A Little Late . . .

But still thankful!

We had a lovely Thanksgiving dinner at Drew's aunt's house this year.  Delicious cornbread stuffing was the highlight for me!!

Drew's cousin came with her 8 month old twin girls so there were even babies to snuggle!

 

Jude loved saying "Happy Turkey Day!"

 

 I'm so thankful that Drew and I have families that get along so well.  It would awful to have to split the holidays between my side and his side.

All the family together drinking wine is a much better solution!!

 

 Jude ate his weight in olives.  I have vivid memories of playing under my Nana's big oak table doing the same thing.

 

 Spent some of the weekend at the tire shop after I got a flat tire.  Here is Ellie striking a diva pose!

 

Christmas traditions are in full swing around here. 

This year we are doing activities in their advent calendar vs. candy. 

So far here is the run-down

Dec 1st - Bring out Grapes our Elf on the Shelf and get our Christmas tree

Dec 2nd - Wear new Christmas jammies and watch Elf

Today - Drink hot cocoa and listen to The Grinch on record

Tomorrow's agenda - Decorate Christmas cookies.

 

It's the most wonderful time of the year!!
