Happy Thanksgiving - One Little Indian Girl

One Little Indian Girl! Mckenna came home from school yesterday and said she wanted to dress up like an Indian for their Thanksgiving feast. The Feast was today....Short Notice.....but we pulled it off. I started working on it and the rescue party (a.k.a. my mom) came to help. Good thing. We found all the supplies in her basement - material, beads, headband ribbon. Mckenna was so excited about it.

Exciting Moment

We had an exciting moment in the Willey Home this week. Mckenna read the scriptures (the scripture reader) for us during family scriptures. She is getting to be such a good little reader. It is so fun. Everywhere we go she is reading the signs, t-shirts, Christmas lists....dang!! It is always fun to see your children progress.

A Whole New World

Good Excuse

Alright...so I haven't blogged for a long time but I have a good excuse. We took our family trip the first part of October. Me and the girls were exploring tide pools. Mia started to slip and I tried to grab her...then I started to slip and BAM. Mia and I both ended up falling and my camera went flying in the air and landed in a tide pool. I quickly grabbed it. It wasn't in the water long...but long enough that my camera no longer works. There is a funny part to this story though. There was a little piece of the camera that broke off and a sea anemone quickly grabbed it. Mckenna and I worked for a while trying to get the anemone to let go of it. Finally, we successfully retrieved it. At least we have a fun memory. Luckily my card still worked and I didn't loose any of the pictures I had taken. We had bought Mckenna an underwater camera that morning to use while she was snorkeling....so at least we had some type of camera. You forget all the nice conveniences of a digital camera....mainly knowing what you captured instead of waiting for the prints to realize you missed the moment.

This is a Sea Anemone

Any how...Besides an excuse with the camera...life is just so dang busy. I feel like there is always somewhere to be or something that has to be done from dinner to changing diapers. It's all good though! I have added a few posts below of the Kids. Hopefully we will post again before 3 months go by!
