I was in Micah's truck. The only thing it did to the truck was bent the exhaust. Yep Micah was pretty upset and of course gave me the lecture of looking behind before you back up. Thanks micah!

Overall it was a nice day. Aiden thought it was the coolest thing to see the inside of a turkey. And we had a wicked game of spoons. There are no rules when it comes to playing spoons in my family. We have had chairs broken, tables broken, biten hands, broken spoons, a heartattack --my grandpa had one when I was little ....you think that would end our tradition of spoons but it didn't. And Aiden and his little cousins had a good game of clue. Although I'm not sure who won but they had fun.

Busy Week

This has been such a busy and ultra long few weeks. First of all Micah had to go to wyoming for a total of six days three one week and three the next over night for work. Those were the longest days ever. Secondly somebody had a birthday.....HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICAH!!!!! I tried to do something fun but the plans were kind of ruined when he got home from work later than I thought so instead of going to a play we went to dinner with the kids and to madagascar which they loved.
We had a trip to the uncle Todd's dentist office yesterday and Aiden did so good with his x-rays but bad news, he has a cavity which is kind of funny because on the way home he's like dad I need to go in to the stores bathroom and brush my teeth right now. He's scared that he is going to get another cavity. So hes a little paranoid right now. Which is a good thing so he will remember to brush his teeth. Mason did pretty good for his first time, they got halfway through cleaning his teeth when he shut his mouth and wouldn't let them finish. I guess next time they will finish the other half.
Finally after along and exciting wait I saw "the" movie and I dragged Micah to it he was embarrased to admit that he had a ticket to the movie but he admited he liked it which I knew he would.

AND Mason is finally potty trained and when I say finally he has always been partially potty trained since this summer he would always pee but he was terrified of pooping in the toilet, but now he's got it down...such a big boy. I'm so glad...no more poopy diapers. WOOHOO!!!
although he has bad timing its usually when we are at tthe store and instead of an hour it turns into a 2 hour shopping because he has to go poo and he takes FOREVER!!!!but hey at least no more poopy diapers.WOOHOO!!!! oh I already said that but I will say it again WOOHOO!!!!!

A little late...





I finally got my pictures downloaded. Here is my bumblebee oh excuse me my "transformer" bumblebee. Everyone kept mistaking him for a power ranger or wwhen he said bumble bee they would say are you going to sting me. He would get so annoyed. It was funny. Here is my little Franky. Micah made the head.



Aidens favorite part of Halloween and always has been since he could say "happy halloween" is answering the door for our trick or treaters he thinks it is so much fun and it's nice so I don't have to get the door every two seconds.





This year after we got done treating which lasts about 30 minutes because Aiden wants to hurry home to answer the door he sat outside our door with the bucket of candy and waited for the trick or treaters it was the funniest thing ever.

My family

Last night we got invited for dinner at the Thornes. I have to say it was a humbling evening. There are some people who I hear that don't have the best relationships with there in-laws. I for one Love them with all my heart, I seriously could not live without them. There is so much love and peace when we are together I love being around them and hearing there
testimonies of our faith they all have such strong spirits. They truly inspire me to become a better person because of there examples. I truly admire my mother-in-law. First for raising 6 kids by the age of 31. I can't even imagine. She has so much to offer and is always willing to do anything for you. She is such a worry wart but thats what I love most about her because she cares so much about everyone around her. If it wasn't for her I wouldn't be a picture fanatic with my kids. She got me into scrapping booking.
The same for my dear father-in-law who is the most talented dad I know. He can pretty much do anything and has done everything. It is so crazy even though Micah is adopted I have to say they are two peas in a pod.
Now that I am in tears. I just have to say I am truly blessed with a wonderful family on all sides.
