Thanksgiving

I apologize for the delay in updates. Our laptop stopped working a few weeks ago and I always space to use the desk top computer. So it will be a blog update overload this evening. So let's go back two weeks to Thanksgiving...
Thanksgiving, my favorite holiday. Matt had to work the night before so he was sleeping up until it was time to get ready for dinner. The kids and I watched the Macy's parade and Livi informed me when she's older she would like to be a Rockette dancer. She was fascinated watching them dance. After the parade we made a quick trip down to Bonney Lake to pick up a pie I had ordered. Then we just relaxed until it was time to leave. We went to my parents and there was twelve of us there for dinner. My dad has smoked our turkey the past couple years and it was yummy! Everything was amazing, I was so full I couldn't even eat pie. Matt didn't have to work until one in the morning so we went home and I put the kids to bed and he took a little nap. While they were sleeping my mom, sister, her boyfriend, a family friend and myself all went to see Breaking Dawn (Again I know lol)
Usually I'm out early the next morning participating in Black Friday shopping. I did go out with my mom and the kids, but not until around 10am. I still was able to get everything I wanted: PJ's for the kids, some DVD's, a couple pairs of boots, a new blow dryer etc.. It's so much nicer not having to deal with all the crowds in the early morning.
