Greetings from my hometown of Charlotte, North Carolina! Don't worry Wisconsin, I'll be back Sunday.
As I mentioned in my
first ever post, Aimee is my BFF. I've known her since the 4th grade, and now we have another cool 4th grader around: her daughter, Isis. I come home for Thanksgiving every year, and my "niece" and I have a tradition of going to a matinee in a nearly empty theater, watching the latest Disney epic, and putting our feet up on the seats. This year, it was
Frozen, and I recommend it! The music was great, and the Snow Queen is voiced by the fabulous
Idina Menzel.
This year, I'm fortunate enough to be home for
Thanksgivukkah:
 |
| My family collects menorahs and dreidels. |
Oh, and my parents got a new dog:
 |
| Hi, I'm Max the Miniature Poodle! |
And, for the first time in years, Aimee and I actually got to exchange presents on the first day of Hanukkah. In true Wisconsin fashion, I decided to get all Bucky-d out with gift giving.
 |
| This pair is making their Aviva in Dairyland debut. Meet Aimee & Isis! |
Aimee got a Wisconsin tank to wear for running, while Isis (a tie-dye enthusiast) got a "Grateful Red" UW volleyball shirt + cow socks. If you're a kid with a Wisconsin auntie, cow socks are a MUST.
