Give Thanks!!!!!

Thanksgiving weekend 2010 was relaxing. Even though Elijah and I were both off, we decided to stay at home. I cooked. Can you believe it? I actually cooked. Our meal consisted of Fried turkey, ham, cornbread dressing, cabbage, corn bread muffins, sweet potato pie and pecan pie. It was actually pretty good. I didn't have to throw anything out. I posted a picture of Elijah's plate, and Daniel and Elijah resting after eating.

On Saturday morning, Elijah put up the Christmas tree and the kids decorated the Christmas tree. It was soo much fun. Daniel is really into Christmas this year. He is feeling really special because his birthday is in the same month as Jesus birthday.

Although we had a relaxing weekend we really did miss our family and friends in Louisiana. We can't wait to see everyone when we go to Uncle Montrell's graduation next month.

Pediatrix Casino Party

What an awesome way to end a busy work week!! Elijah and I had a date night last night and went to the annual Pediatrix Casino Night Party. I usually give Elijah my ticket to play casino games and he in return gives me his drink tickets. I was feeling really good after my 4 margaritas :-).

We didn't dance a lot this year. We did a lot of people watching. We asked to dj to play the wobble, but he didn't :-(. So I was pretty bummed . The highlight of the night was watching Jen and Sherry dance with the very cute 70 year old granny. Sherry was actually trying to teach granny how to get low.

This is the first year we actually won something. We won a portable dvd player (we were very happy because ours just broke), and Jennifer won a paint ball gun (lol). There were two young girls sitting at out table and they won a $75 Victoria Secrets card. They were just hilarious to watch. They were like a drunk Romie and Michelle.

On Wednesday night the minister challenged us to not complain and be thankful this November. So, I am so thankful for Jeanne (babysitter), great friends, the Pediatrix group and an awesome date night with the hubby :-)
