Happy Thanksgiving!

As my dad reminded me recently, the saying 'life is what happens while you are busy making other plans" could not be more true this thanksgiving. I had big plans. Lots of baking and cooking, hosting a Thanksgiving breakfast brunch for our friends, spending time with my family, black friday shopping, putting up christmas decorations...we were going to be busy...and then life happened. The week of Thanksgiving, while out on one of his daily 6 mile runs (we can discuss how nutty that is later), Todd felt the slightest pull on his back.  What was initially just an annoyance turned into a pretty serious muscle strain that literally left him crippled, on the floor and sedated. He literally couldn't move and therefore neither could our plans. Poor guy. We made the best of it though, instead of brunch with friends we just had a big family breakfast and thanks to some last minute shopping enjoyed a small Thanksgiving at home just the three of us. In the end, I still went black Friday shopping and even got a wreath up or two ;).
