Fully Bellies!!





We got back from visiting my parents on Saturday night. It was a quick little trip, going up on Thursday morning and returning Saturday evening. When we got to their house, we were greated by all kinds of good things to eat and lots of work to do in the kitchen. Emily loves to help in the kitchen lately. She chopped squash, basted the turkey with grandma's help. Casey even helped too by setting the table. We had a wonderful, relaxing day. The next day we headed to Oxford to do some Christmas shopping. It wasnt the best of times with Casey complaining about wanting to go home and Emily begging to find a Starbucks (she has a new thing for their peppermint hot chocolate). I was very tired once we returned home but I got to go on a date with Hubby. It was our 16th anniversary and we went out to eat and to see a movie. It was nice to have some grown up time for once. LOL! Then it was out shopping again Saturday morning before our trip home. My mother wanted help with decorating her tree so we went to get some ornaments and decorations. Overall, we had a good weekend away. I am going to miss being able to just get in the car and visit my mom in less than 5 hours : (
