Holiday Art And A Sneak Peek

Sophia has been busy creating holiday art.  She draws and colors at school and spends her spare time at home doing the same thing.  She also began counting down the days until Christmas at the end of November.  She definitely has a severe case of Holiday Spirit.  Here’s her latest creation.

We did a quick photo shoot in the backyard this past weekend to get pictures for our holiday card.  Here’s a peek at one of the photos that we will be using this year.

Thanksgiving, Skating and Bentleyville

We had quite the Thanksgiving weekend.  Three days of food, family and fun.  Since we didn’t eat and visit enough with Mike’s family on Thursday and Friday, we spent Saturday afternoon at my brother’s house for more turkey and conversation.

Here’s the recap of the weekend:

Day #1 – Thanksgiving – Not many pictures from this day.  Too busy cooking, eating and cleaning up.

Day #2 – Skating at the DECC

All twelve Sullivans, plus our friends, The Pellers, embarked on the DECC to skate off the turkey and dessert ingested the day before.  We had a great time skating, shooting pucks and watching Mike P. make a skate train with the kids.

Day #3 – Say Goodbye to the Cities Sullivans – Say Hello to the Johnsons

Mike spent part of the morning deep-frying a turkey to take to my brother’s house.  After the Cities Sullivans left, we headed over the my brother’s for Thanksgiving with my side of the family.  We had a chance to see some nieces and nephews that we hadn’t seen in a while, including Adam and Ana who are expecting their first baby in April.  Congratulations to you both!

We were all pretty tired by the end of the day, but grateful that we had family and friends to share our Thanksgiving weekend with.
