We had a fantastic Thanksgiving with a visit from Grammy and Pop who brought Peyton, Ella, and Seleste. It may have only been Thanksgiving, but it sure felt as good as Christmas to Simone. Before they even arrived, Simone asked me if they could stay at her house forever. lol!

| While "the feast"--Simone's newest holiday reference-- was being prepared the girls went outside to bounce around the yard. The weather has certainly cooperated all weekend -- a beautiful day. |

| of course, another obligatory princess show |
After a bit of black Friday shopping for the mommies, we headed over to Reston Town Center for their holiday parade. A very festive kick off to the holiday season!
And last but not least, the event the girls had been waiting for.... somehow, someway -- I'm claiming temporary insanity-- the girls convinced us to take a trip to the American Girl Store (a first for Simone's cousins) ON BLACK FRIDAY. They all scored some new clothes for their bitty babies, and then went and piled on Santa's lap to relay to him the rest of their wish lists. Oddly enough, there was no line for Santa pictures. I guess no one else was brave/crazy enough to bring kids to Tysons Corner on black Friday.
I really don't know where kids get all their energy. The adults can barely move and the girls are taking an after dinner swim as I type. Incredible. But we had an amazing Thanksgiving packed full of fun for everyone.
