This year I have "resolved" to be more grateful in all that I do. I tend to be a little critical and am tired of that being a dominating characteristic. So in that effort I am here to say I love my life! There are many reasons for this:
1. I have a wonderful family. I am grateful for my 4 sweet, healthy kids. I am grateful for my husband that works incredible hard for us. I am grateful for my extended family- they rock!
2. I have the gospel in my life.
3. I have great friends that I can count on near and far. They also help me to be a better person.
4. I have a home. A place to protect us from the world our safe haven.
So those are just a few of the many things I am blessed with to make my life so wonderful!

She is HERE!
MACI ELIZABETH PITCHER
Maci Elizabeth Pitcher finally graced us with her presence on 12-1-09 at 12:03pm.
She came in at 8lbs 9oz, 21 inches long. She is a big girl and oh so cute! I never would have thought that my baby would have out weighed my others by 2 and 3 pounds! Maci is healthy and such a good baby. The delivery was rough but we got through it with out medication. Maci came out sunny side up and that was not fun for anyone! I will post the whole story later!
We are all just loving her every second!
The kids are so excited to finally have their sister here! Kaiden is even dreaming of her!

Black Friday
I am a little bummed that this baby didn't come last week. Not because I am still pregnant but because my favorite shopping day of the year is coming upon us which means I most likely won't be able to go. I LOVE Black Friday- seriously the crazies, the good deals, the running and grabbing, the shouting and anxiety of getting what you want, the plotting and planning. Oh it just makes me so excited just writing that, oh but wait if this baby comes before that day I PROBABLY won't be able to make it. But oh if this baby isn't here yet yes I will be the overdue crazy pregnant lady running through Target! Seriously so here is hoping that she waits until Friday at noon when the madness is over and I can venture to the hospital with all my good deals neatly stashed away! For all out there that enjoy Black Friday like I do- elbow a little extra hard just for me!

Our Halloween Happenings
We had a great week of Halloween. My mom is so cute she did a Halloween dinner for us and it was super cute and gross. She made mummies , head stones, coagulated blood with veins, roast, eyes and juice, and more. It was so fun and tasty!! The kids loved the eyeballs. My dad was the best when he chowed down on his coagulated blood and veins (red jello with worms) it was just the perfect texture to gross anyone out. I love my mom because she puts so much work into all the different holidays- when I grow up I want to be just like her.
We also enjoyed a chilly and rainy afternoon at Cornbellies. The kids loved the corn maze and wrestling with the corn stalks. It was fun to hang out with just us and spend sometime together.
Justin rode the mechanical bull. He did pretty good but I am glad that he is no cowboy!
The kids loved the slides. I think Justin did too!
My pirate crew! They were all so cute. It is always a bit stressful trying to get everyone fed and in their costumes all the while the doorbell keeps ringing but it was super fun. My fam came over and had award winning chili, games, and fun. It was a great night to trick or treat the weather was SO nice!
This is Brody my nephew (Clay's baby) is he not the cutest chubby baby monster ever. He also had is monster walk down! We just love having him around he is SO much fun! He went trick or treating with the kids for a few houses and then was done but oh so cute!!!
