Wonderful Week

This past week was such a wonderful one for us.  We have so many things to be thankful for.  First of all I am so thankful that my husband has a job!  He was laid off for 9 days and it was so nice to have him home!  He was able to help friends in need when their female had puppies (our dog was the Stud dog).  He went hunting (not as much as he would have liked), cleaned out the storage shed (wahoo!!, that was a huge task!), mowed the lawn, cleaned out the kennels, played games with us and so forth.

We had the opportunity of seeing a great movie The Blind Side, Wednesday my family came over for Thanksgiving Dinner and we had a delicious meal then played games.  It was so nice to have them over.  Thursday we enjoyed a wonderful meal with his sister Sondra and their family in Middleton.  We were able to bring our neighbor Patty with us who is going thru some really hard times with us and Sondra had a friend there as well.  Jerry and I took a couple of plates of food over to my Dad that afternoon.  It was so nice to do that for him.  Then that evening we  were invited to friends in our Ward for dinner and games and had such a good time there!  Ross and I stayed up until 2:30 am watching The Great Escape one that I have not seen before.

Friday was a good day, lazy but good.  That evening we took Jerry and Raelene to their first BSU Football game.  A guy that Ross had trained his dog for got us 4 tickets to the Nevada game at BSU.  IT was SOOO cold and wet but we had a good time.

Saturday night we went to the Gold and Green Ball at the Stake Center.  We had a good time there.  Raelene took our picture for us just before we left.  I think she did a pretty good job.
That about sums it up.  We have so much to be thankful for.  I am thankful for my family and friends.  For my freedoms and to be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
