THANKSGIVING

I love thanksgiving.  I think Isaac loves it more.  Football and food.  What else could a guy ask for!  Especially when his wife plays football with him and makes a lot of the food:)!   I was thinking a lot about blessings this morning.  Isaac was reading scriptures out loud and we started talking about Zion's Camp and all the men that were murmuring and those that followed the prophet without complaint.  Who am I?  I think I complain too much sometimes.  We are doing great, but I am often making stupid, trying to be sarcastic, comments about finances, health, family...  When in actuality, I am so blessed.  I really am learning to be content with my 5-8 year old wardrobe and my cute little apartment!  I think this life with Isaac is exactly what I need.  We sure are learning a lot together and loving all the crazy things that come our way.  I am lucky to have the best guy on my team to get through life.  
Cyprus loved having thanksgiving at her cousin's house.  In fact, she wants to visit more.  Today she was sitting at lunch and said, " Um, I think we should go to Avalon's.  That would be fun"  Isaac and I sure need to watch what we say.  Cyprus talks just like we do.  So far... she's only repeated a few embarrassing things:)

I know what you mean about trying not to compain...especially about clothes. I have mostly winter clothing which does me no good around here. Soo what are the embarassing things Cyprus has said?

Erin, It's good to see how you're doing! I hopped to your blog through Heidi's. I think we all complain without thinking from time to time. It's just good that we catch ourselves doing it from time to time too...your daughter is adorable and i love the name;)
Nice to see old friends through the blogging world...so glad you're happy!
