I can't believe that Thanksgiving is over and it's now officially December. I have this little bit to show in my ongoing trek to finishing these hexies.
They just seem to be growing so slowly.
I was able to do these on the way back from my trip. "What trip" you ask? Well, it all started like this......
Two weeks ago, our house started filling up with people. Both our children and their families came to Pensacola for Thanksgiving for the first time in 6 years.
It was our little granddaughter's first visit to Nana and Granddaddy's house :).
It was the first time for my parents to be with all 7 of their great grandchildren.
All 23 of these people spent the majority of the holiday at our house and we ate all our big meals here. This is quite a crew - we all stayed healthy and had so much fun together! I'm so glad we had great weather - the kids played outside as much as possible.
A last minute decision found me leaving early Monday morning on a 1,100 trek. One of the benefits of being currently unemployed is the ability to do things on the spur of the moment. By lunchtime on Tuesday I got to see this!!
My little punkin was pretty good for most of those 1,100 miles. I'm so glad I was there to help her when that car seat got to be too much!
Before I knew it (LOL!!) we were here..... Iowa!! I've never been to Iowa, but we were on our way to Cedar Rapids. After 19 hours on the road, we arrived!
My DS and his family are living here - in a Residence Inn. They've been there 4 months and counting. My punkin got this stroller for Christmas and was taking her cow for a ride :).
This was parked out front of the hotel. We got to go inside :). I guess you never know who will show up!
I flew back to Pensacola yesterday, and my house looks pretty much the way it did after everyone left! Today I've been trying to get things back in order and start thinking about decorating for Christmas. I hope to get back into a groove, but the last few weeks have been so wonderful.
Have a great day,
Karen
