Great Holiday

Well it's been a while since my last post. I had my MRI done on Wednesday and I should find out the results this Wednesday 12/3. So I will let you know what we find out.

Eric and I had a great Thanksgiving. My brother stayed with us Wednesday and Thursday night. We went to Eric's parents house on Thursday and took my brother with us. Our parents unfortunately had to work Thanksgiving so he spent it with us and Eric's side of the family. We had a great time. We had a huge meal and then spent the afternoon baking. My brother even participated in the baking extravaganza! We made turtles, buckeyes, mexican wedding cakes, fudge, mini pecan pies, cinnamon rolls, carmel rolls and cookies! It was a lot of fun learning to make new things ( I am not much of a cook, let alone a baker!) So his family and my brother enjoyed teaching me to make things. The buckeyes were an experience, I am pretty sure I had quite a bit of powdered sugar on my clothes and on the counter ( I wonder how much actually ended up in the buckeyes?!) Oh well it was fun to say the least!

We then spent Friday and Saturday with my parents, my brother and my nephew. Friday we went to Pizza Hut for dinner and then Dad took Eric, my brother and me bowling! I haven't bowled in a while and I beat my brother both games, which never happens, so that was a lot of fun (although I am not so sure how happy he was to get beat by his little sister not once but twice!) Then Saturday my mom made Thanksgiving dinner. We then took my nephew who is 2 to see Madagascar 2. It was fun to watch him, he had never been to the movies before! He did really well though and seemed to enjoy it!

We had a lot of fun but I am thankful that the holiday is over for now! It is always nice to have a break from school, unfortunately that break was so busy I need a break to recover from my break! But studying awaits me for my test tomorrow! The end is near, just a few more weeks until the semester is over.

I went back on my lifestyle change full force today. I have really been struggling with this for a while now. I have been helping Mindy get started on her new lifestyle change this week, however feeling guilty because I hadn't been doing it myself! So thanks to Mindy, I am back on board! I need to do this for me, but I also need to do this so that I can continue to help others and glorify God. I will continue to update on the progress! I am hoping to start exercising today as well! I will let you know how that goes!

I hope everyone had a great holiday! Talk to you all soon!
