Thanksgiving sharing time

Thanksgiving has come and gone and I'm feeling the pressures of Christmas.

We had such a nice dinner with Marla and Stella with us this year. The kids played like they see each other everyday. Mila was in heaven having a girl to play with and Stella was crackin' us up chasing Brandon with kisses. He loved the attention you could tell.

Damian loved showing off his Van Halen strumming skills and was in awe that Marla knew the songs too. He amazed us as usual with his memory skills at dinner telling us what year everyone at the table was born and various musicians. Oh also when they died :) Then he started with the states and capitals. Such entertainment!

The turkey was yummy again thanks to the beautiful cook!! Oh that would be me. Hated I couldn't sit with a huge plate in front of me and feeling stuffed but I did devour Marla's roasted veggies. Should have ate more turkey instead.

I even had a sliver of my famous Crunchy Caramel Apple pie. Mmmmm. Damn I'm a good cook!

I was grabbing some decorations in the garage and heard Max grunting and groanin'. Guess he thought he should get a workout in before he got stuffed at dinner.

Made a quick fabric banner for the mantle. It was so fast to make and I know I will be making one for every holiday now.

All I asked for was one picture. No funky faces. Every single one he was doing something. This is the only presentable one.

Then Black Friday came and we hit the town. Too exhausted still to talk about it. I'll just say it was fun as usual, adrenaline pumpin' for 5 seconds and a hoot watching my poor hubby with blood shot eyes drive all over Sacramento. We came home and slept for awhile and headed back out together, dropped him off and I went back out to MY stores. No distractions.

I don't wanna go shopping for a long long time now.

Mila feeling refreshed on Black Friday.

I'm going back to sleep now.
