The weather starts to cool off.
Then we have the holidays.
My birthday, Thanksgiving, Pooh Bear's birthday, Christmas, New Years, then Cutie Pie's birthday. We usually have a full few months. But I really love it!
I LOVE Thanksgiving! In fact, I don't really do anything Christmas-related until after Thanksgiving. Decorating, listening to Christmas music, watching Christmas movies, etc.
I love getting to spend time with family and friends. Turkey. Pie. Potatoes and gravy. Yum!
And this year cake too.
I already got an early birthday present, which really surprised me and was fun.
There was secret planning involved.
So, when I met My Guy, I met his best friend's Mom first. He spent a lot of his time and the holidays over at his friend's Mom's house. And so she is like family to us. We'll call her Ms. A.
Well, Ms. A decided since my birthday is on Thanksgiving this year, she wanted me to have a night to celebrate just my bday. So she called my friends and arranged for my BFF to come into town and take me to the movies. SO SWEET! And boy was I surprised! I don't usually get that many surprises myself, usually I am the one that is always trying to plan the surprises for others.
We went and saw Mockingjay Part 1, Friday night. And I had a lot of fun.
I am just so grateful for everyone in my life! Family, friends, and all of you.
And since I am so excited for my birthday, Thanksgiving and Christmas, I have decided to have a giveaway to celebrate!
