Holiday Recap

It's hard to believe that the long awaited Thanksgiving holiday has come and gone so quickly. B and I started our holiday week/weekend with an official Anniversary Celebration Day on Tuesday. (2 days early) We dropped the munchkin off for the day, and we were off! We saw Stranger Than Fiction (you seen it? thoughts?) with Will Ferrill. After that, we went down and wandered around the Old Market downtown. We then went to "the best Italian restaurant in O". (Not quite as impressive after living on The Hill in St. Louis)

Wednesday was day 1 with my parents. N had a great time playing with both his grandma and grandpa. B and Dad went for a run together, and seemed to really bond over the topic of running. We all went to a nearby park/lake in the afternoon. Maggie did some swimming, and N did some playground playing. He absolutely loved the swing!

Thursday was Turkey Day (and anniversary day) of course. It was a take it easy kind of day since everyone seemed to have some type of ailment or another.The meal was good though and enjoyed by everyone. Even N had baby food turkey, sweet potato, and applesauce.

Friday I made a huge mistake. I agreed to go shopping with Mom. If Mom has a specific thing she is shopping for it fine, but NEVER, and I mean NEVER, go aimless shopping with Mom! We were gone for hours!!!! We also began to put up the Christmas decorations. A 9 ft. tree is huge!!! (but beautiful)

Saturday was the sad day. Mom and Dad had to leave and head back home. It was hard to say good bye just as your getting use to having them around. I loved getting to see them and N interact with eachother. How cute! It's a long time before we see them again in March, but I'm already counting down!
