National Leftovers Day
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I loved sharing the yummy food and good conversation with my Dad, Nancy and our family. I made way too much food. (Note: tripling the recipe is not really necessary unless you are feeding a lot of teenagers.)
We had a fantastic family experience on the way home - we sang Christmas carols at the top of our lungs (specifically, Jingle Bells by the Barenaked Ladies - awesome song!) I love singing together - it is something I remember fondly from my own childhood, and I love to hear Max singing in the back seat.
Today we visited Oma and cleaned house a bit. Just the tip of the iceberg, but we're trying to get things ready to put up the holiday decorations. Here's hoping we'll have the tree up with plenty of time to enjoy it.
And no, I didn't go shopping at 4:00 in the morning. I'll camp out at Ikea, but waking up at 3:00 am to shop is just crazy! ;-)
Happy Birthday to my FIL. And love to all of you!
