A Fun Little End to November

...oh, November,

I liked you very much.

If I had to describe the past couple of weeks, it would go a little like this:

city walks

art projects

mailing calendars!

two toothbrushes in the toothbrush cup

birthday surprise squeals

is that a candle in a cupcake walking my way?

the best group of friends

introductions

stories

 belly laughs

cake

another piece of cake

late night talks

early wake-up calls

a see-you-soon goodbye that still made me cry

magazine time in the airport terminal

happy hellos

family hugs

fireplace warmth

first glass of egg nog this year

thanksgiving blessings

delicious homemade feast

dancing & giggling children

comparing pinkies

sister sleepovers

 staying up until 1AM talking about boys

leopard-print jammies

sappy girly movie day

{first time seeing: An Affair to Remember, Steel Magnolias, & Beaches}

my wonderful Papa & Nana

listening to Nana's hilarious opinion of the Kardashians

playing Santa with Mom

a Breaking Dawn, Part 1 date

car ride

train ride

cab ride

hoisting my overstuffed suitcase up the stairs

and into my little

home.
