Thank God for Indoor Plumbing


I have many things to be thankful for.
But everyone already knows the big stuff.
Like family. Home. Baby. ect. ect.
So I want to concentrate on the things that everyone forgets to mention.

<3

Indoor plumbing.
Bradly Cooper, George Clooney, & Paul Newman
Nurses
Disposable diapers
Modern medicine & epidurals
toothpaste
Everything being just a drive away (like bananas, toothpaste, and eggplant)
mirrors & makeup
Men with accents.
wrinkle cream
Nail clippers
Nature.
Gentle souls (animals and people)
Limbs, fingers, & a mind.
books.


I am truly grateful for all the big things in my life as well.
I am so lucky for my husband, he treats me so well.
he always gets me things and does favors for me
(and puts up with my weird quirks while doing it)
My sweet baby who I love so much.
All my family who would do anything for us.
Good work and a good home.

My list could go on for such a long time I won't bore you.
But know I am grateful for all things, big and small.


Enjoy the fun Thanksgiving photos



So good to me. I love him.

Thanksgiving

"Thanksgiving is a typically American holiday...The lavish meal is a symbol of the fact that abundant consumption is the result and reward of production." -Ayn Rand

I was thinking about this quote all this week....


Pre-Thanksgiving

I think the most important thing to remember
...is that I do not eat meat.
The next that is important to remember
...is that i made turkey for thanksgiving.
That involves pulling turkey necks out of random cavities... and taking out hearts and livers


Franklin owed me big time
:))

Thanksgiving is about giving right?
I am lucky I got this picture because that plate lasted two seconds



We had a small thanksgiving just the three of us.
It was great.
We had tons of leftovers.



Thanksgiving Part Deux (actually)


It started off with softball with the McDowells
I think they only invited me as their secret weapon....
But it was fun none the less.

Then we went to Franklin's Parents house to have some more Thanksgiving fun.

Joni's Thanksgiving was definitely a more experienced Thanksgiving dinner...
Even the plates were fall themed.




THE SADEST THING THIS THANKSGIVING IS THAT I DIDN'T HAVE ANY PIE, SPECIFICALLY PUMPKIN PIE... AND I STILL HAVEN'T (BLASPHEMY).
