WOW....that was fast


Yikes, an entire month has already gone by!?! Thanksgiving was a success, as I hosted it at our home for the first time. With a small amount of guideance from my mom, it went really well. Mike was unable to be home, as he was onthe road...AGAIN...but we made it through with my family, grandpa, aunt and uncle. Grant LOVES turkey...in fact, he asked for it again tonight as I was tucking him in! The day after brought ridiculous shopping at 500 at Toys R Us, which was really good for nothing but laughing at the morons who take things ENTIRELY too seriously! Then it was off to a few more stores for some great bargains! Grant slept in with my dad so he did not have to brave the weather or the chaos! We then went tree hunting with Mike and our neighbors. It has become ritual to tree hunt with the Dales, so we had at it again this year. Grant thought it was so fun to run around and hide in the trees from mom and dad....not so fun for us when it's 12 degrees outside. Needless to say, we found the perfect tree and it is decorated and ready for gifts!! Grant is also obsessed with Christmas lights...he feels the need to scream Christmas Lights at the top of his lungs every time we see them-he has to make sure I see them too! Visits to Santa and much more to come! Hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday! M+S+G
