Thanksgiving 2008

So we celebrated Cherisa and Tayson Birthday this weekend while they were home for Thanksgiving. Some how I ended up getting whip cream threw in my face. Yes it was all Wes Robertson my loving brother in law fault. I guess a year ago I got him with frosting I dont remember what for but I do remember I got him GOOD and you can see in the video he got me back. My loving husband was in on it too. So again we spend our family gatherings with food fights. Usually it is water but I guess that is getting old. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year. We spent it at my Aunt Cindys house. We first had a wonderful meal at my sister in law and brother in laws (Kathryn and Jeff) house on Wednesday night, then on Thursday we went to my aunts. I think I have ate enough turkey for the year. Here are some of our Thanksgiving picture.
In the top picture is everyone getting dinner ready. The bottom one is of all us cousin from left to right is Marie (Erics girlfriend, Breann, Jennie, Me, Kelby, and Cherisa). So I hope everyone had a amuzing Thanksgiving like we did. Love you all

Today is World Diabetes Day.

Chelsie our oldest daughter has type 1. She has had it for almost 5 years now. Here is a website that you can go to and learn more about this disease www.worlddiabetesday.org please remember if you look at this site Chelsie is doing fine. We have had a few kids in our town lately die from this. So has we keep fighting for a cure. Our daughter keeps living a life with it. I have always thought that one day they will tell me that the cure has been found. I now just watch her grow into a beautiful young lady, she has done things that I never thought she could do. She has not let this hold her down from anything. So remember today as a day that one day there will be a cure and until then we will keep fighting it. We love you all.
