Tomorrow morning we're getting up at the crack of dawn and hitting the road to visit Matt's parents in LeMars. It'll be our first visit back with all three kids, and holy cow .... just packing for the trip is an event in itself. I forgot all the stuff we'll need to bring with us for a new baby. It's crazy!! Since I'm still not done packing, I just may throw caution to the wind and leave some "necessities" here -- the bobby pillow, breast pump, bouncy seat, etc... There just isn't room, and really .... when you need to stuff the car with so much stuff you can't see out the windows, it's better to just stay home.... which is exactly where we're leaving Riley! We decided to leave him with his groomer and not deal with the extra hassle of bringing a 4 pound furball with us! Good riddens!!
Tonight we had some friends over to have dinner and hang out before we all went our separate ways for the holiday. Katherine and Caleb had a blast playing with their friends, and were exhausted by the end of the night. Bonus!!
I'm going to be celebrating Black Friday in LeMars and getting up relatively early to hit the sales at Wal-Mart. There's a couple of things I want to pick up for Katherine and Caleb, and as luck would have it they're on sale! Woo-Hoo!! I won't be standing outside with the crazies, but will be there shortly after the doors open. Hopefully I can find a shopping buddy for Friday morning. I'd love to head down to Sioux City for a little while and see what bargains I can find. OOOOOOOHHHH, FRAN!!!!
Anyway, the real reason for this post ....
Happy Thanksgiving to each and everyone of you! I hope that you have a wonderful day spent with family and friends. I hope that good health has found you. I hope that you are blessed beyond measure. I hope that you find meaning life's smallest joys. I hope that laughter crosses your lips often. I hope that your arms are filled with hugs. I hope the best for each and every one of you.
