Thanksgiving







Ok so I know it has been a while... but thanks to my cute co-worker Darcie I decided to try my hardest to keep this blog thing up!
Thanksgiving this year was great! I got to sleep in thanks to Nana, and when I woke up we made cookies and pies... MMMMM. We all went over to my Aunt Stacy's for dinner and had such a good time with the family. We went around the room and stated what we were thankful for and it was really sweet to hear what everyone was grateful for. Mostly that grandpa Bob had just been released from the hospital and for our family and friends we love so much. Ashton was grateful for his parents (me)and his family. It was so sweet and I didn't even tell him what to say. Daniel and his sisters came with us too, it was so nice to have them there.
Then later that night we went to my Aunt Kathleen's house for a second dinner... you can never eat too much turkey dinner. We enjoyed all the company and good vibes that came along with.
Once we left I took Ashton home and put his to sleep and headed out for some Midnight shopping. BIG mistake! We first went to Toys R Us and it was a mess. There were lines around the entire store, not all the registers were open, and you couldn't even get into the electronics because it was blocked off??? Weird I know, so we left. Then we headed to Wal-Mart to fight the crowds there... to our surprise there wasn't any crowd to fight off! It was nice and we shopped until about 5am then I crashed!
The next morning was bitter-sweet but all in all Thanksgiving was great and I am so blessed to have such an amazing and loving family!

Yea Ann! It's it about time. I love seeing pictures of cute Ashton (and you!). Good for you on shopping until 5 am... I never would've lasted that long!
