CAN YOU SAY HUGE!!!!

Holy cow the belly decided to explode this past month. Compared to pictures from the last month I can't believe how much it and she has grown. No wonder it is getting more and more uncomfortable everyday to sit, sleep, drive, and do pretty much anything. I know I am not quit ready yet to have Macie come but I am definitely ready to be done being pregnant. It has been a pretty easy pregnancy and everything is going so well but 9 months is definitely a long time to never feel 100% . I have to admit I can not wait for the day that I can sit in the hot tub, sleep in a comfortable position and go for a nice long sweaty run. I do have to be so grateful though for how stress free and wonderful this pregnancy has been compared to the horror stories I hear from women, lets just hope and pray for good labor.

SWEET GIFTS!!!!

Mark had class tonight and when he came home from teaching he had sweet gifts for all his girls.

Flowers for Me

and the cutest shoes ever for Macie

YOU THINK THEY LOVE THERE DAD???

As we were sitting as a family watching the stamps football game I look over and I see Molly and Lily just squished as close as they can into Dad. Well Cobalt was feeling pretty left out and thought she deserved a spot on his lap as well and made her way over to cozy on in. It made me think what it might look like if there was a baby in there as well. 2 months from today is my due date!!! Honestly though how cute it this. I love it.

GIVING AND STUFFING!!!

Well today had to of been one of my favorite Thanksgivings we have ever had. We started the morning buy heading to the Trainers house (friends of ours in our branch and Kitscoy) for a delicious pancake breakfast. Next we headed into Lloydminster to hand out flyers for our Branches Food Drive this Saturday for the Salvation Army. It is such an amazing idea and great act of service for members in our branch to deliver flyers and pick up the donations and a great service for the people of Lloydminster to give back to there community and those less fortunate. Next we headed home to watch some football and have a nice long afternoon nap. We then headed out to the Hollavine Farm (The Angevines and Hollands beautiful farm) for thanksgiving dinner. I have had some good Thanksgiving and Christmas meals in my lifetime but this goes down in the books as being the best. Aunt Shirley definitely outdid herself this year. The stuffing amazing, buns amazing, turkey devine and Mark's homemade Pumpkin Pie was a huge success. Not to mention my Chocolate Cream Pie was delicious as well. What a wonderful day simple, yet lovely. Now it is time to head out for a walk and hopefully burn off a little bit of that meal.

On a side note at the Holland and Angevines tonight the missionaries asked us to share the thing we are most grateful for this year:

Kalinda- Our Baby Girl

Mark- My Beautiful Wife (if you want clarification on this you can ask him)

MARK IS AMAZING!!!!

At least so far. Today Mark wanted to make Pumpkin Pie from scratch for thanksgiving day dinner tomorrow with the Hollands and Angevines. I don't really enjoy Pumpkin Pie nor have any idea how to make it so I left it up to him, however as I was making some homemade buns. I realized he had bought pre made graham cracker pie crust instead of the dough pie crust. I told him there is no way you can bake your pie in those. He was totally devastated until he came up with an idea to make a pie crust from scratch. I have never done one and have no idea how to do one so I left the task up to him. He youtubed it and found a good recipe and directions how to make it and went to work. I must say I am very impressed with the finish product but we will have to see tomorrow if it truly is a work of art.

LOVING LIFE!!!

We bought some treats for Molly and Lily today and the box made them look like these little tiny bones. Well when we pulled them out to give to them they were no tiny little treat. It will probably take them a whole week to chew it all up but they are loving every minute off it.

A Poem by Mark Hunsperger

I was sifting through my Journal tonight when I came across a poem Mark wrote for me this past New Years. We have this wonderful tradition that Mark's family has done all there lives that we will keep every year as well. On New Years Eve they set there shoe out on the table and wait for little elves to come and fill it with goodies during the night. You wake up New Years Day to a shoe filled with many great surprises. This past New Years Day I woke up to some goodies that to be honest I can't remember but this Poem he wrote me will never be forgotten. I want to write it in here today so I have more then one copy of it.

WE HAVE GOTTEN TO KNOW EACH OTHER OVER TIME,
I'M SORRY ABOUT THIS LAME RHYME.
OUR LOVE FOR EACH OTHER HAS REALLY GROWN,
YOU'RE THE BEST FRIEND I'VE EVER KNOWN.
YOUR KINDNESS MEANS THE WORLD TO ME,
YOUR LOVE IS MAKING ME THE BEST I CAN BE.
I WANT TO BE WITH YOU UNTIL WE ARE OLD,
NO MATTER WHERE WE LIVE EVEN IF IT'S COLD.
NOW LET'S ENJOY ANOTHER YEAR
AND CAST OUT ALL OUR FEAR
AND LIVE OUR LIVES WITH NO REGRETS
YOU, ME AND ALL OUR PETS.

29 WEEKS ALMOST!!

So I am not enjoying posting this picture because I hate it but for memory sake and because people keep asking here is a picture.

Seriously though do you ever look at a picture of yourself and say is that honestly what I look like. Then sometimes you say wow is that really how I look why can we look so good in one picture and then terrible in the next. The new hair do honestly looks better then this, just was having a bad morning.

MIDNIGHT SNACK!!

Last night for some weird reason my body was craving fat, fat and more fat. So what did I have in my fridge that would fill those cravings.

Perogies and Onions

Bacon

Chesse and Miracle whip butter mixture



Low and behold what does that make a very unhealthy fatty delicious midnight snack
