Late Thanksgiving wishes

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. We definitely did. I cooked the turkey and made green beans while my mom made the dressing. My grandmother made the sweets and other veggies to go with our Thanksgiving dinner. We drove up to north Georgia to be with grandma on Thanksgiving. She was really excited about us coming up. We had a good visit with yummy foods. I will be making turkey noodle soup today with leftovers, yum.

Jeff is gone to work, yes I know it is 4am but he had to be there at 4am. I got up with him at 3pm and made him coffee and breakfast. And now I am ready for bed since he is gone. The store is getting ready for the big sales today. I won't be going into the gift hungry crowds as I like to enjoy shopping when there isn't as many busy bodies out there. I am almost done with my shopping, which is a blessing on me this year. I have yet to get Amber's big present and something for Jeff. This weekend we are also planning on decorating our Christmas tree and finishing up our decorations around the house.

I made an Advent calendar with a kit from Making Memories and will hopefully soon take a picture and share with you all. It is pretty cool the way it turned out. I am really loving it. Any ideas on what to place inside each little box? I have thought of candies or little notes of wisdom, but really I am not sure yet. Any ideas would be helpful :) Well my eyes are getting a bit tired. So I am off back to bed. xoxo

Hi Amanda! Love your new blog home! I just wanted to say that you seem really really happy these days and I'm glad! For the Advent Calendar, well, chocolate! Or maybe small little Christmas decorations, small baked goods?
