The Serpa family had so much to be thankful for this year! We are blessed to have a healthy and beautiful daughter, looking forward to our family of three expanding to four in May and we are surrounded by amazing friends and family.
On Thanksgiving, we were up north with my family and celebrated the day at my aunt and uncles house. It was a quiet Thanksgiving day because we were missing several family members. (We would be meeting the rest of the family on Friday in Carmel for a birthday celebration.) My uncle cooked a DELICIOUS ham and we had all the other traditional Thanksgiving goodies to go along with the meal. After dinner, Giada ate my aunt uncle out of house and home as she demolished the leftovers. Around bedtime, we headed home and called it an early night.... Or I did, Anthony and my dad had to finish the night off by enjoying some time in the hot tub.
Friday afternoon, we headed to Carmel for the weekend. My mom booked us a house through VRBO. (The best way to go.) We had a three bedroom, two bath with a backyard to call home for the weekend. Shortly after arriving, we drove over to visit with the rest of the family who spent Thanksgiving in Carmel. That night we ate leftovers for dinner and enjoyed some adult time playing games.
Saturday, Giada woke the house up at 7 AM sharp, which was early for half the group who arrived around midnight the night before. As we lounged around in our PJs for a bit, the boys decided to venture outside for some games of Corn Hole. Once Giada went down for her second nap, the ladies were off to downtown for a little shopping and lunch. That evening, we met back up with the rest of the family to celebrate my aunts 70th birthday. Having all the cousins together was so much fun!
Sunday quickly arrived and we were headed back home.
