I know I say the same thing every year but it is the truth... my most favorite holiday is Thanksgiving. And not just because it is the same time as my birthday either. It is my favorite because it is a time to just reflect and rejoice on all that I have been given and the things I've been blessed with. Plus it gives me the opportunity to see how I can do the same for others. I love that it is not a time I have to worry about what I'm going to buy for someone else. To top it all off this also happens to be my favorite time of year as well, and I so enjoy being somewhere that I can see all the amazing leaves and
feel the seasons change.
I happened to turn the big 30 on Thanksgiving day this year and the best thing about it is that Kev was able to come home and we spent it together as a family. We had a yummy dinner with friends, pumpkin pie for my b-day cake, and then I did some early bird (11:30pm Thursday night) Black Friday shopping. We then finished the short weekend off with family pictures and picking out a Christmas tree. It sure was a busy weekend and went way to fast but it was one more weekend closer to Kev coming home. Here is a preview of the Christmas tree and some of our family pictures.

Thank you Katie! I feel so much better getting to see you all. I love your family pictures. You look fantastic Katie! Love the hair. You have such a beautiful family. And Ethan looks a ton different. He's a little man now. Okay now I miss you guys even more but I love love seeing pictures of you all.
LOOOOVE!!!! I am so happy to see pictures of your guys (they turned out GREAT, btw). I haven't seen E in so long, I can't believe how much your boys look alike!!! Also, although the kids are all a good mix of genes, it's awesome how the girls look so much like little Kev and the boys look like you! I am glad you guys got to be together--it's my favorite holiday/season, too! (Isn't NC SO PRETTY in fall? I got there in Nov. 1992 and it was my first real, hardcore fall--I fell in love!)Miss you guys! XO

Awww! I miss you guys! It has been YEARS. I don't even KNOW some of your children. You need to move close to me again so that I can invite myself out to your house for dinner some more.
Merry Christmas!
