Thanksgiving






We had a nice Thanksgiving this year with Amber and Kurt and his family who were visiting. The girls behaved themselves (which was a nice little gift to us,) and the whole evening was relaxing. We ate a gourmet meal, thanks to everyone there.

Although we were away from family, there was still a lot to be grateful for. Being able to sit down to a delicious meal in a warm home surrounded by friends is a blessing that is often forgotten in the rush of the holiday season. My personal goal for this Christmastime is to try to pay attention to BIG-scale blessings like those while also trying to focus on day-to-day happiness.

My mother in law bought it at Marshalls last year. But who needs it when you are a crafty mom that sews adorable holiday dresses??? You are amazing!
