A Restful Thanksgiving

We have had a wonderful and very restful Thanksgiving holiday. We spent Wednesday afternoon getting the kids pictures taken for our Christmas cards. Most of Thursday was spent preparing the most wonderful meal ever cooked. One of my friends from school came over and spent the day with us. Later in the evening, our neighbors came over to watch the game (in Texas that would be the UT/A&M game.) On Friday, we put up our Christmas things.....pics coming soon. Today we put the finishing touches on our decorating, attended a birthday party and went out to eat at Logan's Roadhouse. Michael and Brock did a little shopping while we were at the party. Brock got a basketball goal and new basketball shoes. It's that time....his first basketball practice is on Monday and the games start soon.

We have so many things to be thankful for this year.....we live a life full of daily blessings. One of the newest things on my list is our new hardwood floors and my sweet husband who spent endless hours shopping, comparing prices and matching colors. Merry Christmas to me.....this year, next year, the next year and the one after that =)

Here are some before and after pictures.
