Our Thanksgiving did not go as planned. We were originally planning our holiday break with a visit to Arizona for some Ikea shopping, Twilight watching, Birthday bashing, and Giants cheering. But the day we were supposed to leave, Noah and Luke decided the stomach flu would be more entertaining than a vacation. So we decided to wait it out, and hoped that it would just be a 24 hour bug. So when they were feeling better we were packed and planning to leave the next morning, until 4 am rolled around and I joined the sick, with a date around the toilet. So my poor little Johnny called for reinforcement from my mom and the two of them took care of the kids, while Noah and I lied lifeless in bed all day. 
To make a long story short, John and my mom were able to finally make it to AZ just in time for Katelyn’s Birthday party. And then John and my brother were able to go to see THE GIANTS play the Cardinals. He has been looking forward to this game all year. He had great seats, with a good size crowd of NY fans around him. He had such a fun time, that he is planning another game for next season.
"GO GIANTS"
It was a whirlwind of a holiday. I just hope this Christmas season is in good health and unhurried, because Thanksgiving came and went way too fast!

I was able to heal just in time for my birthday.
But Noah didn’t really regain his 2 year old peppy personality, and on Thanksgiving morning we were just about out the door, with green bean casseroles in hand, when he decided to get sick all over again. So my glorious mom came to the rescue again. She came over to watch Noah, so I could go to Thanksgiving dinner and visit with my cousins.
Dinner and all the decorations were beautiful, but some how I only managed two pictures.
The rest of the weekend went better, with far less puke. Andrea brought her big jumping balloon, which kept the kids entertained all weekend. And I was finally able to meet Todd’s girlfriend. (She gave me an awesome haircut, thanks Kat) And my lovely brother Eric fixed my computer so that it now functions at a faster speed and blogging won’t be such a pain.
