It's the most wonderful time of the year!

We had a nice Thanksgiving this year, it was a little more on the low key side, which is always nice every once in a while. We were able to enjoy some wonderful food and company with the Martins. There was so much good food and scrumptious dessert. We did miss not being with any family, but are very excited to see them all soon. For those who don't know, December is my most favorite month out of the whole year. I love Christmas time, Christmas music, Christmas decorations, Christmas trees, Christmas lights, the smell of fires burning in the fireplace, and waking up to a white Christmas, though in California you don't really get that, so I will enjoy it for one last year in Michigan, and of course it is the month when I was born so that may have a little bit to do with it being my favorite. People always think I wouldn't like having my birthday so close to Christmas, but I actually love it and wouldn't want it any other time.
We have been staying inside a little bit more this past week since Evelyn and I both have been able to enjoy being sick with colds and coughs, luckily we are on our way too feeling better. So the countdown begins till we leave for the holidays and till my birthday.
Till we leave - 13 days!
Till my birthday - 14 days!
