I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! We had an alright day so far. I still have a hard time with holidays. This will be our 3rd year in Texas and holidays still don't "feel right". I miss home now more than ever. It's something that I'm sure gets easier with time but it hasn't gotten easier yet. Speaking of home I'm getting ready to make plane reservations to go back! Southwest has all airline tickets after the New Year for $89! I'm jumping on that! I'm looking at being in Maryland the 6th through the 26th of January. I'm not sure yet what to do about Joe. He has to go to school. At first I thought about taking him out of school for a week and then letting him fly back to Texas with Ron (Ron is in Maryland every other week) so that he only misses one week of school and not 2. Then Mom suggested he just stay home and go to Maryland in the summer (we go home every summer too). I'm not sure what to do. It's to expensive to go while he is out of school on break and I want to go around the time my niece is born (Jackie is due January 1st). I have to think on it?
Back to Thanksgiving, I got side tracked! So in a couple hours we are hitting up The Main Event for a game of bowling...Kristy and John we are going to miss you! No one has a nicer "spin" than John, haha! And tomorrow we are hitting up Black Friday!!! Check this sight out for Black Friday sales http://www.blackfriday.info/sales/. In honor of Thanksgiving I'm leaving with a short list of things/people I am thankful for today...
* 3 great kids who make my day everyday
* Jazz
* An awesome set of parents who are sooo supportive
* Bubba for loving our kids unconditionally
*3 kick ass sisters and brother
*Cool in-laws
*The most loving Grandparents anyone could ask for (they seriously are the best)
*Tony, my rock, I'd be lost without him
*Kristen (my "other" sister) for ALWAYS making me laugh
*Health, right now everyone is healthy, what more could we ask for?
And really that' s just the tip of the ice berg. I'm asking everyone to keep my niece Miki in your thoughts (she has been really sick) and the victims of Mumbai. I have been following this story closely and my heart really goes out to them.

Haha! Hope you had fun bowling! John really does have a nice spin! lol.
Miki is doing better too, thank goodness!
Southwest has cheap tickets...hmmmm will have to look into that!
LOVE Allie's pants! Those are too cute and funny! Glad you had a good Thanksgiving, I know how you feel about it not feeling "right" sometimes, being away from home and all. I love Nick's family, they're all really nice and welcoming, but I do get homesick (for washington) around the holidays sometimes. You have a lot to be thankful for too! Reading your list made me think of all the things I'm thankful for, which I hadn't really thought about yet. Thanks! =]
