Thanksgiving Weekend

Quinn was here for Thanksgiving. It was another hectic visit for him. I feel bad because my family has good intentions by wanting to see him, but we only have a few days so everything is crammed into 3 days. It gets tiring and I feel bad that he can't just relax while he's here. We still had a pretty good time. Quinn is done in 2 1/2 weeks. We just went about 3 months without seeing each other so 2 1/2 weeks should be pretty easy. I only have a couple pictures, but I figured I'd post them since I haven't had any pictures with him recently.

So we attended another wedding this weekend. My sister's childhood friend got married and it was a really fun time. Not much to say except there was an appearance by Michael himself. haha. Just some pictures from the night:

Halloween

Since I don't have any small children of my own to dress up, I dressed myself. Unfortunately, I didn't plan on going out until an hour before so I had to throw something together. I went out with a few friends and we had a pretty good time.
