A Big Birthday


We had a big birthday come and go for our youngest.  How can he be fifteen?  These teen years are zooming past us.  He wanted a zoo membership for his present.  We had not been in many years, so we really enjoyed our recent trip.


We also had a family party and he received a really huge expert level Lego set.  It was fun to watch him build it.  He had to build in his free time, so it took a little longer than the average set.  Do you know that I have never put together a Lego set?  That seems so weird in this house of Lego nuts!


Now I am in Thanksgiving preparation mode.  I really need to get out the carpet cleaner, wash windows, cabinets, and on and on the list goes.  This year I am trying not to let the holidays sneak up on me.  I love hosting Thanksgiving and I want to make sure it is a good day for my beloved family. Do you host Thanksgiving?  Are you ready?

  2. Happy Belated Birthday Trevor!!! Wow 15 ALREADY? That young man is growing up to something great (not that he isn't already). Neat Lego set. I don't think I ever had a single Lego as a child -- I had Lincoln Logs and wooden blocks. In fact, I don't know if our girls ever had any real Legos when they were young. Huh, I suppose I have ruined them for life.

    Are you hosting a BIG family Thanksgiving? This year will be very different for us. Even though I love making all the traditional goodies, we will be having Thanksgiving Day lunch at the nursing home with my mom ($10/person). And then I think with Jeff's family at a restaurant the Saturday following. Both girls have to work on Black Friday, a busy day for them, but I never go Black Friday shopping, so it matters not. Have a great week my friend!!!
