- Sunday the 20th, I hosted my first family Thanksgiving at my house for 30 people! Everything turned out great (a little later than I planned to pull everything together but it was a success)! I even cooked my first turkey (21 pounds) and ham (10 pounds) and everything seemed to think they tasted good so I was happy! (Thanks Melissa for the recipes!) Click here for the Turkey Recipe.
- Monday the 21st, Lauren went back to the dentist for her 2nd filling (and last hopefully) and did great! I stayed home with her that day and we enjoyed some mommy daughter time!

- Saturday the 26th, I went Christmas shopping with my girls Jen and Lori and got some awesome deals at Kohls! We were supposed to go to St Louis for the weekend but Sue was not feeling well so we stayed home and gave our tickets to Spencer. It was a great weekend!
- Sunday the 27th, we celebrated Mimi's 90th birthday! The full Ellison clan was there and it was great to see everyone!
- Lauren is taking dance every Wednesday night in Tontitown and loving it!
