So, I'm a little late with my Thanksgiving post, oh well...you know me, that's how I roll...he! he!

We had the best Thanksgiving yet....laid back and relaxing. It was the first year since Frank and I have been together that we didn't have 3 different places to run off to. Wednesday we had TGiving Dinner with his mom and his brother's family. We also did Christmas with them since we wouldn't be seeing them again for Christmas.
On Thursday, we went to my mom's for dinner. It was nice to be able to take our time and actually visit at both dinners. Frank and I actually snuck off Thursday evening to do a little shopping while the kids stayed with my mom. Then, later that night, the girls in the family had more shopping plans. We thought it'd be a good idea to go shopping that night at midnight!! HA! We left the kids with Ge Ge to have a sleep over and we (me, Tiff and Sharon) went out for a very short shopping trip. We got intimidated by the crazy crowds so went back back to moms for a sleep over. It turned out to be a lot of fun. Tiff and I stayed up for hours telling stories, laughing and scaring each other. Brinlee had her 1st sleepover and night away from Mommy....little did she know I was in the room next to her. I still count it as a sleep over, though :-) Tiff and I got up bright and early and finally accomplished some shopping.
this is as good as it gets with the 4 of us ;-)
I feel so incredibly lucky and blessed. I have so much to be thankful for, I don't even know where to start. I have the most amazing and understanding husband ever. He is my best friend and I don't know what I'd do without him. I have two HEALTHY children that makes my world go 'round...they are my everything! My family is my rock and they are always there for me. I have my health, a warm home, plenty of food to eat and lots of love!! What more could I ask for? Thank you, Jesus for this life you have given to me!!

my girl loves to pose
and my boy loves to eat...
We didn't realize it until the next morning, but apparently Santa or one of his elves dropped off a little package for the kids that night! It was wrapped lying on the front porch!!! A new addition ot our family....MAX, The Elf on the Shelf!
