thanksgiving

man, this last week ran away from me.  we had a great thanksgiving and were so happy to have trae home  with us for a whole week. the best thing about both trae and i being from the same place is that we get to hit up both families parties for the holidays if we want.  the worst part about having both of us from the same town is when we decide to hit up two large thanksgiving feasts on the same day and indulge at both of them. our bellies still haven't forgiven us for that one.  friday, jane and i went black friday shopping and got a few good finds.  mostly i like to go and be with my sisters, mom, aunts and grandma.  we have so much fun and forget all about the fact that we woke up at 3 am.... until about noon and we hit the wall.

quick story: we came home from getting family pics taken thursday morning and ave was mad at me for some reason so she went into my room and shut the door.  she told matt not to tell me that she was in my room, so i figured i'd let her cool off for a minute and i'd get some things done before we went to lunch. about  45 minutes later i went in to get her and the reason she didn't want me to know she was in there was because she had eaten an entire sleeve or two of oreos ... just the frosting in the middle though.  sneaky little lady.  she obviously wasn't hungry when it came time for real food.

thanksgiving dinner #1 was with the Coltrins. only picture i got
