Age is inevitable. I remember when I was a lot younger-in high school. One of my favorite people whom I happened to work for asked me what I considered middle age to be. My response was priceless…mainly because of the shocked look on his face! I replied… “I don’t know…I guess-30?!” Rick Osborne’s eyes almost popped out of his head! Years later at his daughters wedding, he asked me how middle age was with THE BIGGEST SMILE on his face ever! I smiled, and said it was great! I don’t think I’m old by any means, but I was worried about this number. I didn’t feel any differently today than I did yesterday. I am proud of my accomplishments in life-my marriage, my children and my love of my Savior, Jesus Christ. These three things are absolutely priceless to me!
Jeff worked on my hutch. My girls and I went to a baptism for my friend, Dong-Mei’s daughter. We then came home, changed clothes and got ready to bake our Thanksgiving feast…but, I decided we needed to go to McDonald’s for a Diet Dr. Pepper first! Ashley made the pumpkin pies (4) while Aylexie and I made stuffing, cranberry relish, potatoes and brined the turkey. After a huge sigh of relief when all was done, I checked on the pies only to find that they looked a little…funny. Ashley had forgotten the eggs, so I whipped up 4 more and threw them in the oven. Thanksgiving was going to be fabulous!
Ashley got me a much needed can opener AND a cute homemade coupon to detail my car with a q-tip! I had mentioned it to her earlier that week :)
Jeff got me my favorite Dove dark chocolate AND is continuing his work on my hutch!
Thomas got me a beautiful scarf!
Aylexie got me THE perfect mug and a coupon to take me to see Catching Fire!
I had such a great day, spending time with my family. I love them to pieces! They are my everything!!!
