11/23/11 – “This Weather….Maybe”

Today, my “30 Days of Thankful” item is, this weather. It’s so amazingly beautiful out, I can’t even believe it. This time last year was windy, and freezing and everything was covered in snow. This year, you don’t even need a coat, or a heavy sweater for that matter! It’s just been completely perfect fall weather, which is great. However, the only downside to it is…we’re a little worried about our turkey for tomorrow! We deep fry our turkey, which means it has to brine overnight in a big standing cooler. This usually isn’t an issue because we leave the cooler outside or in the garage, which helps it stay cool. This year, we’re a little worried that it might be too warm out! Hopefully the overnight temperature tonight is low enough to help us out!

Today was really a laid back day. Work was quiet, as expected, so I got a TON of stuff done. There were only a few of us in the office (basically my favorite people in the office, shhhhh), so we ordered lunch and spent some time chatting and catching up. LOVE days like that at work. Christian had to work a little late, getting ready for the long weekend, but he still picked up the girls, which gave me plenty of time to get the dishes done and a little picking up and cleaning done around the house. After dinner and a little family time, the girls were off to bed. We started brining the turkey, did a little final cleaning for the day, and were off to bed ourselves! I cannot believe tomorrow is Thanksgiving! The most “wonderful time of the year” is here, and in full effect!

Here is a picture of Amelia, working so hard to feed herself nowadays. Such a big girl already!
