Giving Thanks

Wow, it is a bit embarrassing how behind I have become on blogging, but we can't forget about Thanksgiving.  Brooke and I flew back from California the night before Thanksgiving, and Kimberly flew in on Thanksgiving day.  We picked her up from the airport on the way up to Flower Mound.
 We enjoyed a yummy meal together, then spent the evening relaxing.  Brooke was a bit out of sorts, but she had done so well our whole trip with the time change, etc, so I think it was finally catching up to her.
Saturday night we went to Prairie Lights, which is an outdoor light exhibition near our house.  You drive through a 2 mile stretch of the park, with over 600 light displays and over 4 million lights!  We didn't go last year, but would see the cars backed up for miles to get it.  We really enjoyed it, so this might become an annual tradition.  We even paid extra to go into the Magic Forest (where you walk among the lights), and to see the holiday musical with the "aspiring Broadway actors". The show was a bit of a disappointment, but it "snowed" on the audience at the end of the show, so what more can you ask for??  
 I adore this picture of Brooke with her Auntie.  She was so bundled because it was freezing!



We are so glad Kimberly could join us for Brooke's first Thanksgiving.  I am SO glad she moved to Denver because flights are super cheap between here and there :)  Maybe next time we will venture to Colorado.  When it warms up, of course!
