I am thankful to spend this week with Evey and Eric despite the temperatures!

We had a great time at WDW with Evey and Eric even though I had to wear a sweater AND a hoodie sweatshirt.  It was cold at night!

The D23 event was interesting as always.  Evey and Eric went to the pool on Saturday in the early afternoon when it was still in the upper 70s.  Then they enjoyed Disney Springs where we joined them for dinner and shopping. Sunday they went to Animal Kingdom all day while we went to D23 and then Magic Kingdom.  It was only 49 degrees out as we waited for the fireworks.  BRR! We spent the whole day together at Epcot on Monday before checking out of Old Key West and coming home yesterday.  Today we are going to Gaylord Palms for viewing their decorations and a short Cirque du Soleil style holiday show before seeing the new Disney film Moana at Disney Springs.  Then it's Thanksgiving.  Wow!

It's also Wednesday.  Although we walked a lot yesterday, I ate way too  much every day and mostly just sat all day at the convention over the weekend.  I weigh 274.8 this morning.  That's up 3.6 pounds for the week.  All that walking cannot compensate for way too many calories.

Today we are eating lunch at Q'doba's, one of Evey's favorite places. Unfortunately for her, there are none where she lives.  Dinner will be at the Bistro for pizza.  Then there's a BIG dinner tomorrow for the holiday Yikes.  Guess I'll get back to healthy eating on Friday.  Oh, wait...the leftovers!

I am very thankful for everything in my life--my husband, kids, family, friends, health, and prosperity enough to allow us to live comfortably in our retirement years.  I wish everyone a happy, healthy, and prosperous Thanksgiving Day and every day thereafter.

Here are some pictures from the last few days.

All day Evey was thinking about this sweatshirt and she finally bought it on the way out of Epcot.  

These two are just so adorable!
