Three weeks in Texas.

Matthew is the best for letting me spend three weeks with family. I had great quality time with my nieces, Marissa, the rest of the family and even got see some friends along the way. It was much needed and I'm grateful that I got to spend so much time in Texas. 

Things I did/happened...

• Cora was born!
• Spent a week with Marissa and the girls. I love that I was around for Cora's first three weeks of life. 
• Quality time with Z included playing at the park, making carmel corn, gymnastics and just being silly at home. 
• Matthew flew in for Thanksgiving. He met baby Cora and had too much fun with Z. He was seriously her favorite for those days he was around. 
• Lunch with friends. So great to catch up with all of them.
• Lunch with Paris, Jake, and Jaxen.
• When the parents weren't working we were having fun at the movie theater or eating yummy dinners.
• Spent time with both sets of Grandparents. Grandpa Robb makes the best fires. We made smores.
• Thanksgiving! We had an early dinner with the Rigg's family and then had a little dinner over at Marissa and Ryan's. We were stuffed! 
• I'm so thankful for Matthew in my life. He is my rock. 

We went to Orange County for Thanksgiving.

We had a wonderful yet quick and simple Thanksgiving. We have so much to be thankful for and happy were able to get away from work and spend the holiday with family.

T is for...

Texas. Thanksgiving. Turkey. Thankful.

We always have a great time spending the holidays with family and this trip didn't disappoint. We had a delicious Thanksgiving dinner. 30+ people of the Riggs bunch made it complete. Matthew, Dad and Ryan topped their day by attending the Dallas Cowboys game. All 3 had a pretty eventful first NFL experience. Matthew had a blast and wants to make it a bi-annual tradition. We will see :)

The last two days of our trip was filled with shopping, ICE - Charlie Brown Christmas at the Gaylord, Scentsy party, a Richmond gathering and dinner at Truluck's. We had a fun time with family and miss them already.

There are so many things to be thankful for. I am thankful for...
