On the last Wednesday of every month I'm linking up with Shay to answer these questions:
1. What we're eating this week...
EVERYTHING! lol, its Thanksgiving!
2. What I'm reminiscing about...
Halloween with my babies. You can read more about it here.
Last weekend my BFFs husband surprised his wifey, and new mommy, with a spa day. I was so happy to share this time with her. We enjoyed a nice brunch, massage and champagne toast! Being a new momma isn't easy, but she's rocking it!

3. What I'm loving...
Vincent had one of his first homework assignments this month and it was to decorate the turkey so the farmer couldn't find him. He wanted to dress him like Chewbacca, and I think he did a great job!
Our little man is obsessed with Star Wars, which means that Arianna is too. This picture is both of them wearing their Star Wars gear to school one day.
4. What we've been up to...
We spent a fun Wine and Dine race weekend at Disney. We had the best time! Mike wants to do it every year now :) Vincent did the kids fun run, and loved it!
(waking up at 3am to catch the bus - NOT FUN!)
5. What I'm dreading...
Putting all of the Christmas decorations away. Since we are out of town for Thanksgiving, I put them up early this year, and Vincent was super into it. I usually keep them up until after the new year. I hate taking them down, but am usually ready to get the house back in order.
6. What I'm working on...
Gasparilla training starts next month. It's two races, over two days. 15k and 8k. A little more than a half marathon, but not all at once, which I think makes it more doable. Doing another 5k tomorrow for Thanksgiving, I think I've got that distance down. Long runs start this week.
7. What I'm excited about...
I hit a huge fitness goal this month! I have been taking Pure Barre classes since after Vincent was born, but recently incorporating them more regularly into my fitness routine. This month I entered the 100 Club, and I am so proud of myself!
8. What I'm watching/reading...
This month I finished, After You. It took me a while to get into the sequel, but the end had me on the edge of my seat, just like the first. I would recommend this book and looking forward to the next book coming out soon.
With my book club, we read (or listened to) The Couple Next Door. Not only does the author spell her name the same way as me, but she keeps the suspense and audience guessing until the very end. I didn't really like the end of the book, but enjoyed the rest.
Obsessed with "This is Us" - I knew Kate was going to lose the baby, but I hope that the writers help her recover in a way that will touch so many that I know who've also experienced the devastation of miscarriage.
9. What I'm listening to...
Loving Lady Gaga's new song, "The Cure" - I'll fix you with my love...if we could fix the world with love, what an amazing place it would be. I've loved this song for a while, and didn't know it was her who sang it. Added it to my new 5k playlist :)
11. What I'm doing this weekend...
Reflecting back on everything we have to be thankful for in our lives. Relaxing and spending time with Mike's family. Also watching the biggest rivalry in college football, FSU vs UF. My Noles have had a lackluster season, but if they could end it on a high note by beating the Gators, that would make my soul happy.
12. What I'm looking forward to next month...
Christmas with my family and all of the fun activities we get to share with family and friends! These pictures are from Christmas last year, and my babies have grown so much since then!

13. What else is new...
We've been to the doctor three times in the last two weeks with our sweet girl, and now Daddy and Vincent have colds. Even when she's been under the weather, we've still been able to make the most of the season with her.
Thanksgiving lunches at the kids school...

Recently, I've discovered that I will never be able to get a good picture of both of my kids at the same time again. Once one is done being grumpy, then the other one starts to pick their nose...
They've found a new hiding spot...
This year we are planning for our elf to come back the morning of the 1st and surprise the kids with tickets on the Polar Express! I know I am so excited just thinking about this. My favorite thing is when ChiChi, as Vincent and Mike named him a few years ago, first makes his appearance. We always bring a special treat and re-read the book. This picture is from a few years ago. I have to admit, I'm not always the most creative with his lookout locations, so I'm looking forward to today's link-up for more ideas.
