We had a lovely Thanksgiving right here at home. My daughters made the meal, we had my mother-in-law and sister-in-law over and the kids were home this year, too! A terrific day all the way around.
I have started a new bible study method. It's art journalling as I study the bible. I have a multi-media sketch book I picked up from Micheals for $4.99 when they had their art supply sale a couple months ago. It's an 8 1/2 × 11 sized book, with thicker pages for the various mediums used in art journalling. My markers bleed through the pages, which annoys me, but if I use clear gesso on them first that should solve the problem.
Scott and I started Christmas shopping this past Sunday. We finished Paige, found something for Erin and Katie. Bought my mother-in-laws gift and most of my moms. We found a small one for me, and I think I will ask Scott to finish our bathrooms as my Christmas gift. We have all the stuff, we just need to do the work. If we can finish our master bath, I could finish our bedroom too. That would make me feel great! I think that's my goal for his upcoming two weeks off.
It's getting more and more difficult to find gifts for our kids. They are increasingly picky. I've decided gift cards are the way to go.
The little ones have so many things written down, they are sure to be thrilled with anything they get.
