Thanksgiving Fun






Well, I did it! We made a Thanksgiving feast here at the Mollet homestead. Here are some pictures of the girls helping with dumplings. They got their little aprons on and everything...


Jocelyn and Carissa each got to open a birthday present--Jocelyn's birthday was actually on Thanksgiving but Carissa's is next Thursday...We have a pretty busy November but love to know we have reason to celebrate.


Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving...

Birthday, Birthday, Thanksgiving, Birthday Party and Birthday...

That describes the rest of our November. I love this time of year because I get to celebrate my daughters' birthdays. This year we are celebrating their birthdays together--it makes it fun and they still don't mind it yet. This may be the last year we'll be able to pull it off, but that's okay.

Thanksgiving will be new for me this year--I'm actually not pregnant, not a new Mom again, and we'll actually be in our own place. I am (drum roll please...) actually cooking it all myself!! I could live to regret it, but I've gotta do it sometime...It'll be tough to stick to my diet, but I'm determined to try as hard as I can.

Jocelyn will be turning 2 on Thanksgiving and Carissa will be 4 a week later. I've already bought one gift for them to share (yeah, right) and I will still try to pick up a couple more things before their birthdays.

We've been staying pretty busy...life can really get like that quickly! School is still moving right along for both Joe and me. Carissa is loving and learning so much in preschool...Jocelyn pretty much never stops--she's just like I imagine Joe was as a kid!!

We'll be excited to see family over the next few weeks...it's always great to spend time with everyone.
