Christmas at Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving trip to the midwest to visit Eric's family. Not only did we celebrate turkey day - we did birthdays (Kelly, Mom, and me) and Christmas. It is really wonderful spending the holiday season(s) with them.

Mom had the entire house decorated for Christmas and even our stockings were hung.

Mom & Eric

Kelly & Mom working the Christmas card assembly line. It was a lot of fun to have all of the women at the table working on a common goal.

I love making messages from the sections in between stamps (learned this from Cindy). I thought that having five books worth of the extra little sections would be enough for a full holiday message, but I ran out.

Dad & Eric

There were lots of presents, smiles...

laughs, hugs, and family.

Eric learned Call of Duty and played with Dad.

Mom & I had movie marathons.

And I finished my 'craft' project I started last Thanksgiving (I'll post a picture later).

All in all, we had a lovely trip. And miss them!
