I have been lacking on the gratitude entries.  #6 I am Thankful for Our Eternal Family that we have. #7 I am thankful for Temple's #8 I am thankful for the scriptures #9 I am thankful for electricity. 

I have been meaning to start this since the begining of this month, and I haven't sat down and actually started doing it. So from now until Thanksgiving, plus the first 5 days. #1 My parents- especially since they had me, and I am grateful that they are alive. #2- My loving husband- I am so grateful for him and all he does for us. #3 My little Alyssa- She is such a loving little girl, and a very good helper.   #4- Owen- we are so glad to have him. He has such a loving personality. #5 Evan- our little NICU baby, we are so glad that we have this little guy with us.

I can not believe Halloween is over with, and next month is Christmas. Well here is some pictures from Halloween. We finally carved pumpkins yesterday also. After trick or treating last night I was curious how much candy the kids got  between two trunk or treats and trick or treating. I weighed a bag with all the candy and the total was 7 lb 3 oz. Very hard right now to have all this candy in the house while I am really trying to lose weight. Cory's Pumpkin Here is my pumpkin that I carved. Owen took a marker to it afterwards  Owen's pumpkin, Cory helped him Alyssa's pumpkin, she actually drew the face on her pumpkin and Cory carved it for her. Snow White
