Apparently, when you’re pregnant, leftovers DO NOT last a week. We maybe have enough for tomorrow.
Thanksgiving was great. Good food, good friends, crazy kids. My turkey was the most perfect looking golden brown turkey I have ever made. I didn’t get a picture, but take my word for it. Tender, juicy goodness. Smushy ran around with her friend all night playing and screaming and laughing and screaming. Kids are loud. The house, that was actually pretty clean before, is now destroyed. We’re taking our time with the clean-up today. No rush.
I ate so much food. SO MUCH FOOD. Mashed potatoes, homemade mac and cheese, green bean casserole more more more please can’t get enough yummy feed me!!! And I am so tired today. I definitely overdid it yesterday and this little guy is making me pay. I plan on taking it easy through the weekend and I’m going to need to come up with some alternate Christmas plan because I can’t do this again. Mr. Silly may have to learn to cook or at least take direction well.
For the sake of relaxing, we did not go shopping today. I avoid all retail locations on Black Friday. People get elbowed and smashed and it’s just too crowded and I get claustrophobic and cry. So instead, we casually cleaned and pulled out bins of baby things and Christmas decorations and put up a little 4ft fiber optic tree that Mr. Silly and I have had since we were engaged. Smushy ran around wearing her Santa hat and tried to impale us on a light-up lawn candy cane saying, “Merry Christmas, everyone!” Couldn’t ask for a better day after Thanksgiving.
Tomorrow , we’ll brave whatever crowds are left for Christmas pj’s so I can take a picture for the cards.
Though this one isn’t bad.
Thanksgiving rocks!
That’s such a great picture!
I don’t do Black Friday either. In fact, I try very hard to go no where near a Target after Thanksgiving until after the New Year. I do all my Christmas shopping online. We don’t have any family locally so everything has to be shipping anyway, so might as well.
