How was your Turkey Day?

{Thanksgiving Recap}

Well I thought our Thanksgiving would be so lonely with just the four of us, but it turned out quite nice. It was themost relaxing and laid back Thanksgiving dinner I've made, and Alyssa really enjoyed helping make all the different items, setting the table, and getting to be part of the "big people" table with China and all. :) Alyssa even tried several new foods this year and LIKED them which just made the whole dinner sooo enjoyable. Kyleigh tooootally had a blast with dinner. I haven't seen the kid eat that much food in a long time. Her favorites were definately the mashed potates, corn on the cob, and the fruit pudding. She tried everything on her plate as well, and ate almost every bit of it.














Today my mom forwarded an email to me from my brother. Here I've been so selfish complaining that we'll be so lonely to have no family with us for Thanksgiving, and he's over there in Iraq ALL ALONE for the holiday. :( Made me cry to think of how lonely he must of felt and how selfish I've been. He did get his box the other day that we sent him last week though and it had a little Christmas tree with all the trimmings for him. Mom said he really loved it and has already put it up. I hope that when he looks at it, it reminds him of our love and that we are there with him in spirit this Christmas.

{Ok so on to some fun digiscrappin stuff... }

Also...remember the Flavors of Summer Collection (at SBB under Raechel Knight) I did with Raechel and Lisa W? Well, it's on sale today too for 30% off, AND we dropped the regular price to $20, so for today you can get it for only $14 - all SIX kits! PLUS, if you buy the collection this weekend, you can get the 12 page mini album we've made to go with it (regularly $6.00, on sale for 30% off today) FREE!

As a gift to you, to go with the Christmas doodles, you can download these color-ins to go with them here FREE. All you do is put this png color layer under the doodle and in a snap you have a colored doodle. I hope you'll leave me some love if you take. (Sorry this blog freebie has expired.)



And so with that..I'm going to head off. I need to do some shopping myself now and catch some deals while I can. hehe
