Top 10 Reasons I Love Thanksgiving

  1. I got to hang out with family. Lots of it. And I'll see them again soon so goodbye wasn't as hard as normal.
  2. My nephews knew who I was when they left. Jace (the 18-month old) had me wrapped around his finger by the end of the week, but hey whatever works right.
  3. I only gained three pounds (must've been the 5+ hrs of vball and 2+ hrs of racquetball).
  4. I got to meet two of my very cute cousins for the first time.
  5. We only hit one hour of traffic leaving and coming back. I was expecting three.
  6. I played racquetball for the first time in over a year and didn't suck. I am incredibly sore.
  7. I got at least four hours of sleep every night and didn't get up until after 10.
  8. My car made it there and back without the timing belt snapping.
  9. I finally went to a real donut shop (not Krispy Kreme).
  10. Richie finally, "read," well really listened to Twilight. Now he gets why I like the book.

There are really only two complaints I have about this weekend- I took my camera with me and didn't take a single picture. Sorry, no pictures yet again. And my little brother wasn't there. It just wasn't the same without him.

yay! I love holidays with family, and being able to just relax and be with people you love.

I am seriously counting down the minutes until Christmas vacation...
