This is it, Thanksgiving week! Hopefully you have everything planned for dinner and have started your cooking day prep. House cleaning is a must on the agenda, but with two little tornados following me through the house, it's usually something I save untill the night before to do while they are in bed. The holidays are so nice for spending time with the family and the weekend after for resting after all the excitment but, theres always something fun to do. Here's what's happening this weekend.
