My Thanksgiving Post

Ok so I took this picture by myself so that's why I look like poop...The angle I took the picture from makes my middle torso look grossly huge and then my head is tiny. At least I hope it's just the angle...mahahahahhaha. Sad. Ok so that was umm...about 25 weeks when I took it. How am I always so far behind with these things! By the end of the day I promise I will take some pictures that are real time!

I can't wait because later this afternoon we will be having a family reunion of sorts with my cousins J.P. and Jace whom we never get to see! Thanksgiving was sooo yummy! I ate WAY to much so in my next picture if I look fatter that's why! Just kidding it's all the baby's fault! My sister and her kids are here visiting from New Mexico so it's been chaotic with her 4 girls running around! Of course we really miss my Mom but we've been able to talk to her twice through Skype. The connection was pretty awesome considering she is in Indonesia! I'm very sad I couldn't have Dougie here with me for the holiday but we kept in touch through text message! His family took him a nice big dinner at work and they even made him his favorite spice cake! (he won't touch my favorite pumpkin desserts!) I personally made an apple pie and pumpkin cake thingy from the ground up! I was so proud of myself cause they both turned out amazing! All in all it was another good holiday in San Manuel!


This year i've certainly had my ups and downs but no matter what I remain thankful for every one of lifes little blessings! I am thankful for my relationship with Doug and how amazingly we fit together. I am thankful for this little man growing inside of me and can't wait to meet him! I am thankful for my family no matter how hard that can be sometimes. I am thankful to have such wonderful and supportive friends backing me through all this turmoil. Finally I am thankful 2009 will be over soon because no matter what it was a year I will remember forever but am trying sooo hard to forget!
