Birthday Celebration!

November is a busy month in our household.  With one birthday down, the countdown to the other is on.  And, this year it happens to fall on Thanksgiving Day!  That said, we decided to celebrate a little bit early with a trip to the bowling alley.  The kids have wanted to bowl for a long time and we just never happen to get there.  I think we figured it's been a good 4 years since we have bowled.  Nonetheless, Nolan and his friends enjoyed it!  Derek had also been talking about it all week  and also had a great time!  Nolan chose a TMNT theme and had fun with his friends.  His cousins Keegan and Lexie were also there but left before I took the picture.  Nolan is looking forward to turning 7!
 
 


In other news we are busy getting ready for hosting Thanksgiving later this week.  House is cleaned, meal plan is ready, groceries are bought, and even some Christmas decor is up!  We are looking forward to cousin sleepovers, some Christmas shopping and being with family.

  Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, for many reasons.  I love the family, food and football.  And, Thanksgiving is a day that should happen every day.  We should always be thankful for what we have each and every day.  It's easy to place that in the back of  our minds, I know.  We sometimes take these things for granted.  Thanksgiving is a day that we can reflect on all that we have to be thankful for within the year.  There are too many things to list, we are truly blessed!  Wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving!
