Thankful and Merry
Our family has so much to be thankful for during this season of giving and thanks. First of all, we are so thankful for two healthy boys. Camden gave us a bit of a scare when he got sick over Halloween and spent five days at Phoenix Children’s Hospital. It turns out. or they think anyway, he had viral meningitis. It was a long recovery process but he is back to his old self. Our family had our own special Halloween on Veterans Day when about 10 of our friends allowed the boys to come and trick-or-treat.
We celebrated Mark’s 40th birthday, not quite on the cruise we planned, but in style at The Melting Pot.
Our families enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner in Tucson at my mom’s house this year. Mark’s parents drove down and Ken’s daughter Stacy and her son Dakota were all there too. It was very nice, but I forgot the camera, so you will have to take my word for it!
When we got home we put up our new tree and decorated the house. The boys really like putting the train up and the outside decorations.

Does your phone have a camera? I always tend to forget that until too late.
Great stuff! Love this Balch family!

It does, just not a very good one. I did take a few shots with Mark’s phone. It just means we have to get them from his phone to the computer.

Thank goodness, someone in my family writes a blog once in a while. These are always worth while; the boys are growing so rapidly toward teenagers, and are so adorable–those smiles and dimples–no one equals them. I love you all.

An easy way to transfer photos to the computer is to email them to yourself from the phone, then open them on the computer.
Glad you updated your blog. (I know I’m getting a bit lazy on that myself.) You always post such great pictures. Have a great holiday!
