So much to be thankful for

Once again I am late on my Thanksgiving post, as usual.  But we had such a nice Thanksgiving I had to share about it, no matter how late it is. 

Wednesday night I got a night out with my girlfriends to see a local band play.  It was so much fun and a very much needed night out. 

On Thanksgiving day we watched the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade before we went to my brother-in-law and sister-in-law's house for lunch.  It was nice to be somewhere different for a change and Jay and Jess have a beautiful home in Jackson.  We had the traditional Thanksgiving lunch, with the traditional desserts.  I ate wayyy too much but it was all so delicious it was hard not to stop stuffing my face.  We were able to FaceTime with Chris and Kelsey who were not able to make it from St. Louis and we spoke with Whitney from Seattle on the phone.  All in all, it ended up being a good day and we were exhausted!

Friday night E and I took the girls to see "Rise of the Guardians".  It was Haidyn's first official movie theatre experience and she did surprisingly well.  She didn't sit the whole time but she wasn't running up and down the aisles and talking loudly.  Always a plus with a 2-year-old.  It was a super cute movie and we all thoroughly enjoyed it.  So glad we decided to go! 

We have so much to be thankful this year that it was easy to just enjoy ourselves and take it all in.  We have been so blessed with good health, wonderful friends and family and God continues to show us many more blessings every day.  We hope all of you were reminded of how much you have to be thankful for and know that we are thankful for all of you as well!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING (late) and MERRY CHRISTMAS SOON!
