Thanksgiving Weekend

This is what the morning after Thanksgiving looked like:

The girls headed out for some Black Friday shopping, while Luke went to a movie with Grandma and Grandpa Z.

We had the most amazing thing happen when we were out to lunch though - a table of complete strangers picked up our bill, which had to be at least $70.  We couldn't believe it!  Paige was flirting with the guy the entire meal, the guy said goodbye as they were leaving, and then the waitress came over and told us that table had paid for our meals and included the tip - amazing!  We all had chills!  What made it even more interesting was that morning Carly had paid for the person behind her in the Starbuck's drive thru as she was coming to Peru from Madison.  Pay it forward!!!

Anyways - we had a great day of shopping and both Fiona and Paige were very good!  They slept at the right times in their strollers and were perfect little shoppers!

I got quite a few strange looks since Paige didn't have any socks or shoes on, but she kept taking them off so I finally left them off while we were in the mall!

That night we headed to Mi Margarita to celebrate my mom's birthday as we do every Friday after Thanksgiving!

Before we left my parents on Saturday, Luke & Paige needed a bath and Fiona came in for a bit too!

Next up was heading back up to the suburbs for Lilly Happ's 1st birthday party! And of course that was the night that Notre Dame finished their season undefeated - Wally was very happy!

I began bringing up some Christmas decorations that day, but the decorating really began on Sunday.  Wally put the outside lights up and we got both trees up. 

As is our tradition, we put on The Polar Express for the first time this year and had some hot chocolate.  This time though, we took our hot chocolate to go and ended our Thanksgiving weekend with a walk to see some Christmas lights and show the kids our own Christmas lights!

Thankful!

I am so thankful for all of the blessings in my life - and there are many! 

This year we spent our Thanksgiving the same as we have the past few years.  First up, was Zukowski Thanksgiving on Wednesday night.

Paige was very interested in the pilgrims...

The next stop was my grandparents where Paige enjoyed some horsey rides on Logan! Photobucket

And then it was back to my parents for some dessert with the Kohr's! Photobucket

And there it is - Paige's nasty look she shows quite often! Photobucket

Paige found a new seat! Photobucket

Sophie was busted jumping on the bed! Photobucket
