Much to be grateful for...

This year Josh and I stayed in Miami for Thanksgiving. We had the brief trip to Utah a few weeks ago, plus some of my family is coming to my graduation next week, and to top it off Josh's family is coming for Christmas...so we thought we'd save a few dollars and stay home for the holiday. It was very nice. A lot of our friends also stuck around for the holiday so we thought we would all celebrate together. So, our across the garages friends and ourselves decided to throw a potluck block Thanksgiving party. We ended up having around 30 adults and who knows how many children. We had a great spread that included 3 turkey's, 1 ham, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, green bean casseroles, jello salads, rolls, green salad, soup, and much more! I was so worried we wouldn't have enough food, but we ended up with lots of leftovers! Thank you to everyone who brought food, drinks, tables, chairs, etc, etc!



I had a 3 week break from school (today I started Board Review) and I honestly couldn't tell you what the heck I did with all that time. It's amazing that no matter how busy you are (or aren't) time goes fast and now December and the Christmas season is here. This is one of my most favorite times of year and I can't wait to go out Christmas shopping for everyone! I love to wrap the presents and put up the decorations, watch Christmas movies and listen to Christmas music. There's a special magic that occurs this time of year, even in Miami. We hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season!
