Thankful Thanksgiving Countdown - November 7th  

Posted by Amber in , , , , , ,

My Dad made breakfast of French toast and bacon. My Dad makes awesome breakfasts. They make me happy. Also, I love the toast at their house. So yummy! 


Matt helped Mari and Ryan move some stuff and then unload the rest of their truck at their storage shed. That afternoon, we went to Furniture Row to look at couches, dining sets, and kids' beds. We found a potential couch and table, but no kid bed. 

Gloria picked up a cake at Costco. Henlie was so excited it had a dinosaur on it! She kind of loves dinosaurs haha. She'll still tell you about her dinosaur cake, too.

We also had family over for cake for Henlie's birthday. Henlie has sort of enjoyed a "birthday month" between festivities at El Hornero a couple of days before, birthday wishes on her birthday, a present from Grandma Biggs the day after, presents from Mom and Dad after her birthday back in the US, cake here the weekend after her birthday, and singing and a present from Aunt Lynell the weekend after that. I think she has rather enjoyed it. 

 Happy girl with her dinosaur cake, crayon candles, and birthday song!

She blew them out in one go!

Video of the singing and her blowing out the candles.

Henlie "reads" her card from Grandma and Grandpa Erdmann.

Other than that, we had a fairly relaxing day until we went to the store after putting Andrew down. Andrew didn't stay asleep, poor guy. My other sisters made it over later too, so we let Henlie stay up and play while we all hung out. It was so nice to hang out with family.

Other thankful bonuses:
Super yummy dinner. The meatballs were really good :)

Aunt Joanie was there for Time Out for Women. Bonus family!

We got to visit with Uncle Nolan in the morning for a bit. This was an extra blessing as he has since been hospitalized after having multiple strokes.
