November

So I was just looking through my Facebook pictures as well as the pictures on my camera, and I found ONE picture from November. I'm sure there must be more somewhere, but I can't find them. This makes trying to blog about November all the more difficult. I will try my best but it's going to be incredibly unsatisfactory, just  be forewarned.
Josh's birthday was November 4th and mine was November 22nd. As per tradition, Josh's parents took us out to the restaurant of our choice to celebrate our birthdays. For Josh's birthday we went to Benihana's. They have a birthday club that you can sign up for and when you do, you get a free meal (up to $30) during the month of your birthday. Both of us sign up for that, and because our birthdays are in the same month, our meals were both free! It was quite delicious and we had a great time. For my birthday we went to a place we really like called Caffe Molise. It's an Italian place, and it's delicious!
My birthday was also on Thanksgiving this year, which was kind of fun. We spent Thanksgiving with Josh's family, and went to the Grand America again. Always a good choice :) Thanksgiving kind of trumps birthday, so we didn't actually do much on my birthday. My mother- and sister-in-law and I did go see the last Twilight (Breaking Dawn 2) movie on Thanksgiving afternoon, which was fun.
In between my birthday and Josh's birthday, we did a combined family dinner at his parents' house to celebrate our birthdays. It's always really nice to have dinner at his parents' and be able to spend time with his family.
All-in-all, we didn't do TOO much for our birthdays this year because we went on a cruise during the second week of December so we were saving our money for that. The cruise was in celebration of Josh's 30th birthday so our birthdays were pretty low-key.
The one picture I could find for the month of November. Sofia enjoyed herself very much at the dessert table on Thanksgiving Day ;)
