Thanksgiving


"Thanksgiving, man. Not a good day to be my pants". ~Kevin James

Ahh King of Queens, love that show!
Well our Thanksgiving was spent over in Wenatchee at the Cabin. It has been that way for the past 5 years or so. Sometimes it snows over there during Thanksgiving and everyone always enjoys that, although this year it didnt snow. It was cold enough though and it tried to snow the day after Thanksgiving but just a few flakes fell. My sister Ashley and I drove over on Thanksgiving morning and the rest of the family was already there. My dad and Uncle Dave cooked the meal this year, they are pretty funny together so thats always some entertainment. All the girls spent the day searching the ads for all the hot deals for our annual tradition of Black Friday shopping. We all make lists with what were going to get at each place and the list goes in order of what time each store starts. I started at Shopko because they had the best deals on the toys which is my favorite thing to buy.
We had our Thanksgiving dinner at about 7:00, we laughed and my Dad and Uncle dave shared memories from when they were little. After dinner we looked at the ads some more and eventually had some pumpkin pie. I finally found my way to bed around 11!
Friday morning we all woke up at 3:30 to get ready to go shopping!! I was so tired at first but once I reminded myself I was going shopping, I woke right up. Anyone that knows me knows that I am a shopper! My brother Michael and sister Ashley drove with me to town and I made them listen to Christmas music from my Ipod, they werent too impressed at 4 am :)
We went to Shopko, Target, Starbucks, Old Navy, Famous Footwear, Macys, Hallmark, a scrapbook store, Bath&bodyworks, Costco, Red Robin, and our last stop was Walmart. That was at about 4:00 pm! We were there for awhile and then my sister and brother were both ready to fall asleep so we headed back to the cabin. After over 12 hours of shopping, my car was stuffed full and we were all super tired.
