As November Closes...

I can not believe that another November has come and gone!! The years just keep flying by! Thank you for listening to day after day of my thankfulness! We all have so much to be thankful for! It was good for me to reflect and write about the big and little things that manifest a thankful feeling in my heart! I enjoyed spending time during this past month thinking about those people and things that have and continue to shape me! There's lots I probably didn't get to, yet are just as important! And now it's December! :)

The big kids are at an extremely fun age! They have great conversations among themselves, they are old enough to do most things independently, but still young enough to want and need you! It's just fun! Today was a fun fun day! We had lots of time to just be together! And the best part is, that even though we feel like the weekend should be over, there's still one more day! Yay, for long weekends!! Tomorrow, December begins, and before we know it, another year will be complete!

We visited Santa today! It was fun! Grayson, at first just told him "thank you" for sending an elf to his house, and after some thinking time, he asked if he could have a toy 18 wheeler...sounds fun! But it is the first Mommy and Daddy have heard of that! ;) Ada knew exactly what she wanted! ;) She wants a Doc Mcstuffins bag! She was very sweet with Sanata and has spent a lot of time anticipating sitting in his lap! :)

We got to get out our decorations and make cookies today! That was a fun way to finish off the month! 

December is fun for so many reasons! The Advent Season is a favorite of mine! It's fun to spend a little time each day reflecting, anticipating, and praying! As I mentioned before, I am a little over excited this year for Christmas, but the kids are so fun! They love the advent lessons and crafts, doing things for others, and of course Christmas! It's a fun fun time! :) Looking forward to lots of fun days this month! And hoping we can keep our sanity and somewhat calm kids this month! ;) ha! Happy Decemeber! :)

This was a little gift to myself yesterday! :) I love it! I have been on the lookout for one for awhile and finally found it! :)

The finished tree! :)
