Thanksgiving recap.

We laughed.


We ate.


We acted silly.


We loved.


Some of us wondered why others of us were taking pictures.


While some of us embraced the camera’s presence.


But we all left the table with very full bellies.


And very grateful hearts.

Happy Thanksgiving!

P.S. I’m heading out later to hit some Black Friday sales. Say a prayer I don’t get trampled in WalM@rt trying to score a Nintendo DS.

    I was totally thinking about braving that place for the DS as well! I wish you all the best there. I think I have decided against it, although the price can't be beat!

    Surely looks like you had a great thanksgiving! Ours was full as well, in many, many ways!

    I hosted a bunch of family and I didn't get one picture!

    I am heading out at 3 am to shop…is that insane or what?

    Good luck on the DS~

    Cute photos! Happy Thanksgiving! Hope you find some great deals. We were supposed to head out really early for the Black Friday deals, but Hillary, who came up with the idea, is still in bed at 10am. Must be rough to be 19 ๐Ÿ™‚

    Full bellies, grateful hearts, and probably very little leftovers, huh?

    We opted to embrace our spending freeze and stay warm this year on the day after Thanksgiving ๐Ÿ™‚ I say "we", but I really mean my husband!
