So I haven't posted in a while because we have been overtaken by the Strep Throat monster at our house. Nathan got it right before Thanksgiving, gave it to me right after Thanksgiving, then I gave it to Lauren who then gave it to Jason and now Nathan has it for the second time! Little Luke has endured a bunch of grumpy people for the last couple weeks and hasn't gotten it...YET. I guess we were all just feeling the spirit of giving this holiday season in a slightly different way. I'm done with giving (of strep throat at least).
On a lighter note we had my entire family to our house for Thanksgiving. We deep fried a turkey for the first time and it was SO delicious. We had such a wonderful time with everyone here. The girls all spent the night and headed out at 5 am for Black Friday shopping. That was a blast as usual and I ended up with some pretty good deals. Being with my sisters and mom (and my friend Megan) was really the best part. AND my dad came along this year to be our personal buggy attendant/line holder. How cool is that??
Last Friday we hosted a White Elephant Party at our house. It was so fun! Jason and I couldn't stop talking about how much fun we had and how blessed we feel to have such wonderful friends and neighbors around us. We had some great gifts and some even better food (I feel the need for a recipe exchange!). I can't wait to do it again next year.
