Thanksgiving

Our Thanksgiving week was filled with fun. We enjoyed visiting Grandma June and cousins, seeing Harry Potter with the big kids, Tangled with the babes, great conversation and of course Thanksgiving day!!!

Thanksgiving day 2010 was such a fabulous day~We ran our Rodriguez Turkey Trot. Here is Chloe nice and snug in her jogger. She loves to go running with mommy, but this time around daddy pushed her! After our run...Jenn's taking the pic.
Our little family of 3. Ohh how I am thankful for these two people. Words cannont express the love and appreciation I have for them both.

Here is Anna and Chloe waiting for bagels. It must be said that if there is any sort of ledge Chloe will go try and sit on it....
Claire wanted in on the action! Who wouldn't blame her.

While waiting to leave Daddy gave Chloe a driving lesson. (The car is parked and we didn't drive anywhere without her buckled safely in her car seat).

Next up is our annual Turkey Bowl football game but due to low numbers (Curt and Kim out and Jenn 7 months preggo) we decided to get the two older babes involved and play a game of soccer. Don't be fooled, although we had little kids playing with us, our game was still very involved...and soccer...WAY more tiring than football.

Chloe loved to throw the football around and roam the park.I Love her so bad!

Finally it's turkey time...YUMMY! These were the only pics I got of Chloe in her Thanksgiving day best. As she gets older the harder it is for her to sit still and take a pic. She is constantly running away. Little Booger.

Thanksgiving is a very special time of year and this year I am very thankful for a husband who I LOVE so much and who works soo hard to support Chloe and me, who is constantly keeping things in perspective, who helps me be a better person each and everyday, who keeps me laughing and smiling day in and day out and for making my life complete.

I'm also very very thankful for Chloe. Although being a mom isn't all flowers and rainbows it's the most rewarding job EVER. The love I have for her is sooo unconditional. She makes my world a brighter place and is constantly pushing me to be the best version of myself. She is always making me laugh. She is so spunky, fun, outgoing and independent and I wouldn't change her for anything.

I'm thankful for the gospel, without it I would be lost. I'm thankful for my Savior and for his sacrifice. And I am reminded everyday that through him I have my family for eternity, and THAT is the greatest blessing I'll ever know and ever need.

Happy Thanksgiving.
