Notable Notes on Thanksgiving

Thankful to see my hubby home safe and sound. Hugged him and did't want to let him go!

Mom, hubby and Sissy had Thanksgiving duty. I had kid duty.

Enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving with mom and sister and fam. First time we have all been together for Thanksgiving in a number of years.

The kids swam on Thanksgiving Day! Have to love the holidays in the South.

Did our first Black Friday Shopping. Ever. Well, hubby did anyway. Saw an ad in the local paper on Wednesday for Yankee Candles for $4.99. Hubby was up at 7:15AM to go get us all some. Store didn't open until 8. He came back with coffee though. Went again at 7:45 and could only buy 3. Picked up Sissy and LM and went and bought 4 more. Success!

On the way home from Grandma's Boop played with the turkey fryer oil funnels for almost the entire 5 hour trip! I love boys!

Found out that lollipops and the iPod are a great way to keep EG quiet on the long car ride. It was hilarious to hear EG "singing" in her carseat. I turned down the Christmas music just to hear her.

On the way to my mom's we all wished every toll booth person a Happy Thanksgiving. On the way back all 7 of us told all the toll booth people to Have a Merry Christmas. Many were perplexed. Some just stared and one or two laughed. Just trying to share the love. ;)

All and all a pretty good holiday week . . .
