Happy Thanksgiving

We hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving. It was the first year that we did Thanksgiving with our little family. We had a very nice Thanksgiving. It was nice to be able to spend quality family time and it was the first time I made Thanksgiving Dinner. I didn't do everything that my mom typically does, mostly because there were only 4 of us and that would have been overkill on food. We had a turkey breast, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, sweet potatoes, asparagus, olives, and an apple pie to top it off. I was pretty proud of myself and surprisingly it all tasted pretty good. My apple pie didn't turn out as good as I would have liked, but oh well. Shawn and I took turns skiing on Saturday and Cruz even got up on the hill a couple times this holiday break. Shawn said he is doing surprisingly good! We played a lot, cleaned the basement out a little, and got some Christmas decorations out. It will be hard to go back to real life. For Shawn, having the time at home with the kids was amazing, and for me, having him around to help was wonderful. We are so grateful for all of our wonderful blessings. We have felt truly blessed this year.
