Gratitude

Thanksgiving came and went, we enjoyed food, family and the cool weather up in Snowflake. It was so nice being up there. I was so sad I forgot my camera. I charged my battery, and left it right on the table thinking to myself, I WILL NOT FORGET THIS!... I forgot it.
We got to go to the temple, it was amazing! Jeff's brother Matt went through, and this was the first time all 8 kids and spouses were in the temple together. It was just a really neat feeling! It made me so grateful for the gospel in my life. I have truly been blesses with such great families.
I got to stay at my Mom and Dads house, and I am sure they were ready for us to leave when Sunday came. haha, Sassy Kloey had me on my toes about the whole trip. Kloey had went into one of the rooms at my moms house and barricaded the door, and turned on the Iron, and put in right on my moms carpet... uh... Jeff found her in there, and hurried and moved the Iron, but not soon enough. It had burnt an Iron mark in my moms carpet. My Mom was so sweet, and was like.. "I shouldn't have left it out.." When I was talking to Kloey about it, and how it was SO wrong what she did, and ... what do we say to Grandma Kloey..? and Kloey says.. "sorry Grandma... but you shouldn't have left it out.."
AHHH.. My child... goodness sake, I was LIVID.
Yes, my patience has ran thin with her, she makes me angry and gets me laughing all in the same breath. I love her so much, and I am grateful for her. I will be even more grateful for her when this mischievous stage passes.
I am so grateful for my family, Jeff puts up with all the crazy girls running around, and deals with all the drama with such grace. He loves me unconditionally, and my girls are his sweethearts! Kloey is well Kloey, and I love that kid so much, Klaire is just the sweetest thing, and is starting to copy all of Kloey's moves, its cute. I am grateful for each of them, and love them so much! The Lord has truly given me a lot to be grateful for!

You DO exist! I'm glad you had such a great Thanksgiving. We'd love to talk to you or see you or get together or whatever. That is, unless you're avoiding us again. Let's see, we don't have your phone number, we don't know where you live, and we can't reach you thru email. I think I'm going to start taking the hint...
