Class #2 complete!

I am SO relieved to report that I have survived another class, and even earned a 93%! Hooray! I am just giddy that I don't have to start the next one (Accounting... help, Tessa!) until January 7th. I plan on reading the entire Twilight series between now and then since I have time to read for pleasure. Now I can relax (sort of)and enjoy the holidays!

Speaking of holidays, I never gave much of a Thanksgiving report! We had a great time with Mima, Papa, Grammy, Adele,Cousins Joyce, Cliff, Claire, James, Emily and Abby! The food was fantastic and the kids had lots of fun playing together. Parker even gave little Abby a big smooch! Kissing is his new obsession. This past weekend he repeatedly kissed our 18 month old neighbor, Holland, to which she responded "Oh no, Oh no, Oh no."

Our ride home from Thanksgiving weekend, however, was not so fantastic. It took us over 8 hours, 3 of which Parker was VERY upset. The trip was especially trying since Chris, Parker, Lennox and I were all packed into my little ole Subaru and none of us had much personal space. We all felt better after a stop at Outback Steakhouse. Even Lennox, who got the scraps! Although I'm excited to go back to Mima and Papa's for Christmas, I am not excited at all about taking that drive again. Boo.

Parker can now walk across his room on his own!!! He continues to be a real clown. Deborah had a cold last week, and when he came home he kept picking up his wet wipes and pretending to blow his nose in them like he had seen her do with tissues all day. He also does this really funny fake laugh when he is around a group of people who are laughing about something. It is SO funny (I wish you could hear it because talking about it just doesn't do it justice.)

Well, I've got a busy Thursday and Friday at work, and then a roaming Christmas party to host on Saturday, so I'd better run. Have a great Thursday!

Love,
Laura
