Long weekend happenings

December 3, 2014

After our great Thanksgiving, we thoroughly enjoyed having a few days off together with no plans!  Well, no plans other than check on the new house, go to Lowe’s (shocker), and start cleaning out our current house for packing.

Robert and I took the day off Wednesday and we were all up and going early. After a morning trip to Lowe’s, we decided to stop off at Bass Pro on the way home just because…

For the record, it’s actually a great place to go kill an hour on a cold day. There’s tons to see and they have a whole Winter Wonderland area with Christmas decorations, crafts, a carousel and Santa!  We were too early that day for Santa but we may be back!

The boys had a blast and I was shocked at how many people were already there at 9am in the morning!

We then had a great Turkey day but, the day after Thanksgiving, Spencer was sounding really congested, croupy, and wheezing so we made a trip up to the doctor to get him a steroid prescription and another albuterol mask.

I hate when my buddy is sick but he handled it all just fine…wind chapped cheeks and all!

The rest of the weekend was spent stopping by the new house…

We even took time to make the new house look Christmas-y!  This makes me pretty darn happy!

Finally, on Sunday night we put on our Christmas shirts to go to the Advent Workshop at church.

The boy made some cute crafts and we all got into the Christmas spirit!

We’re in the home stretch now for our big move and it can’t come soon enough!

Would love to hear from you! 3 Comments

    Dying! All of your pictures are so cute and the house looks AMAZING!!!! I’ve already told you, but that pic of Spencey in his high chair makes me want to drive down to Birmingham RIGHT THIS SECOND and kiss his face! And Maxwell looks so adorable and TALL in that pic of them on the front porch stairs!!! Too cute. Can’t wait to see the new house!!! xoxoxo

    Cute! Your new house looks like a cross of CCs and LR GJ’s house! Or maybe it’s because of all the red brick. Looks festive!
