Coloring Before Breakfast!

Sunday morning we finished up with Christmas pictures.... out to breakfast we went! Trying to keep Emory preoccupied we started to color while waiting for breakfast. Emory just might follow in her daddy's footstep and love art! Happy December!

Found this quote... this explains me all over right now!!!

Because you put your heart into making choices for your family. Because sometimes just saving a little, means a lot. Because sometimes saving a lot means saving your sanity. Because the small things really are the big things and sometimes lots of small things add up to a shopping cart full of big savings that make you smile from the inside out. Because times are tight and finding a bargain is a great thing. Because sharing a bargain is the best!Because what you didn't spend, you saved, amen!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Shawn, Emory and I will be out for the Thanksgiving Holiday. We are heading up to Atchison, Kansas on Thursday, plaza lights Thursday evening, shopping on Friday (see how many bargins I can score), catch up on some movies and spend time with family. I am so very thankful that the Lord as provided for me and my family. Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Love you, The Kiehl Family
