Thanksgiving Weekend!!

Wow we had such a great weekend spending time with family and friends. We had Thanksgiving dinner at my sister Misty's. It was such a great time and Jason's family was all their too. They are great people and fun to be around. The kids had a great time playing football and basketball outside. Then on Friday Misty and I hit the sales at 4:45 a.m. I am sure it was not as early as some of you crazy bats went but there was not to many things that I couldn't live without this year and we got what we went for and that is all that matters!! Then we my aunt Nancy came up and all the gals went to the Novemberfest. We have been going to that for my whole entire life since my aunt Nina runs the show there. Then we all went out to eat at Fredrico's then back home to our house for some good old games of "NUTS" and Dominoes. Our family has not played the card game "NUTS" for a long time but is a family tradition card game. On Saturday Texie did her first dance performance for this year she did such an amazing job and is such a great dancer. We love going to watch her and hopes she keeps it up!! There is a wrap up of the weekend. I love this time of year and look forward to many more card and domino games and spending time with family and friends!!

Shopping at 4:45? Wow, good for you! I made it out at about 7:30 and that was early! Hope you got lots of good buys! Yeah, I was pretty bored on Friday and decided to wrap all my gifts since I didn't have much to do. It went by pretty fast and luckily I'm practically done!

Texi did a great job on Saturday!
