give thanks.

Thanksgiving 2011 was fabulous. we have so much to be thankful for and we are so very blessed. last sunday, justin and i drove to victoria to pick up our twin nieces. they hung out with justin on monday while i was at work. they must have played hard all day because they slept the entire way to austin. we took them to austin where we met up with their parents, my inlaws, and my brother in law. we ate a lot, laughed, rode the scooters around the neighborhood with the girls (talk about tiring), made a gingerbread house, went to the park multiple times, and made memories. thursday morning we came back to sugar land and had thanksgiving lunch with my family. i am so glad we were able to squeeze in time with both families. it truly is a blessing justin's parents are only 160 miles away.

they don't go anywhere without their cowboy boots. :)

she took a 2 hour nap in my lap and i was soaking in every minute of it.

 friday morning, justin and my dad went hunting and i hung out with my mom and sisters all day. i love when we are all home together! on saturday, justin and i spent all day making our house full of Christmas spirit. i am in love with our tree and all our decorations. justin has a few more trees to wrap outside (he's a little behind this year) and i can't wait to turn on all the lights. did i mention we are hosting all of justin's family for Christmas? 12 people will be here for Christmas dinner at our house.. needless to say my to do list is 3 miles long.

i will leave you with a picture of justin and i and the sunset. i love it! have a fabulous week!
