We would like to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving! We have much to be thankful for, including you :) Enjoy!
This edition includes pics of AJ at his Friday playgroup, Joe's birthday party, Shantae's babyshower, Artist's birthday party and some other fun stuff for good measure!

I made Native-American feathered headbands with the kids at daycare...
We really love our church and church family...the Marriage Ministry (called After-I-Say-I Do ministry) hosted an evening of dinner and jazz and also had a mini workshop on effective ways to communicate with your spouse. We had a great time!


Me and my stamping (Stampin' Up!) buddies...we meet once a month over Kathy's house, where we let our creativites run wild...I really look forward to getting with them each month!
