Thanksgiving and other plans

We had a good Thanksgiving. Even though I worked, we went to Alden's Aunt Sandy's house in Long Beach for dinner. Two of his cousins were there and we had a fun time. They even sent us home with leftovers. Yum! Then on Friday, we set up our Christmas tree and all the decorations. This year we decided to have only snowmen on our tree and it turned out so cute. I love snowmen and most of the ornaments that I have are snowmen (all of them were given to me by my mom over the years). We also added a few shiny balls to the tree. Our apartment looks very festive and even the under the tree is filled with wrapped presents. I am waiting for a few gifts to come in the mail and then I will be all finished. Yeah!

This weekend we are going to Arizona. We are picking up our old mattress to take back to Idaho. Jack was nice enough to store it for us for the past two years or so. Also, it is Jaren's third birthday (Alden's nephew) on the 10th and they are planning a party for him on Saturday. So that should be fun, helping with 12 extra kids for the party. Maybe not so much fun as crazy!

Until next time...
