Thanksgiving .... Family and Fun

This is my beautiful niece, Taylor, and I on Thanksgiving day. About 5 minutes after this picture was taken, it started snowing outside. It wasn't cold enough for the snow to stick but it was wet enough for my hair to completely frizz, negating the hour of straightening that I had done earlier in the day. Awesome!

Thanksgiving was good this year. My family had waaaaaaaay too much food and I took home a ton of leftovers. So good!

Friday was our annual family shopping spree. We met at my aunt's house at 3:15 a.m. to hit Kohl's when it opened at 4 a.m. It was pure craziness! After Kohl's was Wal-Mart at 5 a.m. and Target at 6 a.m. Everybody got the bargains that they wanted, partly because the teenagers in my family are the "runners" and dash back and forth faster than us old folks can. The rest of us had specific areas to cover. It's a science in my family! I totally scored with a DVD Camcorder for under $200, a digital frame for under $50, and a 37 inch LCD HDTV for $500. I'm not sure why I bought that because the last thing I need is another television. I think it will be going back to the store. I also got my 450 threadcount sheets for under $30 and, oh yeah, I only have 3 Christmas presents left to buy. Woo hoo!

I hope you all had a fantastic holiday and long weekend with your family.

Happy Sunday!
