Well, Thanksgiving was great! Love the Carroll drink and all the wonderful food and family. John finally let us watch Ironman (No one was allowed until actual Thanksgiving Day to watch it at our house). It ended up being a good movie so that was okay. I have to say my heart was so full as we all sat downstairs in the newly finished basement to watch it. There we were all of us sitting on the sectional with our feet up, hanging out, laughing together. It was just priceless. My husband John absolutely loves to have people over. He was in his element. I love to have people over but am a little OCD about everything being clean and perfect. I am trying to get over that but haven't really been able to. Thanks to everyone who brought a dish and made it such a special memory for us.
Christmas decorating is not one of my favorite things! Even with the help of my wonderful mother-in-law, Rita it takes a long time. I LOVE the house when it is decorated for Christmas, but getting there is a different story. I might procrastinate a little! This week is the week however . . . all the kids are anxious about getting it done. I have heard a few whispers about a Christmas party for Maddy and her friends. A bunch of 15 year olds (never just a few) in my house for a big party . . . well we'll see. Then the inevitable, if Maddy is having a Christmas party why can't I have one from Katie. We are still thinking on that . . .
