Thanksgiving Fun!

From Thanksgiving Dinner - to Black Friday - to Temple Lights we had a fantastic time!
Nothing says Thanksgiving to our family - than watching the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade! We love the man in the red suit at the end.
Thanks to Timilie and Patti for prepping the potatoes - Marie did an excellent job mixing and mashing - but hey - what can go wrong with a pound of butter?
Thanksgiving dinner in style with Marynda's handmade outfit and Timothy's place mat - gotta love elementary art!
After the Black Friday fun - thank you Patti for standing in line at Kohls to make our wait only and hour - we decided to take the kids to Bass Pro for their first outdoor shopping visit - Timothy said it was nothing but AWESOME!
And what better way to end a wonderful weekend than the Mesa Arizona Temple Christmas Lights!
I love my family so much - for my life is richly blessed!

Saving the OZONE 1 car at a time!

So one of my job duties includes coordinating the Maricopa County Trip Reduction Program (car-pooling program) for our office. This year I really have been a slacker but decided before the new year started I would create a bulletin board that I would actually want to post information on. Here is the final production! I must say with a little card stock, and some cute clip art later - WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO CARPOOL?

Who says Dogs don't enjoy comfort?

So this is Maggie's favorite spot to relax. Every night like clock work if the pillows are down on the floor she is out like a light! Hmmm guess Santa knows what to bring her for Christmas - Pillows of her own!

It's Great to be Eight!

This weekend was the baptism of my only nephew (so far) Timothy! The weekend was filled with wonderful family time and great food - the great food is a given I know!

Timothy got to share his special day with his cousin Brett. Aaron (Brett's dad) and Keith are brothers.

No great party is complete without cake and lots of kids! And obviously Timothy has the Carragher height working for him as Brett has the Caldwell height working for him.

Timothy wasn't to pleased to take pictures on Sunday morning - just had to capture the special weekend!

I love my family so much. I am so blessed to be a part of a family that CTR's and make the decisions that keep us together forever! Timothy I am so proud of you and your desire to do what is right!
