Last week we had a very packed week with dinners, visitors, family, and friends. My Aunt Ellen was in town from California for the week. She and my Grandma Olenech came over for dinner. Jackson and Aubrin were both excited to see them and play with them in their playroom.
We had Thanksgiving dinner at Todd's parents house. The kids had a great time playing with their cousins and eating lots of yummy food. Thanksgiving night we read Elf on a Shelf to the kids. Each morning Jackson and Aubrin get up to try and find the elf. They are having so much fun with it. It has also sparked a lot of conversation about Santa Clause. I love three year old questions.
The day after Thanksgiving I picked up my friend Michele at 4:40 and off shopping we went. We found a few good deals and had a great time together.
Jackson and Aubrin decorated their Christmas tree up stairs. Jackson has been cracking us up. We put his Nativity Scene under his tree, but next to it Jack put a barn. Each night he puts all the animals in it to sleep and in the morning takes them out and rearranges them again. Too cute!
Sad to say that Todd's Grandma passed away last week. She lived a very long and wonderful life. She will be missed dearly. Todd and I went to Indiana for her funeral and also had the chance to see a lot of family that we don't see very often.
After all of the family fun and festivities, it has caught up with Aubrin. We went to the doctors today and she has the flu. She our little lady is taking it easy and resting. It's so hard to see your little ones so sick.
We hope that you have a wonderful week. We continue to be thankful for all of the amazing people in our lives.
