Thanksgiving 2011

Well the weekend has nearly finished, and with it our family festivitites. Yesterday we had the chance to get out of town for a while and enjoy family time at my Aunt Louella's family farm. We had about ten or thirteen people there, all enjoying food and one another... Zee's favorite part was the horses, and of course playing with the toy trains :)
Today we had the pleasure of hosting Thanksgiving dinner to not only our family, but also to our new friends from the United States: The Booker's! We were all able to eat some great food together, and talk, visit, laugh... Kaylin and Stephen brought along their little kidlet Oliver to play with Zee and his cousin Cael!
We did family photo's this afternoon too, including Martin's grandparents. Which was nice to catch up with them. Sometimes life just gets so busy that you forget to stop and chat once in a while. Martin and I have some news to share with everyone.... But are waiting until Tuesday before the official word goes out! Hold on to your socks, everyone!
I got to spend some time with my favorite Sis in law this afternoon too, cooking, prepping, and pampering. I love that we get to connect over a pedicure. More so, I love getting the chance to serve Shanna in such a show of love.
Tomorrow we will be going to visit my brother and his girlfriend, and their new arrival Celeste. We will drop some things off to the new family, and enjoy some conversation before heading home for naptime. Maybe we will nap too!
All in all, what a wonderful day. I start my new job on Wednesday, my grandma comes into town for a night on Tuesday, and yet somewhere in the middle we have to also get out pup's paw checked out from an accidental sprain today.
Well, that's what it is like when you live the life of a busy bee momma!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
