I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving! This is the first year since we've had the boys that we had to "bounce" to both sides of the family in the same day. It was A LOT of eating for one day, but both places were delicious! The craziest thing that happened was that Roger and I braved the crowd at Toys R Us at midnight! I am still in shock that he agreed to come with me then! We ALWAYS do the shopping for the boys together (for most of it anyway), but he's not a "real" shopper and would prefer not to be in crowds and lines. I ALWAYS go the day after Thanksgiving and he stays home with the boys. The other milestone about this was that since we were going out all night to shop...BOTH the boys had to spend the night out. So, Logan had his first sleepover last night (though I keep telling myself it doesn't REALLY count because I wasn't home to really notice)...ha ha! We decided that while we were out we might as well do as much as we could; so, we went to Walmart and Gamestop too. We finally got home and to sleep somewhere about 7:30 this morning (YAWN!).
The other amazing thing that happened today was that our Christmas Tree went up! We always put it up the day after Thanksgiving, but after the "festivities" of the crowds, lines, and very little sleep I wasn't sure if we'd be up to it. The boys remembered though. As I drove home with them, Logan asked me, "When we get home can we go in the attic and get the tree to put up?" I told him we'd have to ask his Daddy when we got home. That's when he informed me, "We don't have to ask him. You can just tell him and he'll listen to you cause you said." So, we got home and did the tree. We are holding off on the outside stuff until tomorrow though!
It wouldn't be "normal" if I didn't have to take 30 pictures to get one good one! Here are my little helpers being silly! :) They were great helpers with the tree. Austin even read Fred's book (Elf on the Shelf book) to Logan while we strung on the lights. Wonder where Fred will be hiding tomorrow???
