Shane’s making garlic mashed potatoes and Chloe’s making an apple pie with Andrew. Our thanksgiving tradition.

Chloe had to ice her ankle and elevate it but she still managed to bake! For the rest of the day, she was ensconced in the green couch with a book and rested.

My mother-in-law came early and she got roped into helping out with the pie. I think she felt bad watching how slowly (and unsteady) Andrew was peeling the apples…

I had a lovely lunch with this amazing beautiful ladies. They are my prayer warriors! So blessed to call them my sisters in Christ.

@starbucks… Chloe’s favorite

Kids are busy after school with mathnasium, Taekwando, piano, guitar, basketball, girls scout, PT, and sometimes, routine doctor’s appts, and dentist/orthdontist… Kids needed this special treat, happy hour today to fuel through the rest of the day. You guys are awesome kids!

I made spaghetti alle vongole and salad with roasted butternut squash for dinner tonight.

I took Chloe and her friend shopping to the mall on a Saturday night. Those smiles make the 4 hours in the crowded mall experience very worth it.

My mom deserves the best wife award. She made homemade food every single day to bring to my dad while he was in hospital and cared for him with such love. Mom, you are awesome.

We are @ New York University this morning because Chloe’s performing at The Youth Music Festival this afternoon. She’s playing a duet, a piece called, All for One, One for All, composed by a NYU student. She’s been working hard for the last two months and we are so excited for this opportunity. Youth Music Festival is a collaborative way of sharing original new music by student composers at NYU, played by young musicians and their teachers.
