Happy Thanksgiving!

(Aunt Jill and the boys and cousins!)

We loved having all the Sanderson's at our house for Thanksgiving this year! Scott's Mom and Dad, and both his brothers and their families! And as always - loved having some of Scott's players get to join us too! Brandon, Zach, Adnon and Jordan...just feels like part of the family!

Somedays we forget
To look around us
Somedays we can't see
The joy that surrounds us
So caught up inside ourselves
We take when we should give.

So for today we pray for
What we know can be.
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see.
It's up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving from the Sandersons!

Must have been wild angels....watching over Clint today!

Obviously you can't have four boys without a "few" trips to the emergency room, and our visit to the farm this weekend ended sooner than expected as we headed back to the ER with Clint and his two friends! Know God was watching over them - as they were so very fortunate to escape with nothing more than bumps and bruises...and well, Clint's broken rib, and poor Gracen's broken wrist! After hearing from others about their 4-wheeler accidents, I know these three were very lucky! We learned valuable safety lessons...always wear your helmet!...Stay on the path!...and slow down! And I learned - don't try and swing your dirt bike around too fast or you'll go flying over the handle bars! :) Have to borrow a line from Martina's song..."Must have been wild angels, watching over you and me!"

The day wasn't all bad! Everyone did get to spend most of it enjoying the beautiful weather, playing in the woods and wading in the creek...hanging out with some wonderful friends. We even talked Scott into coming out of the gym for a little bit of fresh air! (Don't you just know, the day we get him out there is the day it ends with way more drama than he was up for!) I had tried to tell him it would be a fun, relaxing day! Guess he won't be falling for that one any more! :)








Even Bogie and Birdie got in on a little farm time!

Welcome to November!

Please, Please, Please make time slow down! October seems to have disappeared before I could even blink, and now that I am actually trying to get it all on the blog, I can't believe how much goes on in four weeks! Today was the first day of what looks to be like an unbelievably beautiful fall week, and Garrett, Grant and I spent the afternoon enjoying every minute of it with our friends, the Arney's, on their farm. (Clint spent the weekend in Knoxville at the UT/South Carolina game with friends - Scott has disappeared into the wonderful world of Division I basketball - and Carter decided to play guitars with friends while he is still on limited activity due to his back.) I hated that I couldn't have all my boys with me, but I guess this is what happens as they all get older! Needless to say, we managed to have a blast and I continue to be amazed at the generosity of our friends who include us in their adventures. Thank you, Cammy and Tim!

Me and my precious friend, Ian!



Timmy, Garrett, Ian and Grant



The boys looking for firewood to start a major bonfire!







"A river runs through it..."



No day in the woods with Garrett and his friends is complete without a major "air-soft" war. Today was no exception! And this battle came complete with four-wheelers, woods and rock piles!

Me on my way to shoot a deer, and Tim convinced it was only gonna take one bullet! HA! Well, maybe it would have if we had seen one! I did, however, manage to kill a tree...says Garrett!



By the time I got back from tromping through the woods, these little yum-yums had already killed one! No fair!






Man, what an awesome day!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

The Sanderson/Sears version of Thriller!...don't ask!

Keith Urban!

Don't you love it when you just happen to be at the right place, at the right time?! Like pulling into a parking lot just in time to see a free Keith Urban concert! One my friends and her little boy were there, and after mentioning to Keith that Parker would be singing one of his songs in an upcoming talent show, Keith invited him to come up on stage and sing with him! I love Nashville! (You can see his performance by checking it out on YouTube!
