Well I did not see a chat last week and did not start one, with the holiday and all I thought it would be pretty scarce!
Last week was eventful but most of you I see on FB so I wont get into it. We had a wonderful thanksgiving then we did another one on Saterday. Worked out for me cause its my favorite holiday and I was sad i was going to miss my grandparents house but they moved it! Went early afternoon black friday shopping and got us a wireless router, oh yes we are now cool,, LMBO! Plus some clothes and shoes for Natalia so that was a win. Took my aunt and cousins along with my cousin's 5 boys to get picts done with my photographer and that went far more perfectly than I thought. I was sad cause my cousins ex would not let him have the baby girl :-( so she was not in their family photos.. Other than that a good weekend. Now back to it!

Well I a m responding but I wasn't going to start one, lol. Last week was kind of crazy. We were in and out of hospice care since my uncle was there all last weekend and mon and Tuesday. We were still supposed to do Thanksgiving, at our house but it is my favorite holiday as well as our uncle Roy's favorite holiday and without him and his family coming this year it just didn't feel like Thanksgiving. SO we took off and went to the mountains. We traveled late Wednesday night and then Thanksgiving day we just rode 4wheelers and hiked and on Friday too. Staurday we went to my SIL and her family came with us to cut down our Christmas tree and we had a picnic on a mountain top in 30* weather but I think it was just what we needed.

Christina- I got interrupted before I was able to respond to you personally. I am glad that Thanksgiving was nice. Hopefully this week will be a bit less eventful. LOL on the wireless router. I don't know what we would do without ours it's the way we get TV. Taking 5 boys to get pictures taken sounds like a big task, lol what are you getting the girlies for Christmas?

I got Natalia the my little pony wedding castle playset thing, I was excited cause it was on an amazon flash deal so I got it for 12 off :) Then I found a mini water table for Aliya for like 16 :) Those are their big gifts from us then I will get them some smaller stuff. Natalia wants a lot of my little pony stuff so I will prob pick up a couple other ponies and maybe some new touch and feel books for Aliya since Natalia butcherd many of them :-) We have a water table but its pretty deep and makes a mess if we use it indoors so i found this one for cheap and its shorter and smaller so I think it will be easier to fill and clean up :) What are you getting your kiddos?

Well we ended up getting a wii U but the kids were with us so we have let them have it. Other than that as far as things we will wrap, they will probably all get a new game for the wii, and then I want to get Dagon and Zoey a set of blocks called slotto. Zoey absolutely loves to build things and I think she will love these. I want to get Blayse a perplexOus it's like a maze ball thing. I bought everyone new pants and socks and underwear too they desperately needed them. Sounds like a good Christmas to me, lol.

Hey ladies! Happy belated Thanksgiving! Sounds like it was nice for everyone... CHristina, we wound up with 2 days of food as well :), and Janette, Thanksgiving on a mountaintop sounds amazing! I saw your FB picture, very, very cool! Things are still busy here... year end is our crazy time, and just when I think I have my head above water, another project pops up... plus with our new structure, I'll need to start planning WAY ahead for my maternity leave (I'll be off during some of my BIG projects... oops!) so I need to make sure it's all in place and that everyone is set for when I'm gone. Our Thanksgiving was nice, I cooked for the first time, just a smallish group, my parents, aunt, cousin and her husband, and good friend and her daughter... but it turned out good. Friday we went to see Wreck It Ralph, which was cute... Saturday went to the ILs for round 2 of Thanksgiving.. and Sunday we crashed. :) Had an OB appointment last week, and they scheduled the "big" ultrasound... so on the 18th of December we should know boy or girl... which seems CRAZY to me that is' coming up so quickly, but it'll be nice to know before the holidays... :) the sickness has subsided, so I'm feeling much, much better... thankfully... Quinn is so impatient... keeps asking "when is it going to be May? I want my baby to come!" :) Hope you ladies are well!
