We should always find ways to celebrate the little things in life. What better day to celebrate these little things than the best day of the week? So, here are the things that make this a Fabulous Friday for me this week.

- CONNOR’S COMING HOME – For the first time since he left on August 13th, Connor is coming home for Thanksgiving break. I am so excited, even though I know he is going to do little more than sleep and visit with friends. It will be wonderful to have my baby under my roof again even if it is for only a week. This break is especially important because his winter break schedule is completely unknown at this point in time. We know Iowa State is going to a bowl game. We know the marching band will be with the football team. We do not know what bowl game yet, and therefore have no idea whether Connor will be home or not for Christmas. So, we plan to make the most of his week here.

What makes this a Fabulous Friday for you?
Yayyyyy for Connor coming home! That’ll be so fun, and I hope y’all have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Thanks, Jenny!
I am so glad he can come for Thanksgiving!! I know some students cannot because of cost and it breaks my heart.
My kid has to work Thanksgiving from 5:30 p.m. to 2 a.m. and then return at 10 a.m. We are going to eat early to accommodate him but we don’t normally eat that early.
Jim went and picked him up on Friday, but he is getting a ride from one of his friends to go back to Ames. I know that he is lucky to be able to come home. The funny thing is I think he would have been okay if he would have had to stay there, but he was so happy to be home as well. I’m just glad to see him and be able to catch up on everything he has been doing.
5:30 isn’t horrible. We usually try to eat around 4ish. That way, we can eat a big breakfast and not have to worry about lunch. Plus, if we overeat the main meal, there is time to digest everything and make room for pie later in the evening. 😉
Yay!! So glad he’s coming home!
Me too!
Yay!! Enjoy your time with him!
Thanks, Brandie!
