November!

November is the month that I met Brandon (5 years ago)! I didn't know it then, but he would be by far the best friend I have ever had.

November is the month my parents got married... 39 years ago! I know they would still be married today, even with all the ups and downs, my dad always told us our mother was his best friend in life. So, I think Brandon and I are on a good path!

This is one of the last complete family pictures we have.
My dad passed away about 7 months later.
(L-R) Lawrence, Faith, Georgeanne (my cousin), me,
Auntie Carol, Uncle George, mom, and dad

November is the month to give thanks to all the people in our lives.

But I want to tell all of our Family and Friends:  

We are thankful for you and wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving!

And I'm extremely thankful for this guy:

I have a feeling these eyes are going to be trouble later.

He thinks kissing is when you touch foreheads and open your mouth. Silly boy.

And I'm really thankful for this little guy too:

He can spot planes faster than we can!

I worry, That is what I do. Just ask my family. Hudson has had me worried about him since he was 9 days old. When he gets sick, he gets really, really, sick. But I am thankful that it is nothing that can't be fixed. And I'm thankful that he is a strong and independent little boy. Our latest discovery:

He is really allergic to insect/ant bites.
Check out the ear.
This is day 2. On meds.
(But not to the point of throat swelling, so I am thankful of that!)

And most of all:

I am thankful for the men in my life!

Happy almost Thanksgiving!
