Christmas Shopping

So today I was shopping with Zack and we were at the mall. We passed the Photo booth and Zack insisted that we step inside. We took a pic that looked like we were on a post card from the nortth pole, it was really cute! We also took 4 standard booth pics. One with bunny ears one with Zack kissing my cheek, smiling and one goofy. He was so excited to get home and show dad what we did. He is really fun to go shopping with at the mall he wants to go on the escalators and show me that he is not scared and he can do it all on his own! I am so glad that he is wanting to be more independant. Christmas hasn't been very stressfull YET...finding gifts wasn't as hard this year. I made alot of them and Zack doesen't exaclty try and hide what he wants. Santa won't have to guess what he wants this year. I am not happy that we haven't given to a family in need this year. I really didn't make the effort that I ususlly do. I will take alot of Zacks old toys to DI but I don't think that really counts. I did donate to a child in need at work but I like to see the faces of those I have helped It makes it more memorable. Well I guess I had better get looking!

Thanks giving

Another loss! I did well on thanksgiving up untill it was time to eat. I think I kept it under 2,000 claories but who knows. I gained 3lbs last week so I am sure my figures are all wrong. So I am being extra strict. I have 60 more lbs to loose so I had better get to it!
Enough about me oh wait that is what this blog is for haha.
Well we had a great time on thanksgiving. First we went to my parents and ate a hearty meal there. But only stayed for an hour or two as I had to get home to finish the cooking before our guests arived. Even with 15 dinner guests we still had so much food we are still eating left overs. We had about 8 more people come for pie, I wish they would have had more. I made 4 banana cream, a huge pumpkin,and they brought grandma's brownies. By the end of the knight I just wanted to sleep. The dishes can wait!

The day after Thanksgiving we had a new little bundle of joy join our family my brother Aaron and his wife Katie had there new baby boy Taytan. He was three weeks early but healthy and was able to go home with mom and dad.
