It's been a cool and rainy day today. It's been darker outside and a perfect day for dim lighting and candles! We are on Thanksgiving Break all week! I am already thoroughly enjoying the break! I still have plans to work on school things myself to hopefully get ahead before we start back in next Monday. But it will be on my own time. We are doing some good cleaning this week as well. Aside from the cleaning and normal everyday chores that have to be done, we're going to take it easy. Each evening this week one of the channels on TV is airing Christmas movies at 9pm. My older daughter is excited that she gets to stay up this week and watch Christmas movies with Mommy.
We are planning our 2nd official family Thanksgiving for Wednesday. Last year, we began our own family Thanksgiving tradition at home and we are looking forward to that this week! Tomorrow, my husband will be making his favorite fruit salad. My hubby made the turkey last year and it turned out wonderful. So guess who gets to make it this year??? That's right - my hubby. He'll prep the turkey and get it in the oven tomorrow night. Then Wednesday we'll make the rest of the dishes for our meal and have our Thanksgiving feast while watching some of our favorite Christmas movies.
Then Thursday morning, we'll be celebrating Thanksgiving together with my whole family. I'm looking forward to it!
Well, I thought I'd work on this post during a commercial. And now the Christmas movie we're watching is back on. |
