Thanksgiving 2014

We went to Sioux City the weekend before Thanksgiving to celebrate with Jason's family.  This was the last weekend that I was comfortable traveling away from home.  We knew we could make it a day trip and I felt better about that too at 37 weeks along.  We had a delicious meal at his brother, Lonnie's house, and we also celebrated his niece and nephew's Confirmation.  Congratulations to Rachel and Nathan!  The girls always enjoy playing with their cousins...especially on the Kneifl side because they don't see them as often as their Paces cousins.  We weren't able to stay for the Confirmation, but we are very proud of both Rachel and Nathan. 
 
On Thanksgiving Day, we celebrated with my family at my parents house.  I don't have a single picture from that day...can you believe that?!?  My Aunt, Uncle and Grandma were there too.  My girls ate next to nothing and there was so much to choose from!!  Picky little turds.  PaPa took them to the park and then I did some shopping that evening.  I'm happy to report that all of my Christmas shopping was done and wrapped by December 2nd this year!!!  That is a small MIRACLE for this girl!
 
I love the holiday times...family, food, dรฉcor, Christmas movies, the story of the birth of Christ and this year we will have a new baby boy to snuggle up with!  We are truly blessed.
