Thanksgiving Fun
We had a great Thanksgiving, with such great family time together. Wednesday, Mom and I went shopping all day at Lenox, which was so fun. There was hardly a soul there (everyone must have been cooking - Mom did lots early and then most on Thursday!), and we had a blast. We met Jacob for lunch at California Pizza Kitchen, which was so fun. Thursday, we went to my family's for a great lunch. My brother and his wife were there, and we had a blast! Issa loved eating all the "titi" (chicken/turkey!), and had fun with her uncle and aunt. Then Friday morning, we got up and went to the Allbrittons (live in Cumming). It was fun - all of his family was there, and Nanny was too! (Issa is named after Nanny) We got home Friday night, and got our tree on Saturday morning. We got all of our Christmas decorations out on Saturday and had a great rest of the weekend together. Jake's grandmother had a stomach virus on Thursday; by Sunday night, Issa and I both had it! It was rough, and I'm thankful for my Mom for her help during it. Brent and Rachel got here last night - our flight to Utah (skiing - Rachel and I will be shopping though) was supposed to be this AM at 6. Rachel and I switched ours to TOMORROW at 2, b/c I was too sick still. So we'll be heading out tomorrow for a long weekend. My Mom/Dad will have Issa. I'll miss her to pieces, but will have so much fun with Brent and Rachel. Jake and Brent have been skiing all day and LOVING it. They just got two more feet of fresh snow!

Be Thankful!
What a wonderful week. I am thankful this morning for time with my daughter, who at 18 months old is so much fun I can hardly stand it. I only had to work Monday and Tuesday of this week (gotta love the school system's hours!) , and this morning has been so nice. Filled with hot cocoa, the Today show, and a sweet toddler running over to me with periodic "Mommy!"s.
And, I am pregnant - Yep! Three months, and expecting another miracle on June 5th. My sister-in-law is pregnant also, and four weeks ahead of me. What a wonderful time of year to experience it together. Grab loved ones near, and tell them how you love them. We all have so many things to be thankful for!
