Thanksgiving, Time of Thanks!

On this thanksgiving day, I have been pondering what I have been given and what I have to be thankful for. There are many things in my life to be thankful for, and I am happy that I am able to have a day that I can ponder on those things that make me most thankful. I try to think of everything, but sometimes that is difficult, as everything in my life is such a great blessing!

Random Fall Pictures

I was thinking that I should put in some random Fall picts, mainly of my niece, because she really is cute:) I have a lot of fun playing with her, and I wish I lived around more of my family so that I could play with my other Niece's and Nephew's! Maybe that will be my goal one day, but for now, I think that I will just enjoy the fact that I live around one of them:)

Happy Halloween!

Yay for Halloween!!! When I was growing up, Halloween wasn't a huge deal for me. I think that it was because I had siblings that were so much older than me and stopped trick or treating when I was very young. I don't remember much of Halloween's as a child, besides mom making us pick out all of the sticky candy and gum and throwing it away:) I remember a few costumes, but they were usually hand me down costumes that mom would create for me. Not that I'm complaining, I loved what I dressed up as. I remember once dressing up as a Hobo, patches on levi overalls and everything. But, I don't think that I trully appreciated the act of dressing up untill I got to college. College Halloween is more of: I have no money, what can I put together that I already have that will look like a costume? Well, every year I just throw a bunch of things together, and I have fun with the whole dressing up concept. Not because I get to go out and buy a costume and wear it, but because I can make something up with what I have! As a child, I always looked forward to getting all of the halloween candy, and that was fun, but now that I am older, I love just dressing up, going to a party, and having fun, no matter how much of a dork I feel like!! Hope you enjoy some of my Halloween pictures, this year me and two of my other roommates dressed up as who's. I was Super Hero Who, Cami was Dr. Who, and Marie was Bed-Time Who...
