There is just something about the temperature getting colder and the air feeling crisper! Turkey dinner is almost on the table and you are surrounded with tons of family, the holiday parties filled with love and laughter among friends/family, and then all the busiest time of the year... Hanukah and Christmas!!!
Party planning with the our girls Gingerbread House/Naughty Santa Chinese Gift Exchange and don't forget the Annual Mother-Daughter Cookie Exchange!
I'm already listening to Christmas music and blasting it each time! People are starting to decorate and the drive home to see the lights is just amazing.
Now is the time to focus on family and friends. To think about what you have and how grateful you are. Mr. O and I are surrounded with so many supportive and special people in our lives. Each day our life gets more settled up here in the mountains and the more confident that this is the place stay for us.
Our Thanksgiving news is pretty exciting!! We are off to ...........
NY
We are so excited to spend Thanksgiving with Jesse's extended family and I get to see my favorite family member... Gillian!! :) So much to do!!! We start this journey next Wednesday night after work and then arrive Thursday AM (Happy Turkey Day) to the Benowich home! We celebrate by eating all day and then I'm sure off to bed early b/c .... BLACK FRIDAY in NYC has got to be so cool!!! A few days of shopping, seeing new parts of the city I haven't been to - SoHo, Meat Packing District, and Brooklyn, trying out the Subway (missed it last time due to the subway strike), making seeing a show and our biggest moment will be the NY GIANTS football game Sunday with 2 box seat tickets and a VIP parking pass!! YES WE ARE EXCITED!!! You can't tell?!?!?!?
I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday! Much love from the Mountains!
