Merry Christmas Hoekstra Family

Tis the Season for Holiday Parties. Tonight we celebrated Christmas with the Hoekstra family. It is amazing how much more fun the girls are this year compared to last year! They have so much fun playing with their cousins and opening gifts. It is so much fun to watch them grow into little girls.

More Turkey???

Who wouldn't want to have two Thanksgiving dinners? Sign me up! This evening we were able to have Thanksgiving dinner with Scot's family. It was great to catch up with everyone. Alyhsa LOVED Grandma's mashed potatoes. I think she had 4 helpings. That's my girl!! I think Skylar had more fun talking than eating this time around. It was perfect to have two turkey dinners because I need all the fuel I can get for my black Friday shopping. This year it starts at 9:30 and hopefully goes till 9:00 the next morning. Let the fun begin!!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!! I am so blessed and have MANY things to be thankful for! The number one thing I am thankful for is my family. God has blessed me with a wonderful husband and two beautiful girls. They are the love of my life! This afternoon we celebrated Thanksgiving with my family. It was great to pig out on turkey and mashed potatoes. Here is the kids table. The girls did fantastic eating at their own table with their cousins, Eli and Gwen. So much food, such little space on our plates.

You Will be Missed....

Today, my Grandpa DeVree went home to be with the Lord. Or as he told us in the hospital, he will be going to a new church!!!
I am thankful I was able to say goodbye before the Lord took him. I am also thankful for the many, happy memories I have of my Grandfather. He will be missed!!!

Congrats to Scott and Gina!!

Congratulations to the newlyweds, Scott and Gina Sloothaak. Don't they make a cute couple?? Scot and I in the limo. Jeff and Kelly Mike and Erin
