{thanksgiving}

Our hearts are so full when we think on the many blessings we have! Life is challenging in soo many ways, but when looking through the lens of an eternal perspective, we really are so blessed. The gospel of Jesus Christ brings purpose and meaning to our lives, and we really can see His hand in our lives every single day in even the most simple of ways.

Veggie straws {ranch flavor} are Jake's new obsession. And mine!

Our hallway is sometimes more entertaining then inside the house.

Raise your hand if you like Baked Ziti! 

Pies for Thanksgiving---Cherry Cheesecake, Travis' staple, and a pumpkin pie.

Running a 5k in a week with my dad and sister---training has been going as good as it can in freezing temps. Hit over 3 miles in 37 minutes so maybe I'll shave off a couple more minutes and call it good!

Jake loves our Christmas tree with the ornaments and lights. He thought it was fun to try to pull some off. He didn't touch it much after the first day it was up.

Starting to feel more like Christmas! 

Jake's first taste of Jello---more fun to squish between the fingers then to eat though!
