thankful

Jingle Jubilee flat wore me out and I've been slowly crawling out of hibernation! It doesn't help that I developed yet another cold post Jingle. That left me in bed during most of my holiday weekend but I didn't let it slow me down too much.

The Sunday after JJ we took the annual Radcliffe family Christmas card picture - always a task, but a fun one at that! So, first, I am thankful for my family!

My Thanksgiving was spent in Tallahassee and we had a fabulous time. It was my first big holiday away from my family {only causing a minor mini-meltdown Thanksgiving morning!} but it was spent with soon-to-be new family. And for that I am grateful in so many ways.

We had a delicious meal and a wonderful day. I slept through the Macy's parade as usual and then dined on the best baked turkey I've ever had - made by David, our resident chef. It was a smaller turkey, brined, stuffed with citrus and rosemary and it was out of this world moist and flavorful!! I am thankful for food and for David....not necessarily in that order ;)

oooh...and david also made brussell sprouts! my first ever and they were really good the way he roasted them.

ah, game day. we all know how it ended. saturday was cold, but beautiful, in tallahassee. I was pretty miserable but stopped by the tailgate for a while and then headed home to a warm house and the couch during the game.

The rest of the holiday weekend was pretty low key. Lots of much needed sleeping and not any shopping! We had fun with family friends in town for the game and some fun UF/FSU parties.

I hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving full of God's blessings and bounties!
