Thanksgiving Holiday

I was so lucky, my 3 day weekend happened to fall on Thanksgiving weekend. I had Thursday, Friday and Saturday off!

Thursday at noon we went to my dads house for Turkey dinner, and at 3 we went to Cam's cousin, Brandi's house for more food. We were SO stuffed! After Brandi's we came home, popped Elf in the DVD player, looked thru all the ads, and planned our stops!

Toys R Us- we went there right at midnight! There was a really long line, going in the east doors. Well, we stood there for a second, when Cam saw that they opened up the Babys R Us doors, so we jetted in there quickly! We were the first to check out on Babys R Us side, and we were outta there! -luckily BEFORE the fights broke out! (we got a skateboard ramp for Cams nephew)

The plan was, after Toys R Us, to go home, sleep for a couple, and go back out. Yea...that didn't happen. Denna (Cams mom) called me, said they were at Walmart, and we should come there. So we decided to stop there, see where they had everything we wanted, so that we knew where to go when we came back later. Well, long story short, we ended up staying at Walmart until 5am! (Got a sony camera, a TomTom for my brother-in-law, 2 big collage pic frames, some Christmas decorations, a folding table/chairs, a Cricut cartridge, and some jammies for Cam's nephew, Deuce)

Next, Home Depot. We were there when the doors opened at 6, and wanted to get an air compressor, shop vac, and Christmas lights. Cam and I both took off in different directions, and were going to grab any of the stuff on our list that we could find. Well, I found the air compressor right away, and drug it behind me to go find the shop vacs. I found the shop vacs (that everyone and their mom were going crazy for!) so I pulled one down, and had to push the compressor/shop vac towards the front of the store b/c they were too heavy to carry! I kept trying to call Cams phone so that he could come help me, but of course, no answer. Well, I got to the front of the store, and I see Cam about half way down the main isle, and he looks so disappointed, and he can't see that I have stuff in front of me on the ground, and he said "I couldn't find anything, they are all gone!" Needless to say, he was pumped when he saw that I had the 2 main things we wanted! Oh yea..we also go the Christmas lights...but those weren't that big of a deal.

We were home sleeping around 8, slept for about 3 hours, then we got up and went to the Christmas tree farm!! It was so fun! We also ran some other errands (grabbed some lunch, had to go get stockings and bows, etc) we were soo tired that we didn't even decorate until Saturday morning.

Saturday morning we decorated the tree and the house, and cooked stuff for our next Thanksgiving stop...Lauras (my sister) Cam didn't end up getting to go to Lauras...he was feeling under the weather, so he stayed home, while mom and I went to KC.

All and all, it was an awesome weekend!!
