It is so hard to believe it will be Thanksgiving this week. A lot has happened in the last couple of months. Hayden lost his first tooth and Shayla is gaining teeth. lol Shayla is walking and getting into to much trouble. She is a full time job watching her.
We have had family visit and we have already started building memories in our new place. It is still hard to believe that we had to move and recently we visited Bend and it was hard to see our home sitting there looking sad and empty. I would like to sit down with the family and write a list of memories that we had in that house. There is a lot of memories that I would like to cherish and hold on to because the older I get the more I am forgetting. I don't like that.
It has been raining and raining and raining and raining. Kind of getting used to these gloomy days already. I defiantly have been cooking more in my crock pot which is fun and easy. The weather is predicting snow tonight in Portland. That is hard to believe. The cold is different here. It is freezing today!!
Well I want to wish everyone a great Thanksgiving and hope you enjoy your family and friends and live in the moment. I found these two quotes and thought I would share them. Love you all!!
For, after all, put it as we may to ourselves, we are all of us from birth to death guests at a table which we did not spread. The sun, the earth, love, friends, our very breath are parts of the banquet.... Shall we think of the day as a chance to come nearer to our Host, and to find out something of Him who has fed us so long? ~Rebecca Harding Davis
May your stuffing be tasty
May your turkey plump,
May your potatoes and gravy
Have nary a lump.
May your yams be delicious
And your pies take the prize,
And may your Thanksgiving dinner
Stay off your thighs!
