I feel like I'm getting so behind with this blog. No wonder I don't keep a journal. Just a little bit to catch up...we went to Becky and Jason's for Thanksgiving with my family this year. It was so nice to get away for a change. We usually do Thanksgiving at our house and I love to have everyone here and to do all the cooking (I'm seriously way to anal about cooking the turkey, it's a big problem I have), but it was nice to get out of town and just get to help out this time. We needed a little break and it was so fun to finally see Becky's house. We went to the planetarium with everyone and then to see the lights. It was the night they lit them so it was a zoo, but still so pretty and the kids loved it. Me and Eli even got away for an afternoon to do a little Christmas shopping so that was an extra bonus. I would post pictures but I didn't take any. Becky has a zillion on her camera so when she posts them I'll steal them over and sneak them in. Now for Christmas...I have been ready for the holidays this year since it first snowed so I was so excited to finally get the decorations up. The kids loved helping. Our poor tree was all weighed down in the back from the heaping pile of ornaments Zach wanted to put all in the same place. They do such a good job. We got our tree from my dad's yard this year. It is so big and pretty, we really lucked out! With decorations up, and most of the shopping done we are ready to enjoy the rest of the season!
