Thanksgiving Weekend 2015

We all had a nice little Fall Break a few weeks ago. It was a nice calm before the storm of end-of-the-term assignments (including two 12-hour shifts on the Telemetry unit) and finals (which start TOMORROW). I decided to take a break from studying to play catch up here on the blog. Up first: Thanksgiving!

This year, we had Thanksgiving with the Cox brothers and their families and a few other friends. It was a great day! Peter worked, unfortunately, but we brought him some leftovers before heading out to Los Angeles (he worked the whole weekend). LA included time with my parents and my sisters and my nephews. And, of course, TAMALES! We ended the weekend by decorating for Christmas at our house and watching Elf. Tis the season!

Time to decorate our house!

Post Script: There will be no Christmas cards this year. I haven't even had time to get it together enough to take the kids' annual photos or arrange for a family photo to be taken. And, honestly, I don't have time to sign and address 100+ Christmas cards, even if they were generic, without a photo. So, here's hoping for next season!
