The Most Wonderful Time of the Year! No, not Christmas.

Hey y’all!
I hope you all had an awesome weekend. I felt pretty yucky this weekend, so aside from running out to watch the disasterous OU game with some friends, I laid in bed watching old episodes of Grey’s Anatomy. It was nice.
I’m hoping the sickies will leave me alone, because today is the beginning of one of my most favorite weeks of the year! As much as I do enjoy Christmas, Thanksgiving week has definitely become one of my most favorite holidays. For those of you who weren’t around for last year’s fun Thanksgiving posts, I’ll give you a quick run-down.
My great-grandparents used to live in a teeny-tiny town in southeast Oklahoma. After they passed away, our family decided to keep their old house. Every year, our whole family gathers at the house for Thanksgiving week. All of the out of state folks stay at the house, and since my parents and grandparents live about 30 minutes away, we all drive down each day. The house is seriously out in the middle of nowhere. There’s no phone, no cell service, no internet, and there’s only TV if the guys can get the dish put in exactly the right place. We sit around and eat and play Phase 10 and eat and run around taking goofy pictures and eat! :)
This year, the bro and I are headed down for the fun on Tuesday afternoon and will be there through the weekend. Not sure how much I’ll be around blog land because I will only have blog and Twit access in the evening when I’m back at home. I’ve got some posts scheduled for the week, so here’s a little preview of what I’ll be up to!
Dinner with Bekah!
Fun time with my bestie!
Craziness with the cousins

Jessica, her momma Jana, her aunt G, and I are going to see Jacob, because really, what other reason is there to go see that movie?

I’ll be eating waaaaaaaaay too much food!
And, getting lots of Sweet P snuggles!
I can’t wait for some relaxing time with some of my favorite people ever! It’s gonna be great!
I hope y’all have an awesome week!
