Thanksgiving was SOOOO good!! The food was excellent and we were blessed with the company of my Pawpaw, his wife, Aunt Debbie, Aunt Darlene, and Andrew and Jackie. Plus my parents and our little family of 4. We had way too much food and TONS left over, but it was all fantastic :)
Friday night Raegan had Nutcracker dress rehearsal. I've yet to load the photos from her show, but it all went quite well. There were 2 showings on Saturday (2pm and 7pm). At the 2 o'clock show there were some 'technical' troubles and wouldn't you know that when the curtain dropped, my child was stuck on the wrong side staring the audience in the face trying to figure out how to get backstage with the rest of the little mice. Apparently a stage-mom helped her out though. It was totally hilarious! The 7 show went much better all the way around...no technical difficulties and all the children landed in the right place LOL. Raegan got a bouquet of pink roses from daddy, a pretty orchid corsage from Aunt Bit (darlene) and a Christmas tree plant from Gramma and Poppa. She was totally excited :) Kind of weird to see my baby in make-up though!
Chuck's mom(Pat) and her boyfriend (Frank) came all the way from Chicago to see Miss Raegan in her ballet debut! We thought that was nice, and actually added to the excitement for missy. How nice!
Sunday we drove down to Key Largo (with Pat and Frank) to go on a boat ride only to find out it was cancelled after we arrived. So we just went ahead and drove down to Key West :) It was nice, Chuck got soaked by rain going to get the van. We had a nice time though and it was a neat place to have seen in our time here in FL (can cross that off the list).
Monday I took off work and we all went up to Epcot for the day. It was lovely, nice and cool outside and overall a nice day. The decorations were pretty and the kids were really good.
Tuesday evening we had everyone over (MIL leaves Friday) for Chuck's famous Moroccan Chicken dinner. It was excellent and nice to spend time with everyone....today nothing special...had some Greek food for lunch (Pat, Frank, Chuck, and I), and tonight we'll probably just grab pizza because we're planning to put the tree up tonight!! Yay!
That's about it! Next post should have lots of pics....

Sounds like it's been eventful. So glad to hear about Rae's performance. Good to know my mom was there for me! How's Logan?
Logan's doing well, he's got the sniffles right now, but all in all he's "Logan". He's such a little character he keeps me smiling with all his expressions and his random 'I love you Mommy' comments. He's so cute :)
