Thanksgiving In Virginia Part I

Happy Happy Thanksgiving! I hope everyone had an amazing time with their family!  We headed to Virginia to spend time with both sets of parents and couldn't have asked for more. 

When we got into to town we had a quick visit with my parents and then headed down to the farm to be with M's family. Wednesday we hung around, did some skeet shooting, and just really enjoyed being unplugged!

Somehow I let M convince me to run a Turkey Trot Thursday morning....I mean really?  I ran the 2 mile with my SIL & FIL while M and my BIL ran the 5 mile. The kids came and watched us at the end and Hudson even crossed the finish line with both of us!

Emma and Hudson then ran a little 100 yard dash which was really cute!

After we all showered it was time for tractor rides with Uncle Lee :)

We headed back to my parents and I'll share those pictures tomorrow!

Pumpkin Carving

I swear I will get caught up soon!!! Only 1 workday for me and then it is Thanksgiving break! Cannot wait for some yummy turkey and broccoli casserole!! 


Here are the pictures of M and Hudson carving our pumpkin! I think M had more fun because he got to use power tools :)

Back To Work: Week 1

Well I made it through week 1 and am halfway through week 2 and as a whole everybody is adjusting well.  Hudson had a little bit of a hard adjustment being away from mommy but he sure made up for it this weekend with lots of snuggles and just overall cuteness...kid knows how to work it.

M and I need to get into a better meal planning routine, we had a decent one before it just needs to be tweaked a little bit but it'll have to wait until after Thanksgiving! Speaking of dinner, last night Hudson sang the grace that they say at school and I cried big ole proud mama tears it was adorable.

I am loving the girls in my office they are all super nice and easy going which is wonderful! They are helping me learn the ropes and being patient as I learn all the finance lingo.

Only 3 more workdays until I am on my way to see family and I could not be more excited!

Here are some of the outfits I've worn, my wardrobe really needs an update so that 1st paycheck is already burning a hole in my pocket!
