Giving Thanks

My sister and her hubby Craig came down from Seattle to celebrate Thanksgiving with me... we had a good time. Sending love to all of you all and I pray that you all had a great one as well!!

Happy 33 Years, Mom and Dad!

My cute parents, celebrate 33 years of marriage today. :) They're headed to Zion National Park to go camping and then having Thanksgiving dinner down there... read post below to see the awesome e-mail from my mom.

I love them.

From my mom...

So, my mom (umma) sends me e-mails once in a while, and I LOVE them. I think I need to start printing them out and putting them in a binder/book so I can go back to them one day. She just started using email a few years ago.

Anyway, she and my dad are celebrating their 33rd (or 34th) wedding anniversary this week! YAY MOM AND DAD!! I had sent them a card and below is her e-mail reply... I just HAD to share. :)

I just finished 4 weeks of exercise bootcamp!!!! I went FIVE DAYS A WEEK without missing one day! Um, and let me add here that it was at 5:30AM-6:30AM.

It is one of those big milestone accomplishments in my life. I am just proud of myself and taking care of myself in that way.

WHOOT WHOOT!!

Even in pajamas....

I love this child. She is growing so much and I am so privileged to be a part of her day to day life.
