Great Thanksgiving, Busy It's the Holidays..

Well I just realized that I have not made a post since we went home to Kentucky for Thanksgiving. I took the entire week of Thanksgiving off since I have a surplus of PTO days. I had a great time visiting with my family & seeing old college friends! I also headed to Louisville to see one of my favorite aunts, Mary Leslie. We had a great time catching up!

It's still hard to believe that little Miss Maggie is a SENIOR this year & will be graduating in May. I enjoyed raiding her closet & she enjoyed going through my suitcase as well. Dixie enjoyed being home with her canine cousins & chasing Casey our cat. Poor Casey was constantly running away from Dixie who kept trying to befriend her! It was sad to leave on Sunday but I missed Lily & Daisy so I was happy to get home to my girls.

I feel like December is flying by already, there is just so much to do. Between tests, parties & birthdays I have so much to do. I am very excited about giving our veterinarian her Christmas gift next week when I have to take Lily in for her annual checkup. I ordered Dr. Abercrombie a mug from Louisville Stoneware (it's a Kentucky tradition & I love love love their patterns. I'm still collecting the Bachelor's Button pattern) that reads the following: on the front it says "Our Favorite Vet" and on the back it lists her name. It's so cute & I really think she will like it.

Next week I'm hosting a Cookie Swap for all my girlfriends, so I've got so much to do for that and I've also got to put my Christmas tree up soon but I think I'm going to wait until Sunday afternoon. Lily & Daisy love to climb the tree & swat at the ornaments. So I usually end up taking all the ornaments off because they break when they fall. The tree starts off decorated beautifully but then I have to take everything off. The girls think the tree is a great big toy!

Plus, I've got to head to Athens at some point next week to get Jack's Columbia UGA jacket that he's requested. Okay isn't Mom's tree in the living room pretty? I wish mine could stay looking like that. I'm not going to bore you with all my pictures, so here's Mom's tree. Haha....

I'd love it if mine could stay looking like this.
