Thankgiving Weekend Highlights

*Thanksgiving dinner with 80 family members.

*Yummy food, kids every where, several games of dodge ball, and too full for pie.

*Singing Happy Birthday to my Grandma...Happy 89th, Gram!

*Planning my early morning shopping spree.

*Hitting Walmart at 4AM with Brooke & Kecia.

*Getting all that I wanted...and then some!

*Putting up the Christmas Lights, Christmas Tree and all the trimmings!

*Listening to Christmas music.

*Lunch at Cafe Rio.

*Getting a 2 HOUR nap (Thanks, Tucker).

*More shopping on Saturday.

*Helping with a MAJOR organization project at my parents' house.

*A busy Sunday...taught Halle's primary class and then did sharing time & singing time in another ward. 5 Hours of church is exhausting.

*Celebrating my Grandpa's 80th Birthday with many family and friends.

I think that about sums it all up. I didn't get my camera out even once but we had a great Thanksgiving and I'm glad we could reflect on all that we have to be thankful for. I loved spending time with my family and gearing up for Christmas. Only 25 days! I can't wait!

How I wish I would've had the energy to shop with you - 4:00am was just too early! Sounds like such a fun weekend. Cute new background!

I thought I already left a comment, how weird!! I missed having Thanksgiving dinner with the whole crazy fam, but loved shopping at the crack of dawn with you. I get delirious just thinking about it.

It sounds like a great Thanksgiving. I love the Black Friday deals. I talked Ben into going out with me for a little bit.
