In the Middle of the Ocean for our Girls 8th birthday

WOW what a lucky girl she is...well we all are lucky...cuz we were in the Carribeain this November...and our sweet little Madie turned 8.  I am amazed at how she is so grown up but so little...she still needs me and I am glad for that.
Here she is on her birthday....So beatiful





We went snorkling all day...We were on Cast away Cays The Disney Island and we really enjoyed the day

November and December FLY BY


It has always fascinated me that the months of November and December are so full.  SO many holidays and celebrations and that is not counting my beautiful Madie's b-day or mine.  Fall is my favorite time of year and I love that in California I can wear flip flops still but need to wear a sweatshirt at night.  I love leaves and wish that we would have the change of colors like they do back east but we don't.  Fall in CA is more about the feeling then anything...the chill in the air, the warm up with a cup of tea.  Those are the things that I love too.  The meals that you cook...and I just don't cook much but for some reason Fall brings out the hidden cook in me.  This November and December were no different in the fullness of the thing we did...in fact it was pack...here is a overview so that I will almost be caught up with life on my GOOD LIFE blog....
I celebrated my B Day at Dland with my family

Thanksgiving day...








I love Birthdays and we had fun celebrating at Areli's Grotto for dinner.

My first time really making a Thanksgiving dinner...WOW...all my doing * with my moms help* but only because the real chef was sick....in bed...came down for dinner said it was yummy and went back to bed....Hee hee So say he was sick but so proud of myself for doing it all.

December flew by once again

Our morning...

I am most thankful for the wonderful family I have around me.  I am a good person because of them.  I love how my kids get excited for the season and I pray that this year will be full of more wonderful memories.
