One of the many reasons I love this time of year is because with each ending comes an exciting new beginning; like with halloweens end, comes thanksgiving; with thanksgivings end comes the best-Christmas.
Our thanksgiving was not how we expected it-but i think it was perfect. We had originally thought that we were going to go home, but the cards didnt fall there. We enjoyed Hillary's visit, but even after she left we still enjoyed it. It was like a little second honeymoon. We just enjoyed our time to be us, watching movies, reading books, going on walks and talking. On thanksgiving day we made our very own feast; Lester did the turkey and I did well-everything else, with his help of course. Then our friends Catherine and Josh called us and they said that the roads were to bad and they were wondering if they could join us. It was great! She helped me finish the apple pie and also brought a delicious chocolate walnut tart. After dinner, our husbands vegged on the floor in food comas, while Catherine and I just talked, laughed and watched elf.
So overall, this break was a dream come true. It reminds us to stop and be grateful for the love we have in our lives, and the many blessing we have in life. So goodbye thanksgiving, hello christmas!
