Black Friday Slumber Party

Thanksgiving night we got home about 9:30. We had an awesome dinner at Gary and Carol's house. I had the best noodles ever made!!! The food was amazing. It's always fun to get together. The guys went hunting in the a.m. and the evening. Kirk didn't even see a deer. After rummaging through all the sales ads we realized that Michael's was open 6-9pm on Thanksgiving Day. All of the wives headed over to do some early sale shopping. We got back to our house around 9:30. Heather and Kate met me at our house for a mommy slumber party. We watched the movie Hancock and plotted our plan of attack for our black Friday shopping. We laughed and hung out until 2:30 a.m. Then we slept for 45 min and headed to Lafayette for shopping. We did excellent!! Kate and I did Black Friday a couple of years ago and we had a fabulous system. Her mom wanted to come w/ us this year but Kate said she couldn't keep up and didn't know our system. Heather shopped w/ Kate a couple of weeks ago and was able to prove herself worthy of shopping w/us. We shopped until about 1:30pm. It was a great time. I am soo blessed to have such wonderful friends. I love good food, great friends, and super deals. What a Great Day!!

Pretty Blog

I hope I saved this background correctly I'm trying to keep up w/my SIL and the Stimpsons. I am about as disfunctional as it comes when your talking computers. I'm excited about our big Christmas craft night for Enrichment tonight. I'll have to take care of my completed projects and post them.

5th grade Basketball

5th grade Basketball is up and going now. Briley really likes playing. She usually plays guard and on occasion plays forward. It's been a lot of fun to go and watch her team play. Macie likes to watch the Cardinal dance around. Last night though Macie scared me to death at the game. At the end of the game she choked on a Spree candy and stopped breathing. I gave her a push on her tummy, she made a little gasp and then threw everything she had eaten up all over the bleachers. Thankfully a friend ran and grabbed a bunch of paper towels. We were sitting on the top row of the bleachers so the fans got a post game show. She did it right at the end of the game. I'm so glad she's ok. Things like this always remind me of how fragile life is and how I need to make the most of my family time.

Picture Tag

You open your fourth folder's fourth picture and then tell about the picture.

This is a picture of Hadyn holding Cory and Christina's baby Lily when she was just a baby. She's growing fast and now rolls everywhere and I heard she's sitting up some too. Hadyn loves babies and Macie loves Lily. Ever since Lily was born Macie has names every stuffed animal she owns Lily. Tag your it if you want to participate.

Happy Halloween

Briley was the girl from the movie The Ring, Hadyn was a gypsie, and Macie was Cinderella. I think that the costumes Kirk and I made are pretty self- explanatory.

High School Musical 3

Our girls are huge high-school musical fans. We bought our tickets a couple of days in advance to ensure our seats for opening night. The girls wore their shirts and sprayed their hair red in honor of the big event. I thought it was very well done. The sound track should be great! Thanks Kate and Elizabeth for helping us celebrate this exciting event!!
