- Emma is in the best shape of her life. So lean, strong and hungry! I swear she was eating every two hours. She is also the happiest I have ever seen her.
- Peter is hilarious. Emma was constantly tweeting his comments. He rarely tries to be funny but he is.
- I've reconfirmed Thanksgiving as the best holiday ever. I love the food, the decor and the actual day. We lucked out with our day being 60+ degrees which meant windows open for cooking and many walks for George. Jeremy and Elizabeth were so happy to ENJOY the day with us...it was perfect (except of course no Knutsons or Schaafs here :( ).
- The smell of a dead mouse is HORRIBLE. We don't have mice IN the house but we've been battling a few in microwave vent and an inner wall. Chris is winning the battle (many caught and if not dead meet their demise in the "killing bucket" of water in the garage...the SAME bucket my husband brought to me in bed with I had the stomach flu...it just made me barf harder), but one has died in the wall and it is very PUNGENT. Ugh.
- Emma and I LOVE sushi and on Saturday we sat at Sushi Muramoto at Hilldale and savored every bite of our "usual" order. Then we hit Anthro, Target, Starbucks and the mall. Had a blast doing some Christmas shopping.
- THIS is the best time of year...the anticipation of Christmas, gatherings, reunions and the promise that our faith is the greatest gift we have. It just makes me feel so content.
- It's still important that we all get the tree together. Emma made sure of that.
- The Coppertop breakfasts are some of our best memories
- George is loved more and more every day (if that is possible?!)...I think we are all getting in as much love as possible because he's showing his age.
- Life can change on a dime so we are trying to take it all in!
XOXO, H.
