A Great Holiday

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! This year we went to North Carolina for Thanksgiving. We piled ourselves, the kids, my brother, and 2 of our dogs in our vehicle and headed down Tuesday evening after work. Here's a quick recap of our holiday:

Since we got to my sister's house around 1:30 AM, we did some napping later that day to catch up on our sleep.


I managed to break out my camera to get a few shots. I didn't get nearly as many pictures as I'd like, but I tend to forget I even have my camera when we're visiting family. Too much excitement!


Thursday we headed over to Mom and Mark's house. The men chatted.


The women played Mall Madness. Have you ever played it? If not, I'd recommend buying it. It's an old game, from around 1989, but it's a blast to play even if you're not a mall-hopping teeny bopper. :-)


We ate. Lots. The food was delicious as always.


Friday morning we went Black Friday shopping and got good deals on several things we wanted, then we went back to Mom and Mark's for more visiting.

Unfortunately we had to come home on Saturday. I would have kidnapped my sister, but we were so crammed in the car as it was she would have had to sit on the roof, and I didn't think that was safe.

We had a great trip. The kids all had a great time playing and totally wore themselves out. Kylee, poor thing, got a fever on Thursday afternoon and kept it all weekend. The kids slept this morning until 9 AM!!! That's a first.

After looking at pictures of myself, I've decided it's probably time to cut my hair. It's looking a little blah.

And can you believe it's almost December already? Now it's really time to kick it in high gear and get ready for Christmas!
