Happy Thanksgiving from Sunny Southern California.

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

We’re having a great time in California. It was literally 80 degrees today so we spent a couple hours poolside lounging in the sun. Not a bad way to start Thanksgiving.

We’re staying at the Embassy Suites which has comfortable beds, free breakfast for the kiddos, a hot tub {sqeee!}, and the obvious but awesome: a television. I haven’t watched live TV since May when I banned it from the house.

I got to watch this show last night real time:

Booyah.

These guys hung out with me on the couch {the rooms are all two-room suites} while I indulged my teenage self,

and this one proved she’s more like me every single day by staying up well past her bedtime reading a new library book.

These toiletries are my new favorite, look how stylish and fun.

And the soap? It makes me happy.

But the best part of spending a vacation away from home with my family? Clowning around with these hooligans on someone else’s property.

Happy Thanksgiving from my hotel room to your home.

4 Julie {Angry Julie Monday} November 29, 2009 at 4:03 pm: I hope you had a great time here in So Cal. The weather was beautiful and perfect.
5 Petit Elefant November 29, 2009 at 7:45 pm: Donna,
I'm not looking forward to coming back to the frozen tundra, not at all. I could get used to beach living in a real hurry.
emerzim,
I must be! I love it here!
KJ,
I can't even fathom watching Glee with my own parents, and the thought of watching it with the in-laws makes me squirm.
Angry Julie,
Oh, I'm LOVING it, having an absolute ball! I bribed the weatherman so things have been great.
