Thanksgiving Vacation

Wow, it's been awhile since I posted. Ben and I took vacation last week and headed home to enjoy the holiday with our family. We won't be able to make it back for Christmas this year, so we wanted to have a nice, relaxing visit for Thanksgiving. We spent the first half with my family and then went on to see Ben's side. We ate way too much food and saw lots of our friends and family. It was just wonderful. Ben even got to go hunting; which he has been looking forward to for such a long time. We miss everyone already!
While we were at my house, we found a pile of limestone that was free for the taking. Back at home, people carve limestone posts with their names as outdoor decoration. Benj has been wanting to make a stone for one of his friends for several years now and this seemed like the perfect opportunity. He picked out a stone, smoothed it off, stenciled on the letters, carved it out, and then painted it in. I'm so impressed. It looks really good!


We made it here last night and are back to the old routine. Ben started a month of orthopedics today. He caught a nasty cold these last few days, so hopefully he can shake that soon. I continue to feel good and can't believe how fast time is flying by. We got our house all decorated for Christmas last night. I'll have to post pictures of our tree next time. Hope everyone had as good of a Thanksgiving break as we did!
