Thanksgiving trees - a fiery yellow & orange glow












Hard to believe it was just a week ago that I was once again up in Williamsburg, Va for Thanksgiving with the kids along with Page and Jack. I flew up as usual, but stayed at a hotel since it was my turn to do so this year. What a great find! It literally was within walking distance of the townhouse and, an unexpected bonus, it afforded me some quiet, totally by myself time. (Was able to enjoy reading the second book in the "Hunger Games" trilogy on my Nook, one of my best purchases ever! I'm refering to the Nook) The weather was so mild that I actually sat on the porch outside with feet bare in the grass to do some earthing. It was great to have all of us together. Sadly, between our jobs and art, I rarely get to see Page. With Travis and Emory so far away, I get to spend time with them even more rarely. Emory, always the fantastic cook, prepared another scrumptious meal with a fun pumpkin roll for desert. Travis and I ventured out into Black Friday madness (which I didn't find to be as terrible as I feared - must have been the company! ), successfully finding a pair of shoes for me  and he a Christmas present for Emory while Em, Page and Jack went to the theatre to see the movie on Lincoln by Spielburg. Up on Wed, back that Sat afternoon- easy, peasy, quick and fun. Just 3 and half weeks till the kids are here for Christmas! Whoo-hoo! And, much to do in the meantime! haha
