Thanksgiving 2007

We hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! Tennessee is absolutely gorgeous in November! I've never experienced weather like this! People are still eating lunch outside on patios and it's nearly December!

We had three Thanksgiving feasts this year! One at McCallie's dining hall, one at D-Daddy and Nana's in Georgia, and one at the Fridays!

D-Daddy and Nana put on an incredible feast for the whole family down in Ila Georgia! There were about 15 people at the lunch/dinner, but they made enough for 50! When we got there, there were 4 pecan and 4 pumpkin pies piled high and D-Daddy made enough Butter-beans for an army - yet Trey was still able to finish them off! The day we left, D-Daddy was up early to make yet another batch so that we could take some home for Trey and Logan to feast on!
The Clark's are examples of pure love and generosity and we love them!

When we first arrived, we got to see Braden, Trey's cousin JoAnna's little boy - who is also off the charts! These Clark kids are big!


Brooklyn was all smiles the whole week. She especially loved D-Daddy (; She knows who spoils her.

Brooklyn also made her first friend this holiday! Trey's good friend, Melanie from the Branch married a guy from my BYU Racquetball team, Zach and they have an adorable little girl who is two months older than Brooklyn. We had a really good time hanging out with them while they -were in town! We left with a car-load of gifts and food - about 20 pounds of peanuts and pecans (and yes, a huge bag for the Harris')
On our way home I was able to go to the Temple while Trey watched Brooklyn, then we went to the mall and had Brooklyn sit on Santa's lap! (Pictures to come)
Unfortunately, when we got back home from Georgia, we found mice running around in our apartment! We found the source fast, but didn't seem to get them all out before we covered their escape rout! We've killed one and saw another last night! AHhh!
It was so funny, when we first saw the mice, I told Trey that this is where I draw the line-I do not catch mice (I have been the one to kill the cockroaches!). He got on his big brown shoes and only had his underwear on as he jumped up and down with a shoe box as I opened each cupboard. We were both screaming like little girls -I'm sure Trey is going to love finding this blog entry!



Now the following pictures is for Heather, because I guess you didn't believe Trey when he told you that D-Daddy knew Kenny Rogers. This is one of the pictures they have with him. This one is of his Aunt and Kenny, but I have seen several pictures with D-Daddy and the rest of the family with him!

Very cute as always! And I did too believe Trey about Kenny but that is cool. Oh and you have mice! Oh my gosh I think I would die! I had to laugh though because I can totally picture you guys running around screaming like little girls, hahaha!

This picture of Aubrey and Brooklyn is my fav - how did we manage to get them both looking at the cameras?! And they look like they're cuddling. I'm going to have to get that picture to put on my blog too.

Option for a Healthy Birth

I am not typically a big writer on my blog. I usually just post a few dozen photos of my adorable child and make little comments below. Well, I need some sort of outlet for all of my frustrations and thoughts and would love some feedback on them. As many of you know, I ended up getting a C-section with Brooklyn after planning on a completely natural birth with the help of Hypnosis. That is a whole nother story, and I wont' go into it, but I learned a lot about the what I want and need to have a healthy delivery. After extensive research into the process of birth, I know that it is possible for me to have a beautiful, natural birth and the things that that entails really aren't extreme and are in fact proven to be healthier choices for both me and my baby. (For our book group this month, we are reading "Gentle Birth Choices" by Barbara Harper, which is one of several books I have read on the topic and one that I would highly recommend - as well as the documenary ...
