Diet Update

Well, Cooper's diet didn't last long. I want to help him lose the weight, but feeding them 3-6 times a day wasn't working. So we went to walmart to see if we could find any kind of hard food that was healthy for them. I spent about 15 minutes flipping over every bag of cat food to see what was in it! I swear people that I was crazy!! I felt like it too. After searching high and low, I found some that looked pretty look. You know its a good sign when you bring the bag home, and they try to rip it open. So far so good, I only have to feed them twice day! I'll let you know if Cooper loses any weight.

Christmas In The Night Time Sky

Every year Shawn & I try to make to "Christmas in the night time sky" You are just suppose to bring a toy for a boy or girl, and they feed you dinner (chili or chili dogs) and have huge bon fires, and later a firework show. We have gone every year, but one since we have been together. I never knew about it before I met him. I think that its a good way to kick off the Christmas season. I'm so happy to see how many people come out in the freezing cold to help kids that can't afford Christmas. The fireworks we awesome (almost better than the 4th of July!) I can't wait until next year!

Thanksgiving

We really didn't do much on Thanksgiving. Shawn worked all night Wednesday and got home at 7:30am Thursday morning. I let him sleep til 11:30am, then it was off to his Uncle's House. For the past 2 years we have gone to his Uncle's house, which is kinda fun cause all of Shawn's extended family are there. Its nice to see the people we don't see very often. We left around 2pm, and Shawn was fast asleep when we walked in the door. So I pretty much just watched football ALL DAY LONG!!! Than Shawn was off to work again later that night.

I just want to tell everyone how thankful I am for their friendship. I wouldn't be the person I am today if I didn't have you in my life. I'm so thankful to be alive and in good health. I'm so thankful that I was able to find & marry my best friend & The love of my life! I know that we sometimes have our ups & downs, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. I'm so thankful, that I didn't lose him a few months ago. I know that Heavenly Father has a plan for both of us, and we aren't done here yet. I'm just so thankful for my life, and can't wait to see whats in store for us next.
