I am so thankful for lots of things, but this week for my family especially! I love spending holidays with them! All we do is laugh, play games, and watch movies...perfect. And thats what we did for the past week. My whole family came to town last Saturday. We started off the week with a little Christmas decorating...
Jac's preschool had a special Thanksgiving lunch that my mom and I attended. She was dressed as an Indian, but not wholeheartedly involved in the song she was supposed to be singing!
We headed up to my grandparent's house for a few days. Steph thought it would be a good idea to try a new recipe for cracker-chocolate covered strawberry-hot tamale turkeys. They actually were not to bad.
Jac and I made some table decorations for Thanksgiving dinner.
The morning of we ran the 5K in Detroit...the Stuffing Strut to be exact. It was a fun, new tradition. And hilarious because about 1/4 of the 10ooo runners were dressed up in some interesting costumes. Hence the guy behind Jenni with a Christmas tree on his head...
After the run, we had Christmas with my grandparents, played a game of football, and then feasted. The girls were champs and enjoyed the day thoroughly (in their matching outfits made by my grandma for them)!
The day after Thanksgiving, we hit up a Christmas tree farm to see Santa arrive. Izy could not care less who was holding her at this point. Jac on the other hand was not so sure...
The HCS boy's football team made it to the state championship on Friday at Lucas Oil Stadium. We made the trip...with the girls...and they won!
Jac loved it! She was jumping up and down, clapping, and cheering. Precious! Izy somewhat enjoyed it as far as enjoying football games goes for 7 month olds.
Fun with Aunt Jenni...
And Aunt Steph...
The last day my family was here we celebrated Christmas with them because we don't get to see them on the actual holiday.
The girls were so into the presents!
I love family time! And hate the days they leave. I know that they are living exactly where God wants them, but sometimes I pray that God would change His mind. Until then, we will keep making amazing memories and spending as much time together as we can. I love and miss you all ALWAYS!
