Thanksgiving and Black Friday!

We had a fantastic weekend. We first tried to cram as many people as possible into our house for Thanksgiving dinner. Two Turkeys, one ham, and all the fixings later-We realized we had a really great time.


Amber, Elessa, Miles and I rose at 3:30 in the morning to start the shopping extravaganza. We started at Kohls then to Walmart and we finished at RC Willey, where the Homeless Athole jumped to the the front of the line, pretending to be homeless, so she could take out the people who had been waiting for 10 hours, for an ipod, only to find that those of us who stayed at the back of the line, also got one too, but whatever! Amber didn't start having a good time, until we started threatening to beat people up, and scorning women for putting away their umbrellas, when they could be used as such good weapons. My stomach hurts from laughing. (really it still hurts)

We finished the weekend with a game of poker with me, art, mike, elessa, amber, kyle, miles, greg and stacy. Good times!

Art and I also put up our Christmas Tree and I just want to remind you all the Charlie Brown had a very good Christmas-in fact it is a classic, so that is the look we are going with here!

Meriann, it looks like you guys had a great weekend! So glad to hear that. You are crazy for getting up so dang early in the morning--I hope you found some stellar deals for your dedication. Ryan and I slept in and in fact, did not leave the house on Black Friday. But we did have a movie marathon, so it was a good day here. Take care!...and thank you, so much, for your prayers and thoughts.
