thanksgiving and the beginning of the holidays

For Thanksgiving we went to Iowa and had a relaxing time with my family.  We ate lots of treats, went out to all my favorite restaurants as usual (does my vacation seem like it revolves entirely around food?), learned how to fold fancy napkins, went thrifting, saw Harry Potter, slept in late, did not do homework, were freezing, and most importantly spent time with family.  Shea was there, which was especially fun, considering this was the first time I had seen her in over two years.  I was happy to start the holiday season off with my family and am looking forward to spending the rest with Tanner's.  We are so lucky to both have such great families.

attempting to take a family photo via self-timer, turned out pretty cute

The only thing between me and Christmas break is two ten page papers, one four page paper, and five finals.  I can do it!! I think...
