Thanksgiving!

We spent Thanksgiving this year with Nathan’s family in Washington and had a great time… the majority of the time. We had a fabulous Thanksgiving dinner. Nathan’s Grandma cooked most of the food and us girls contributed by making homemade rolls and pies. Mmmm… it was delish.Jayden slept through his first Thanksgiving dinner but enjoyed his dinner afterwards… Nathan made sure to feed him a turkey and veggie flavored baby food because everyone should have turkey on Thanksgiving! What a good Daddy!Of course we had to participate in Black Friday but the only big store in Nathan’s home town is Wal-mart so we didn’t have a whole lot of options. Nathan waited in line for two hours and was able to get an Xbox and Kinect. I was in charge of getting the games for the Kinect. They had games that were regularly $49 for only $15! I Iooove me a good deal! I was right up in the front and I got my hands on a copy of Dance Central and turned to leave and this guy… who had not even been waiting in line… ran up and tried to pull it out of my hands. I held on tighter (I wasn’t going to give up that easily!) but he pulled really hard and yanked me to the ground and made off with my game! I can’t believe some people! I saw him later and I said “You STOLE my game!” but he just pretended to be deaf… I was SO mad! It ruined the whole Black Friday experience for me… but I’m pretty sure it won’t stop me from going again next year… I will just be more cautious! The next day the flu started running rampant through the house and one by one we became infected… even those brave enough to visit were unlucky enough to catch it! The kids broke in the new furniture… leather was a good choice! Despite the plague we managed to have a good time spending quality time with family!
