I can do it any Saturday but the 5th. Braun said he can do it on the 12th. So I'm putting it out there lets try and do it on the 12th. If that is a problem please post it.

Sorry, everyone for not updating the blog earlier. Life for us is out of control. We are dealing with Ruth (Vicki's mom), her cancer, and a recent surgery. Everyday is a blessing that we still have her with us. We are uncertain what the future holds for mom, or how long she will still be with us. We thank Heavenly Father for the extended time we have had with her and love and respect her for her life and example of unwavering faith, charity, and service.

We look forward to seeing you all in January and wish the blessings of the Lord be poured out upon you and your families.

Love you all.

I finally got it done1

That's right. I finally figured my google account out so I could sign in and finally join the family fun. I think it will be fun to keep in touch with everyone a lil' better and know what is going on in everyones live. We are excited for Thanksgiving and I can't wait to try to make another pie. I made one on friday and I'm still alive, so don't worry. HAHA See you all soon.

Brooke and Brittney helped Firth win the runner-up trophy at State, both ran great. Thanks, Dad, Mom, Steve, Holly and family for coming up and supporting the girls, we were thrilled to see you all. We will be down Saturday afternoon probably around 12:00. We thought we'd bring a seven layer salad, and a Banana Cream pie. If you like us to bring something, let us know.

We took the girls to hannah montana they loved it. They were filming a movie that day and so the concert lasted till 11 then they got to be interviewed after the concert. They didnt seem happy so I dont know if they will make it on the movie or not. We also got to move from the upper bowl down closer to the floor. It was alot of fun to be with shi. I also thought everyone would like to see what the kids were for halloween. Don't I look good also. I hope everyone had a fun halloween we did. I guess we will see everyone at thanksgiving. Love Ya

So I have a question...I can't get work off on the 17th...so the very earliest I can get off is 12(that's if i can only work a half of a shift) but it will most likely be 3:30 that I get off. So I just wanted to know what time the whole Thanksgiving thing was going down. If its earlier say 1-3, we probably won't come but if its later like 6:30 or 7, we could probably book it down there and make it. But if its earlier say 3:30-4, I could also beg my bosses for only a half of a day and see what they say. I know that it is impossible to get everyone together at once, but I just wanted to make my very best effort. And please don't change anything around just let me know the time and I'll go from there. Okay? Thanks guys!!! love you all :)

Hello from Roosevelt

Hey everyone! We are so happy that Bree's MRI came back so well. It really helps when you can see the blessings come into your life. We can't wait to see everyone for Thanksgiving. We will bring rolls and Tyler wants to bring a strawbwerry pie if I can find strawberries. (If not we'll bring something along that line.) Also we were wondering if we could crash at Brock and Vicki's on Friday night. We have to be back to Roosevelt for the Primary Program on Sunday.
All is well and we are happy that we survived soccer. But the break won't last long, basketball season is about to start for Devin. And Ashley has her first orchestra concert tomorrow. Alyssa is the social butterfly of first grade. And Drayton is enjoying helping Tyler winterize tractors on Thursday for his Uncle Shane. Let me know if we need to bring anything else. See ya later! Monica
