a wonderful day

So, are we all turkeyed out yet?? I know I am not....am actually looking forward to a yummy turkey sandwich after I finish here. And the beautiful thing is that all our leftovers are all put away in the refrigerator all stacked nicely in their containers. Even all the meat has been removed from the bird and in separate containers.....white meat and dark meat. Who does that??? My husband, that is who....and boy, do I love him for it! Sometimes I wish his organizational skills would rub off on me...but then other times, I like to keep things just the way they are ;0) hehehe.

So, yes, we had a fabulous Thanksgiving day and dinner yesterday, just the boys and us. As much as I was hoping Shawn, Cheryl and the boys could have joined us, it was quite nice with the four of us. Nicholas was very sweet when saying what he is thankful for....he is thankful for his wonderful family and as he likes to do, lets us all know how much he loves us. Some days he loves us as much as space, some days it is one hundred million, other days he just can't measure how much. Our precious boy.

Oh, and I guess I should mention that Nicholas actually had some turkey and tried the mashed potatoes. I think most of us knows that he is the pickiest eater.....and well, Shane, is the complete opposite. That child will eat ANYTHING at least once anyway. And truthfully, I think the main reason Nicholas even attempted this was knowing there was apple crisp and ice cream waiting. Shane was in culinary heaven and enjoyed seconds....even thirds I think of some of it. All in all, a fabulous dinner!

And was I thinking right when I booked today off....I even talked Johnathon into going to work late so we could enjoy some peaceful, alone time after he took the boys to daycare this morning. Fabulous...and we will definitely plan more mornings just like this one. But now...after my sandwich, it will be time for me to get busy with my "to do" list. I thought it a perfect opportunity to get some much needed, dare I say it...Organizing done. So, off I go....

OH....and everyone....GO VOTE today!!!
