It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.....

Well, I can't believe it's almost Thanksgiving. The funny thing is, this TYPE A plan maker, has no idea what we are doing for the big day! For the first time ever, we do not have plans!!! We did, however they fell through. We were going to go to Virginia to visit with my cousins, their families and Aunts and Uncles that I have not seen in over 10 years. That's a whole nother story. Even though we are disappointed to not be going, it's for the best. My Uncle Ralph is going through chemo and it may be a bit much for him right now. We were going to treat it like a mini reunion, but are rescheduling for the spring.

Friday afternoon, we are heading up to C-L-E-M-S-O-N!! That's right, it time for some fried chicken for the Clemson/Carolina football game!!! I hope we win!!! But, as I said in previous post, while it may be a disappointment if we lose, it's OK, just a game.. Just don't want to hear about it from those Carolina fans (sorry to my friends that are nice Carolina fans).

It's also the week I was supposed to get my Christmas cards mailed out....but, we haven't taken our annual pictures o put on the card yet... So, late cards this year!

So, this Christmas, we have decided not to travel. Not going to Charleston, Florence, anywhere. We are staying in our little house, enjoying family time here. I'm sad I won't see my brother and his family, and my aunt and uncle. Hopefully, my cousin will be coming up. My mom and her husband are coming up for Christmas day. Which means, I AM COOKING!!! aaahhhhh!

It's going to be great this Christmas season. We are not buying presents for the adults (with the exception of giving a little cash to my Granny). Just the kiddos this year. We (Wes and his siblings) are planning on a ski/tubing/shopping weekend around Boone/Blowing Rock for his family sometime in January. We are trying to be relational. We want to teach Madison that the holidays are not about toys, but about being together. So, I am looking forward to a wonderful Christmas season!!!!!
