First of all our Thanksgiving was pretty wonderful besides the fact that Julia wasn't there. We had lots of food Turkey, Stuffing, Gravey, Butternut Squash, Mashed potatoes, Sweet Potatoes, Bisquits, Corn, and TONS of pies. We were at my mothers and had a great day. Michael joined us around noon time and my dad got home around 1pm with my brothers and their kids because they went to a football game.
Anyways i don't feel like typing everything else going on now so Happy Belated Thanksgiving everyone.

My BABY is going to be 4!
In just 11 short days my baby is going to be 4! I have already started getting her a few things for her birthday. I got her the barbie swan lake movie, beauty and the beast platinum edition, tinkerbell dvd, and thumbelina. She already opened her barbie movie tonight. Tonight for supper we had something super easy and super quick pb&jelly sanwiches on wheat bread with cantaloupe and some yogurt.. kids love things like that. Tomorrow i am probably going to do porkchops with potatoe salad and veggies. Right now Julia is sitting right next to me as i type this and Clarissa is still eating. We are gonna do a tubby in a little while and then bedtime for the kids and cleaning time for me.
I have no clue yet what is going on this weekend. The budget isn't looking good. So maybe to the park we'll go. That's what we did today food shopping and then the park. Kids always love the park. I've been thinking alot about Christmas coming up and how tight money is going to be. I think we'll just be doing stockings, like a big thing each, and several smaller things. Julia has everything under the sun.. she has tons of clothes, coats, shoes, so many toys they don't even play with same with Clarissa. I just picked up Julia 2 more pairs of jeans at the childrens place the other day and Clarissa we just went shopping for yesterday at old navy so the girls are good they just need winter boots and Clarissa needs hats/gloves. But other than that i have no idea what else to get 2 lil ones that already have everything i can imagine lol. I can get them anything that takes up to much room as we don't have much storage any ideas? haha

In the spirit of AMERICA
The country is pleased to announce our new president Barack Obama. I am proud of myself this year i believe in the ability to build America back up to where it once was. Which is why i got my butt out to vote and made people know what my beliefs were and why, i convinced people to vote even if it was for McCain. I made my views known that is something that i can boast about. God, i love being an American. Some may think this election was a given or a handout and some may believe that it was a mistake to put Barack Obama into office. Whether you are Republican or Democrat both candidates fought for 2 years through campaigns to talk to the American people and make their capabilities and concerns known. Many Americans voiced their opinions at these rallys whether it was on the Republican side or Democraic side. What we all must remember is we all have ONE thing in common and that is our love for America. With that said, i believe in a better tomorrow, i believe in change, i believe in America getting back to where it once was when making a living was a little easier. Every American deserves a new beginning and this is that time.
I do not for one moment think Obama will do bad for this country. Now im not going to say everything is going to be perfect because it won't there will always be concerns or issues or even crisis's that he may be not able to solve at that time. But you better believe he will do everything in his power to make sure Americans can live a happy and financially stable life & that our children to not have to grow up in the time of depression and instability in the country right now. I believe our ancestors fought for us and now we have to fight for our future.. (children or even grandchildren) Many have made some valid points but history is in the making. We need CHANGE and that is why Barack Obama was elected president of the United States. He believes in change and yes he believes in helping the middle class families that just cant not make it during these hard times. Many things are considered when voting for im sure just about everyone we all have our concerns with every candidate noone is perfect and if someone is perfect i myself would be scared. I believe this country has come a long way since the civil wars and all and still has a long way to go. But i do believe with Obama in office that things will start to get better and not worse. Many Americans want their troops home, people want to be able to live again. Not work to live paycheck to paycheck,. which is what many American's are now doing because they cannot afford the economy the way it is. I have always had hope for America even through 9/11 and i will continue to have hope for America. Regardless of our racial, financial, or religious differences we are all brought together as American's to elect our new president that will be leading our way through the country in the coming years. That change has come and it has come now. This is our moment in history.
Our national anthem
Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight,O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there.O say, does that star-spangled banner yet waveO'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore dimly seen thro' the mists of the deep,Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream:'Tis the star-spangled banner: O, long may it waveO'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly sworeThat the havoc of war and the battle's confusionA home and a country should leave us no more?Their blood has wash'd out their foul footsteps' pollution.No refuge could save the hireling and slaveFrom the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave:And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth waveO'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
O, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand,Between their lov'd homes and the war's desolation;Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued landPraise the Pow'r that hath made and preserv'd us a nation!Then conquer we must, when our cause is just,And this be our motto: "In God is our trust"And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall waveO'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
