711-722

711 david asked me if i wanted to ride with him to sara's for thanksgiving. these small things capture. my. heart. 712 those 20 minutes to rockford, priceless, with the boy man who i love more and more 713 the pride i feel when my brother describes his work, the motivation he feels now - when i knew the boy 4 years ago who feared the unknown ahead, with no drive, and now - passion, pride, and planning for the future. my next sister-in-law is one lucky girl. 714 a meticulous tablecloth drawing, addi illustrating and describing 6 of us in her own words, with her own extravagant imagination 715 piled on the brand new corner couch with all the boys and the kids coming and going, climbing and laughing 716 watching football on thanksgiving, house full, joy full 717 natalie's little baby smile in that pink/orange/maroon-striped dress 718 wiggles. as sara + addi have exclusively been calling him 719 addie. with an e. because i remember my tami phase in 5th grade. 720 sleepover with my girl. this 8-year-old (really?) who has become one of my favorite buddies. and the dialogue, real thoughts from a little lady, nail polish, banana ice cream, movies 721 peanut asking for a 3rd movie when she just barely made it through the 2nd 722 the coming-together of that meal this afternoon. 1 dish each, each thanksgiving staple accounted for, colorful + satisfied plates
