Thanksgiving Adventures

So you know those times when you have so much to write, you don't want to write anything at all? This is one of those times...

Thanksgiving was surprisingly eventful. First of all, for family home evening, we made grateful turkeys. Here are just a few that were made.


We have on the top Brett's and Christina's and mine is on the bottom. We love crafts.

My going home story is really long and I don't want to write it all out. If you don't already know and want to, give me a call. While I was home though, I learned this little trick.
I'm still perfecting crocheting, but you can all have babies now because I can crochet you a blanket.
The day after I got back to Chicago, this cute family came to visit. It was really fun to see them again and their newest addition, little Abigail!

And then, when I got a minute, I Christmased my apartment.

It's nothing like my mom's decorations but at least there is Mickey!
I also went with a group downtown to watch Mickey kick off Christmas along Michigan Ave. Mickey and all of his friends were there in a parade but it was so crowded, I couldn't get any pictures of the floats.
I was able to get a shot of a balloon. I think he is the mascot to some bank. I'm good at getting impressive shots.

We also did a little bit of sight seeing and I saw theaters that I had heard about but never seen. It just goes to show no matter how many things I do around here, there's always something I haven't seen and a new adventure around the corner!
