In a word....ADORABLE

We had Korbyn's 1 year pics taken and I must say he's stinkin' cute! He is such a ham we didn't even have to pose him.

Happy Thanksgiving!

"Both abundance and lack of abundance exist simultaneously in our lives as parallel realities. It is our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend...when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that's present- love, health, family, friends, work, joys of nature, and personal pursuits that bring us happiness- the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience heaven on earth."

I found this quote (on a friend's website) and thought it was pretty profound. I thought it was great for the Thanksgiving season.

Time flies.....

Ok I know (as my sister recently pointed out) it's been a while,but I never said I was good at this. We have had a busy couple of months. Here is a rundown. 1st of all our little Ms. Kailey turned the big 5. She is super cute!

Also, our little baby turned 1. I can't believe that one, I think i'm still in shock! We did have a fun b-day party for him and his cousin Kali at April's house. They are only 9 days apart so we did a mixed party for them.

We've also been in the process of finishing our basement. What a treat! It's a good thing we are not building a whole house. I honestly don't think I would survive. We are fortunate enough to have a good friend who is doing the work for us. His name is Neal Smith (if anyone is interested) and he's doing a great job. Here's a few pics of the progress......

And then of course we celebrated Halloween. Our family had a Star Wars theme. (Kevin was in heaven). Joe and I were Princess Lea and Hann Solo, Korbyn was Chewbacca (we called him Korbacca), Kailey was Ashoka (from the new movie), and Kevin was a Clone Trooper.

We made some pretty awesome pumpkins and got tons of loot
