Yesterday was a wonderful day. Our family had a wonderful time together and my brother in law asked his girlfriend to become his wife. It was a wonderful day. By next Thanksgiving, I will have a new sister and she is a sweetie. They also will be living over here in the boonies (lol) near us. I can't wait til the nieces and nephews start coming. We also met his future in laws and they are wonderful people. It was just a great day of fun. We found out that SOME of us ARE indeed smarter than 5th graders. We found out that our new family members Wii often and well. Some of us were crushed in bowling. The newly affianced lady found that her "Rock" helped her get 6 strikes in a row but wasn't willing to share to improve our games. One of us "old school" in laws found that he had mad skills at virtual baseball and was quite obnoxious about it (LOL). The kids had a blast playing together and we had enough food to feed a small army. We thank our God for the bounty and his blessings.
Today was "Black Friday". It started early when our girl woke up with dreams of vampires getting her at 3:30 am. This worked out well for my husband since he was leaving at 4ish to go get some bargains for me. I worked "dispatch" this year at the squad room while he made the raids on Wal-mart, Sams, Target, Macy's, etc. He was. however, unwilling to attempt ToysRus
without serious backup. We got several gifts taken care of though and he was back home by 8:30 am. We had a lazy day here after that.
Tomorrow will be the big day of decorating in our household. What joy, what stress! But when its all said and done, Christmas will officially be here for our family.
Well that's about all the updating I have energy for today.
Have a blessed day.
