Way behind, so this update might be a bit long!

Okay, I am feeling quite a bit better and bigger so I thought that I would do an update really fast and hopefully not too long! Sarah is such a joy! Oh my goodness, she makes me laugh at least 10 times a day with the funny things that she says. Like today her Potato Head broke, you know the part that holds everything in on the behind. She says to Creed, "Daddy fix Mr. Potato Head, bum is broken!" To which we all just laughed and then fixed Mr. Potato Head's bum. Everything now is very or a bit, or both, such as, "Momma, I am very hungry a bit!" Also, she is always very hungry until you put food in front of her, then she is done. She turned two in October and I was too sick to do anything so on Halloween, the day after her birthday we came up to Murray where she went trick or treating as Nemo, and oh it was very cute! (pictures to come later, I promise!) She figured out right away how the whole thing worked and she received a sucker at the first house and had to show it to everyone at every house. The next day we had a birthday party for her with the Larsens. Elizabeth was wonderful and made her a cake. She loved Thanksgiving and having my whole family at the house. She loves her Aunt Kirsten and Uncle Cameron. Creed took Sarah up to his parents house Thanksgiving night, which allowed me to go and see Kirsten's hair get done for the wedding and to join in the wedding festivities a little more than I would otherwise have gotten to, but that is jumping ahead a bit, so to back up, at the Larsen's Sarah got to help make a gingerbread house, aka eat all the candy, she went bowling and to a movie. Somewhere in there she won a pink fuzzy monkey, which now has to go with us everywhere! She is just such a joy and I love her tons! When we ask her if we are having a boy she says yes and then we say, "what should we call him?" To which she replies, "Jack!" Then if we ask if we are having a girl the answer is yes and when we ask what we should call her she replies, "Jack!" So I guess the baby's name will be Jack.

Creed turned 29 this year! Crazy! Once again I was to sick to even make a cake, so we didn't have any! I was just really thankful for the prompting back in September to get him the new Indiana Jones movie, so that he at least had a present.

Kirsten is married, wahooo! She married Cameron Grant on the day after Thanksgiving so we had the whole Thompson clan at my house including the soon to be newlyweds. It was a ton of fun, although I was still sick and slept and layed around for most of it. It was still fun to chat and catch up and to hang out with everyone. The wedding day went great, as mentioned above I got to be as involved as I could be and it was great! I was really feeling the angels round about when I was able to do as much as I was able to. Kirsten ended up wearing my wedding dress, which made the day a little more special for both of us, and this decision was made the night before the wedding! She was going to wear my grandma's but it had yellowed enough that she couldn't wear it in the temple and so she tried mine on and it fit and she said she felt beautiful so that was it, wedding plans changed the night before. She was married in Bountiful, he is from Centerville. It was a beautiful wedding and they are just a fun and wonderful couple!
