It's the week of Thanksgiving and I can't believe how fast this fall has gone by. This will be our first Thanksgiving together. We have plans to be with both families, watch football, play games and eat and sleep a lot.
On Wed. Landon and I are decorating for Christmas and are cooking for the next day. We are making Muddy Tracks, Pumpkin Choc. Chip Cookies and Pecan Bars. Landon is also going to be making some rolls with our bread maker and I am going to make a Va. Sweet Potato Casserole. We are so excited to get started. Landon has never made a pie before so this year will be his first time making one with me.
Thanksgiving Night my family is combining with the Becknells and we are having a Black Friday Party. We are going to hit our first store at 10pm Thanksgiving Night. We plan to shop until we drop. This will be Landons first time ever participating in Black Friday and what started out as a grudge has now turned into pure excitement as he checks his app on his iphone everyday. lol
I have to say that this year Thanksgiving will be a new start for me and for Landon. He and I both have our regular traditions but thisd year we are combining our traditions and letting some of them go and starting some new ones together. Its an exciting time!
This year I am so very grateful for my marriage! I am thankful that I have such a wonderful husband who I never get sick of spending time with. We have been through so much since we got engaged, married and started our new lives together. We have had a very long strand of bad luck. Amongst all the bad luck however Landon and I have managed to draw close together in a way that we will be forever grateful. We have no idea where we will be next Thanksgiving or even where we will be at the beginning of the year. lol We are both thankful though that no matter where we are or what we are doing it will be together.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
Kristi! I love you girl! I'm so sorry about all your bad luck. It must mean that something incredible is coming around the corner. But I love you tons and can't wait to see you again, whenever we can figure out a time to get together. I'm so happy that you and Landon are doing so well and am so excited for you and just in general for Black Friday. You are for sure the Black Friday pro! I know you'll make out like a bandit! :-D Love you lots! Happy Thanksgiving week!
