Happy Thanksgiving!!!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful Thanksgiving! I am sure you all are wondering why I am blogging and not spending time with family and of course... eating? Well Mitch had to work today, so we are not heading to Tulsa until tonight after he gets off. We are celebrating Thanksgiving with ALL of my family tomorrow! So today doesn't really feel much like Thanksgiving to me. It stinks he had to work, but he gets off Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Years Eve and day!! So it works out perfect! He is buddy-buddy with the lady who makes the schedules, and somehow that doesn't surprise me :) Well we have had a pretty relaxing week. On Tuesday, I started feeling bad. I had a bad sore throat and the aches...no fun! But I'm starting to feel better. That night we went to On The Border for dinner, then walked around the mall. We also went to Best Buy and their have been these two guys that are camping for black Friday since last Sunday!! Thats a little much for me!
Yesterday Mitch had to work, and I still wasn't feeling that great so I just hung around the house an did some cooking for this weekend.
We are headed to Tulsa tonight and I am so excited to see all of my family! Since August, we have been in that Dave Ramsey class on Sundays from 4-6pm, and now that we don't have it it is so nice to stay the whole weekend and not have to hurry up and get back. We have been out of the class for 2 weeks now and we are still doing really good. It is so easy to slip away and not follow the principles we learned, but we are still right on track. I think after we really saw how if we stick with this after beginning it at such a young age, it will pay off! Everyone in our class tells us how lucky that we are to have this class at the age of 22. It is tough, but looking back it has been the biggest blessing for us. I just can't even imagine if we would have passed it up. Our church offers this class twice a year and the next session is starting in January and once you pay for the class, you can go to any class forever. We had people in our class going through it for the second time. It will be nice if we need a refresher or later on in life we can take our children through it. At the beginning of each session they have a speaker that has went through it before come and talk to class about how much it has impacted their life and Mitch and I were asked to speak to the next class. I feel like I have so much to say and I am so excited to be able to share with others how much this has and will continue to impact our lives. I am not the biggest public speaker, but being able to share what God is doing in our lives through this class will be easy and it is such an awesome opportunity.
Well the weather here is crazy!! Yesterday it was warm and now it is 30 degrees!! I hate cold weather!! On days we go to Tulsa, I get up and drive Mitch to work and then go pick him up because his hospital is right by the highway to Tulsa and it just saves a lot of time and gas. I got home this morning around 6:45 and it has been pouring ever since!! I fell asleep for a little bit and I guess I was unaware the rain had changed to sleet. About a hour ago I looked outside and our back porch and all the trees are covered in ice and it looks like no sign of stopping. So Mitch told me to come to the hospital before it gets dark since the roads are suppose to get bad. So here in about an hour or two I am headed to hang out at the hospital until he gets off!  Pretty fun way to spend your Thanksgiving... don't be too jealous of me :)
Well I hope you all are enjoying time with family and friends!! I just love this time of year!
