Okay, it's not our first Turkey Day entirely, but it is our first with little Quinner, now 8 months and change and our presumed final human addition to this Nelson/Spaulding Family (we'll see about that). I am so thankful this year. We are all healthy and happy, and just seem to have a good time together. Right now it's 10 degrees outside in Paynesville, MN. Gas is somewhere around $2.70/gallon. Another wonderful Turkey dinner. Yummy. I want another one. I'm thinking maybe for Christmas?
I'm laying here typing on your Dad's laptop in the guest bedroom of Grandma and Grandpa's house. Quinner is asleep in the pack 'n play. I'm actually streaming "The Princess and the Frog" while I type. I love that movie. Now whenever I watch it, I am reminded of frantically trying to finish a paper for my MSN on a Monday when Max is at school and Quinn is busying himself on the floor. I would usually play it in the background just for noise.
So, here is our holiday picture for the Christmas card this year. It wasn't initially going to be the "holiday" pic, but it just seemed to fit when we got down to making it. I love, love, love it.
Ahead we have some birthday planning for Max's 3rd birthday and of course CHRISTMAS! Very excited. I finally understand what my parents talked about when they said how fast Christmas would come. When I was young it couldn't come fast enough, now I turn my head and another year has gone by.
Okay, well this was a "test" to see if I could actually blog from my email account, so I'm crossing my fingers and gonna hit "send".
Love you guys :-)
