Thanksgiving

The McBean told us yesterday that he is thankful for "pumpkins and leaves." I am thankful that he is doing well in school. I am thankful for the wonderful teachers, aides, and staff that work with our McBean. He is doing great in reading and coming along with math. He is doing well with memorizing his "doubles" in addition.

We are heading to Lake Orion for turkey day with my Mom and Dad. My sister and her family will be there. The McBean is very excited to spend time with his cousins. He keeps saying, "It's almost Thanksgiving" and checking the dates on the calendar. My brother and his fiance will be there as well. Just missing Dr. Aunt, who has to work. I am excited for us to be together. It will be crazy, but fun.

I am looking forward to having some girly time with my nieces.
