Such a special week down south for thanksgiving; full of sweet memories and fun.

What a fun and full week with family!!! Wednesday we went to the park with papa, visited grammy great, and visited nani's kindergarten class. The boys loved making native American head-dresses right alongside the kindergarteners and playing with them for free choose. That night was date night for Dave and I. Thursday was a busy day buying some food for our thanksgiving feast, baking and cooking, and then celebrating with family. Mass was beautiful. People went up and shared what they were thankful for. I had a little tear fest during that. We went home and made a thankful wall and said a special thanksgiving blessing before our meal. The boys loved helping nani in the kitchen. That night was so special having 8 full hours of just girl time with my mom and sisters black Friday shopping (yes we're crazy, but I would do it all over again if it meant having that much time with my sisters and mom). I finished my Christmas shopping and everything was half off. So many good deals, but better than that were the good laughs and the best time we had spending time together while the boys had a movie night and slept. We giggled till the wee hours of the morning. Friday we visited santa with my sisters while dave and noah napped in the car, then had a fun night out while the boys had a movie night with nani and papa. Saturday was a photo shoot and a long drive home...but oh what a week of memories and fun.
Hope everyone had a blessed thanksgiving with family!!!
today it is raining outside and it is cozy inside; enjoying my new salt city evergreen scented candle burning with a warm fresh baked winter bread cooling and a new Rachel ray recipe brewing in the crock pot. I'm excited for our evening family walks looking at Christmas lights!!
dove into my advent book yesterday, the greatest gift, by ann voskamp, and our family advent one is in the mail. Oh how I love advent!! Christmas is coming....
what's on your Christmas queue? These two songs are really moving.
blessings to you this Advent season.
