Happy Thanksgiving from my family to yours!

Friday November 24th

Today Shaun had an appointment to see a specialist up at DHMC (good news he is totally fine)!  Since I was able to drop the other two off with a friend, I took advantage of the time to have some one on one with the middle child!  We toured the hospital that Dad trained in while at medical school and then had lunch at one of my old favorite places, Ramuntos!  

Mom and Shaun's Day of Fun!

GARLIC KNOTS!

And eggplant Pizza!

That night it was time to let the Christmas festivaties begin!  The boys began writing out their Christmas lists while we brought all the decorations down from the attic!

Saturday November 25th

Changing up tradition a bit due to our busy schedules and headed to the Derry parade instead of the Salem parade!  After the parade was over we headed over to the town hall where they were offering free Christmas activities!

52 Weeks ~ 2017: Week 45

Week 45: update includes David's first middle school play and going to see the new Marvel movie, Thor!

Friday November 10th

I went to photograph David in his first middle school play.  He had 4 small rolls, he was a citizen, sloth, a coconut guy and his main roll was the Nun's Priest.  He did a fantastic job in all his rolls, but I busted out laughing for his roll as Sloth.
