Ahead of and Thanksgiving weekend!

Hey December! Well, I am a few days late on a blog update, but here are a few things of note from the time in and around Thanksgiving!

Made some fun signs at a painting class! We all had a great time!

I made two signs (a Christmas one for me and a hockey one to gift!)

I would do another class - it was really fun and not hard at all!

I'm taking weekly photos of Ruby to gage her fur re-growth. LOL!

She's looking less "shaved" and a bit cuter each day!

We're running short on time to get that holiday card, so hopefully soon!!

Ella had this cute worksheet assignment for school about "What's for Dinner?" where she had to argue what not to eat turkey. Her answers made me laugh out loud! First, because it will break up a family and then second, mac and cheese is so much better and easier she says! HAHAHAHA!

Thanksgiving 2019!

We stayed in town and celebrated with Jay's family. 

I only have one picture from the entire day.

And, it's of my veggie tray that I created in the shape of a turkey!

You better believe I was THRILLED with how it turned out. 

:)

 OMGEE!

We enjoyed a nice meal with everyone, but it was a bummer because Grandma Jolyn was not feeling well and ended up having to head to the doctor. It was still nice to see everyone and the kids even played in the snow since we had a big storm the day before!

In other news, Jay had made Ruby her own race track in the backyard with the snow blower. Only in Minnesota right?! LOL! Ruby LOVES to run so I think she is getting good use out of it, but kind of funny to see Jay out in the backyard making paths.

I did a bit of Black Friday shopping late morning which was really fun and I was able to pick up a few gifts, and the remainder of the weekend was pretty low-key. We ate dinner out Saturday night between the storms and watched the end of the Gopher football game (bummer on the loss against Wisconsin) but the restaurant had a game room so Ella got to play PacMan and skee-ball! FUN!

Lazy days in Christmas PJs with this puppy who always is nudging her way next to me

(Ella gets pretty annoyed when Ruby wants to sit next to me and not her!)

Looking forward to this weekend and Ella's performance in the church Christmas play!
