Thankful for so much






We had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend with our families. We spent Thursday morning "playing" on Oma and Opa's property. The kids went for a hayride and Andy and I went for a walk in the woods. It was such a beautiful day! Later, we went to Cincinnati to enjoy a delicious meal prepared by Diane. I was painfully aware that I ate too much! John and Diane's dog Nikki had an injury so Brooklyn created a chair fence to protect her from the other dogs. She's always so concerned about others!
Andy and I braved the after-Thanksgiving shopping frenzy to complete most of our Christmas shopping. I can't imagine how he gets up that early every day for work! While we were gone, the kids made a gingerbread train and gingerbread cookies. Brooklyn and Xavier really, really wanted to eat the train. Thankfully, they were distracted with the cookies. After a visit with my Grandma, we headed home. We were so happy to know we still had the weekend to be at home!
