This Wednesday we start our Advent calendar countdown. Stay tuned, more excitement to come....
Being a mom is such and amazing gift, the only thing you must always keep in the back of your mind is that they are only small once. Life is always rushing around us, but you must take the time to cherish every moment you have as a family.

Holidays
This is my absolute FAVORITE time of year! I just love the glistening Christmas lights, the smell of cookies in the oven, the adorable knit hats for little ones, the chill in the air, and just the mood of those you are around. Our house welcomed our "Elf on the Shelf" on Thanksgiving morning. Isabel was shaking with excitement! This year Santa sent her a girl elf which Izze named Snow. Snow watches Izze over the next month taking note of the good and bad things she does. Snow then "magically" reports to Santa each night. Drew and I LOVE our little elf Snow, she brings out the best in Izze.

One of those days!
Have you ever had one of those days where you forget to actually sit down? Today was one of those days. I am 7 months pregnant and worked my buns off from 7am until 5pm. It actually hurts to sit down if you can believe that. My doctor appointment went well despite my high blood pressure (go figure).
The Halbesma's are looking forward to hosting Thanksgiving this Thursday for 22 people (the last time I counted). It should be a nice event and despite the work, I do enjoy having family to our home.
Hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving! Please know that I am thankful for you!
