POTATOES

Thanksgiving was a great day for Ella because she got some bites of her first solid food... POTATOES! She was very confused by it, didn't like it, tried to throw it up, and smiled the whole time while eating it. She has since eaten some sweet potatoes too. She had the same kind of feelings toward sweet potatoes as regular potatoes, but is starting to enjoy it. It has been fun watching her reactions towards new things, but the second time she has eaten it she has loved it. It will be interesting to watch her try more new foods.

Gobble, Gobble... Happy Thanksgiving!

For the last two years Ernie, Mylie, and I have traveled to New Castle to visit with Ernie's family for the long Thanksgiving holiday. This year was no different (minus Mylie staying back because it was too cold) It has become a welcomed tradition for our family with lots of relaxation, fun memories, and LOTS of good food. This year we were able to share it with Ella. We introduced her to the horses, played with Uncle Erik, and laughed with Grandma and Grandpa. We look forward to many more holidays together. Thank you to my in-laws for opening their home and making us feel welcome. We are VERY thankful for all of you. We LOVE the Ranch and all that it brings.















We did some shooting this year too... SO much fun! Amanda was scared, Erik was scary, and Ernie did well and I beat the pants off Ernie! Let's just say I have a knack for shooting. I fit right into the Krauth family.












Happy Thanksgiving from the Krauths!

thankful

Loving life right now. There are just so many things to be thankful for. My daughter, my wife, my job, my family, my friends, my God, and life. Just thought I would share my thoughts.
