It's starting to look alot like Christmas...

This week it is really starting to feel more like Christmas. On Monday, my two sister in laws, Leah and Susan, and I went over to my mother in laws' house for our Christmas cookie baking day. We had lots of fun making, eating and decorating cookies. The kids got into it as well and definitely enjoyed the eating part.


On Tuesday, Paul and I went to pick up our new Toyota sienna mini van. We are so excited. It is slate gray and feels like a luxury car. It is quite the upgrade from our old car since the heat wasn't working very well, you couldn't open the passenger side door from the inside, it shakes when you go over 60, and there was a mysterious rattle sound in the truck that the mechanics could never figure out what it was. Needless to say, we are very grateful especially for the room in the car since we will be having 3 kids soon. Harrison is very glad he won't have to sit in the middle seat between two car seats.



On Wednesday, Noah and I left early in the morning to fly to Florida. It is great to be with Meme and Granddaddy. Momo even came over and spent the night too. Momo introduced Noah to her V8 juice and he liked. Here is a picture of the two of them toasting their V8 juice.


On Thursday, my mom had a special treat planned for my sister and I, she took us to a spa to get a pedicure together and then we got to go out to eat just the three of us. It was such a wonderful time to really talk and be together. Granddaddy stayed home and played with Noah and even put him to bed.



Today, Friday, we are going to the Art museum to see the Norman Rockwell exhibit and walk around and eat by river front in downtown Ft. Lauderdale.
