November this year has been so amazing for me! So much has happened for everyone in my family! As all or most of you know we are expecting baby number 2 and couldn't be more excited about it. We never would have thought it would have happened so fast. We literally tried for 2 weeks and then bam a positive pregnancy test! When we told Rylee about it she was so cute. She kept going around saying "Im going to have a brother or sister." of course we are hoping for a boy, but if another girl comes we will be just as happy! Our plan was to keep this pregnancy a secret till about 12 weeks, but our sweet little Rylee started to break the news a little early:) After random people finding out we decided that the parents should know also. Rylee and I decorated a shoe box for my mom and on the inside we wrote Yay Grandma (that's what my mom has always said to her grand kids) and then put the pregnancy test below it. Her face was priceless! She never expected it cause I had taken a test about 4 days before she opened it and she knew I had gotten a negative. All she said was "oh Yay Grandma." then about 30 seconds later noticed the test under it. It was great, I loved seeing her face!

The next great thing about November was James moving to Germany. Yes a sad thing, but an awesome thing also. He is experiencing the most amazing journey that not many people get to experience. All that he is waiting for is his wife and daughter to move there too. We are all hoping they get there passports SOON so they can spend their 1 year anniversary together. Thanksgiving this year was a little weird without him, but as my mom and I say we are so Thankful for Skype! If we didn't have that I don't know how our Thanksgiving would have been.

Another thing to top November off was my cousins and my cousins fiance coming from cali to spend Thanksgiving with us. Its always really good seeing them and spending time with them. Not only did they come, but they pretty much got to meet their dad for the first time! (my moms brother) and the rest of us reunited with him after 15 years or more. It was so great and so glad that he was able to make it! I have so much to be grateful/ and thankful for this year. It just seems like year after year your list of things to be thankful for just keep getting bigger and bigger! Hope everyone had an awesome November like I did. Cant wait to see what December brings:)
