Thanksgiving-ing It!

Happy Tuesday before Thanksgiving!  Just a few more hours and I will be home with my family "Thanksgiving-ing" it up for the rest of the week.  I am so ready to be off for a couple days and love on my kids when they are not driving me crazy :) ! In honor of the wonderful holiday in a few days, here a few things that Rachel is thankful for...

New hair dos!  Last week I had my hair cut and colored and I love it! So thankful for a great hairdresser that drags me from boring to fun in just an hour or so!

Hot chocolate in the Keurig!  It is so good and the kids think I am fantastic for making it!

Pinterest - without it, I would have never found THE Ruth's Chris sweet potato recipe that I will be making this week!  Hello yummmmmm!

My HOGS!! Need I say more :)...


Owen in his Thanksgiving program last week :)...


These two posing for me....and even the little one behind me throwing a fit and yelling "no picture! no picture!"

Oh, here she is with her FABULOUS mani from the glamping sleep over!

"Nafangle" our Fairy elf that has joined our family (more about him later :))

I am so thankful for our health, family, friends, and everything the Lord has blessed us!!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!! Be thankful to the Lord for all your blessings, we sure are!!!!

Glamp On Glampers!

Happy Thanksgiving week!!  Thanksgiving week is my favorite!  8 years ago, Thanksgiving became more than about turkey, dressing, no work etc - it reminds me of the birth of Claire!  Her birthday is a week from today, but we had her friend party this weekend!  We had a "Glamping Party Sleepover" opposed to a Camping party :).  I found the idea and Tara ran with it!! It turned out perfect and the kids had a great time!  There are so many fun details, but you will see them all in the many pictures Tara got for me...here you go!

































































Cannot believe my baby girl is going to be 8!!!!!!!

Have a great day!!
