Eating...

Being tortured by aunts and uncles... nice to know some things never change, since I have vivid memories of being tortured by Jane & David when I was that age... memories of being teased mercilessly, held upside down over a toilet, and scared half to death with stories... and loving every minute of it (well, except maybe the toilet incident)! :)
And, since there was a new baby and lots of dogs (Mom & Dad brought Joy and Bob, in addition to Grandpa's dog, Jack), everyone also....
Held the baby...
and played with the dogs...
And held the baby...
And played with the dogs...
And held the... wait a minute...
Anyway, it was a great weekend of hanging out with family and just relaxing. We ate ourselves sick on Thursday and visited with the whole family. Everyone loved Elena, of course! :) Friday morning some of us hit the Black Friday sales. Ellen and Ruth and I left at 5:30 to hit the sales... We dropped Ellen off at Joann's Fabrics (that place is the worst EVER on Black Friday), then Ruth and I headed to the mall across the street. We shopped 'til we dropped, then headed back to Grandma and Grandpa's. That afternoon we went to visit Grandma and Grandpa Hook. It was really neat to have five generations together. And it was fun to visit with Grandma and Grandpa, it had been too long since we'd seen them. Saturday we hung out all morning then headed home around noon so we could be back in time for the MU/KU game (WHICH WAS AWESOME). All in all, it was a great, relaxing Thanksgiving weekend spent hanging out with family, eating lots of great food, and watching a SPECTACULAR football game (MU won, in case you haven't figured that out yet). And now it is OFFICIALLY THE CHRISTMAS SEASON!

I love that Joy is all a blur because she is THRASHING!! It was a great weekend and the shopping was very successful! You've got to love hanging with the family, even if Josh didn't feel Grandpa up this year! :)
What`s up with that Josh??? Grandpa was really disappointed this year......
I'm glad you guys were able to hit the Black Friday sales. I actually (sadly) have never shopped on that Friday....always seem to be working, or this year, out of town.
Was bummed not to be with you guys this year for Thanksgiving. I would have gladly joined in on the baby holding, doggie playing, family visiting, sleeping and eating! What's not to love?
