Aliza's Thanksgiving Feast

Last Friday Aliza's preschool had a Thanksgiving Feast. Parents were invited to come and have lunch with the kids as well. My mom is in town for Thanksgiving so we went over for lunch. Aliza was so excited to see grandma there that day. Can you believe we were the only parents there! I felt bad for the teachers, they had done a lot of hard work and we were the only ones who came. All the kids looked so cute, some were dressed as pilgrims and others were indians. They all had fun and the food was great!

Election Drama

Well unfortunately my choice for President, John McCain did not win, I am a little scared about what the future holds! I am very excited that Prop 8 in California passed. It was a proposition to the state constitution to keep marriage between a man and woman. Several members of my family worked very hard to be sure it passed. It was sad to see the way the church came under attack out there though by the opponents to the proposition.
Anyway enough of that - On election day the kids came with us to go vote, Ben was very excited because they were learning about the election and voting at school. By the way in their little election at school John McCain won! Today after school Ben came home and told me they were having an election in his class to pick a president and he gave a speech here is what he told me he said:
I would be a good President because I would be nice to everyone
and help everyone. If someone was down I would help them up,
that is why I would be good.
How cute is that! I didn't even now they were doing this, so he says he hopes he wins.

One Question

How much is too much???


By the way in case you are concerned they have hardly made a dent in the candy, they only get to have some occasionally!
