That’s what this past week has been full of. Nothing I want to get into cause it’s not worth the effort to write about but it’s why I haven’t blogged in a few days.
Today was Ella’s b-day and we went and visited her this morning. She was so excited about her birthday it was the cutest thing ever. I came home so Cooper could have his nap but I think all the excitement this morning has him still a bit wired. Later I have to go grocery shopping for all the thanksgiving dinner things we’ll be having. I’m so excited. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite celebrations. We’re having hubby’s family here on Saturday and then going to my aunt’s on Sunday. I’ll be doing stuffing on my own for the first time and maybe even a pumkin pie. At my aunt’s, my family always goes on a nice long walk after dinner and I just love walking with the crunch of colored leaves underneath my feet. We always get some really great pictures too. The men usually stay behind and nap and us women just gab away while walking. This weekend is supposed to be gorgous too so it’s going to be great.
We also do a name draw (kind of like Kris Kringle) on both sides of our family for christmas which gets me really excited too because it’s like being given the ok to start your christmas shopping. I’ve been feeling quite crafty lately so for hubby’s family I made little christmas tree ornaments with name tags attached to them so everyone has a little keep sake. Just to get everyone in the mood.
Well I’m off now to write some letters. hope everyone is having a great week.
