abundance of gratitude

Our thankful Thursday became one special weekend of gratitude.  Family sleepovers always lead to days full of love, laughs and relaxation.  After consuming a wonderful meal made by everyone at our table, we settled into a three day adventure which necessitated nothing but considerations of what to eat next and whether to lounge at the kitchen table or the living room couch.  Pure bliss, I must say.  

Thoughts of shopping crossed our mind but the idea of staying in our pajamas and continuing our relaxing days triumphed.  Our resident chef made us many good meals, the fire was kept lit and many bottles of sweet adult juice were brought up from Scott's cellar.   Ahhhh......

Friday morning little miss MC woke up with a cold and a fever so she spent much of the day on the family room chair cuddled up in her comforts but also close enough to share the day with the occasional burst of energy.  Auntie Marie brought us all doughnuts and shared in our day.

In fact we all did a lot of laying around all day.

But at night, once the kids were snuggled in bed, we brought out the game of monopoly and then we let the good times roll! ( Nice hair mom....lol..)  So fun!

Such an  awesome weekend and we are all so very thankful for these memories.  Now that the focus turns to Christmas I have a short wish list for the jolly man.  Another few days just like these, please!  

Thanks in advance, Santa Claus.
