That night Katie went to sleep early, but Mason was so excited he could not sleep. He actually said, "I don't know how I am going to go to sleep."

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a little different this year. I missed not seeing everyone. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I am thankful for my family. I hope they all know how much I love them. Life is to short not to spend time with people you love. Thank you Zak for loving me. Thank you Zak for letting me stay home with our kids everyday. Thank you Zak for working hard for our family. Thank you to my kids for being such great kids and fighting over who gets to sit on my lap (the fighting drives me crazy but I love it). Thank you to my sister Jen for calling me every morning and just being you. Thank you Steve and Cathy for everything you do for us. Thank you Mom for always caring about us. Thank you Dad for calling me this week. Thank you to all my family and friends for caring enough to look at my blog. I love you all.



Breakfast at my Mom's. Zak's favorite meal.

Our Cute family

Dinner at the Zabriskie's. We picked up Grandma Mac and brought her to dinner. I hope she enjoyed getting out of that place for a couple hours. She is a great lady!

Hawaii

Here are a few pictures from our Anniversary trip to Maui!!! We had so much fun, I wish we could go back and take the kids. I have about 200 pictures of sunsets, I love them, they change so much. I will probably add more later.

The kids souvenirs.

Too cute!

Halloween pics!!!

Halloween is such a fun time! I feel like the month of October went by so fast (could have been because I was in Hawaii for a week). I will post those pictures later. I love all the things there are to do in the month of October. We went to Gardner Village to check out the witches, we also went to Cornbelly's corn maze, Mason had a costume parade at school and bowling, and my favorite thing is the Zabriskie Halloween Party. I love to see all the fun costumes and just get together with friends and family. Here are a few pics from our fun festivities....
