giving thanks

Today turned out exactly how I hoped it would despite the fact that none of us got out of bed until 9:15 (which is usually when Gideon takes his first nap). We saw Santa at the end of the parade and I was so happy to be sharing this with Gideon that I cried a little. Dinner was great without being excessive. Seeing all the family—many who hadn't seen Gideon more than once if at all—was really nice. There were 24 of us at my Grandparents ranging from 80+ all the way down to 8 months. Dessert at my Sister-in-law's was yummy.

We are finally home for the night. JQ is putting Gideon to bed. I'm in my comfy pants, getting ready for some leftovers. Once we arm ourselves with a snack and are both in our jammies, we will be vegging out on a game and maybe some tv. It couldn't get much better than this.

Happy Thanksgiving.
