Our Thanksgiving!

So Thanksgiving was a wonderful Holiday and an even better break! We headed up early Wednesday morning (4 AM) and on the road to Colorado to Brett's parents house. Our heater stopped working about 45 mins into our trip. Not fun. It was Freezing in the dark morning without the sun. We got there around 1:00 and immediately felt the holidays beginning. It was so good to see Brett's mom and dad and his Grandparents. Adalie went to bed that night with a cough and a cold that would last almost the whole trip. Poor thing.

Thanksgiving Day was filled with good food and fun company. I felt bad not helping much in the kitchen. There really wasn't much Brett's mom let me do but keep her company. My green bean casserole took about two seconds to make and my pie didn't turn out quite as good as I hoped it would, even though everyone said it did. Haha Family.

Friday we thought about waking up early to catch the sales, but Brett got his GPS he wanted online in the early morning wee hours so we really didn't have too much of a reason to go into the stores. We did go at about eight though to Wal-Mart to get some more milk and looked around while we were there and I was actually very surprised at all the stuff still there!! We got Adalie a scooter bike for Christmas originally $89.99 for $39.00!! I couldn't believe it!! It's like a powerwheel - I am still shocked! I even picked up a few $5 barbies and barbie things for next years Christmas and we got our discounted Christmas tree. Needless to say I was pleased...I really do love good bargains and I feel good about. I am so excited for Brett and Aalie's faces Christmas Morning!!!

Saturday we headed out again with Brett's mom to do some more bargain shopping on Christmas stuff with her and she got Adalie her fist little pair of High heels. They are so cute and she has been wearing them around the house. She keeps saying she is a Pretty Princess and sings the Bibbadi Bobbidi Boo Song from Cinderella because they look like glass slippers. We also got our outfits for Family Pictures which I am nervous about taking since I am Big and pregnant.

It was such a fun and relaxing vacation. We left on Sunday morning and it was Brett's turn to have Adalie's cold, but feels a lot better today. I am glad. He has a busy week ahead of him and I will miss having a husband this week. I don't have the Camera on me now so I will have to upload all of our pictures tomorrow or later tonight when Brett gets home so stay tuned!!
