My THANKFUL list......

Man... I have so many amazing things to be thankful for. I really am so happy with life. I think as I've gotten older, I started to realize the simplest things can make me happy. Getting a coke and watching the girls at the park, reading a good book, listening to my ipod while I do the laundry.
Here are few other things that make my day....


-FAMILY!!!!
-FRIENDS
-SEASON & NATURE
-BEING AWARE OF LIFE & HOW I FIT IN IT
-FEELING A CONNECTION WITH GOD
-MUSIC
-FOOD
-LOVE

Happy THANKSGIVING everyone!
I'm so grateful for each of you in my life!

yahoo!!! I get to go see this flick later tonight... (midnight with my fav girls!) I'm also having a neighborhood party at my house, packing for a trip and cooking a million dessert for the party...

so hopefully I'll make it through this night..

Edward please don't disappoint... is all I have to say. I'm not super happy about the guy they cast for Edward. I guess we'll see. I'm hoping he won't bug me the whole show.. you'll have to tell me what you thought (those that go see it)

my baby turns 2 today.....

I feel like this can not be real. How can Savannah possibly be two years old? Where has the time gone? I wish I could push the "slow down" button on life and have my girls grow up just a little bit slower. It's all passing me by too fast.

We hope you have the Best day sweetheart!

We love you !

I'll post more pics of her big day tomorrow.

another sad post....

soo, here we go with another sad post... One of my best friends- Brooke is moving far away. I kept telling myself it wasn't going to happen.. and this last month it did. I'm really happy for her family. I know they will love it in Cali.. but it will be hard to see them go. They've been such fun neighbors. Brooke, THANKS for being such great friend!

I'm going to miss talking to you everyday!

Brooke, Me, Nicole

These girls planned a fun night for my b-day.

They made my fav dessert and we watch videos and soaked our feet.

It was such a fun night. thank you!

Izzy going to lose her best friend too..

sadness....

I'm a little sad lately because my photography class has come to an end. It has been such a fun break and something I really looked forward to every week. Here are some of the photos I took for my final critique. I still need a ton of practice and feel like there is so much more that I still don't know. The basics that I have learned help me realize that I LOVE taking photos and watching them come to life. These were taken up Provo Canyon on our class field trip.

What is going to happen?

Does anyone else feel weird about this election?

When I went to vote this morning I got this uneasy/yucky feeling. I don't like either one of these candidates. I don't totally agree with one or the other. It's crazy to me that one of them is going to be running our country in a few short months.

I put my vote in.. I guess that's all I can do besides pray for our country.

Halloween 2008

Here is our annual Hancock Family Halloween Party.

I love this party because everyone keeps their costume a surprise until we get there.. I couldn't stop laughing all night. Ryan is the Dwight bobble head in the back. ha ha ha

Matt & Linz announced they were expecting their 3rd baby!!! We all screamed for about 5 minutes straight.. ahhhh We are all so excited for them.

All the cousins had so much fun together!

Mari & Sophie

Izzy was a witch this year.

Here she is holding a card G & G Konold sent.


Sophia was a fairy princess.




Savannah was the same thing... and yes this is her best smile...
