Turkey Day Review!

Our Thanksgiving was lovely.  A good time was had by all.  A bit of a smaller crowd than usual at Brad's family Thanksgiving.  The weather was perfect.  Not cold, not warm, simply perfect.  My pecan pie was a huge success.  I actually never got a piece of it.  I had a bite of Brad's slice but that's it. At some point during this past weekend I did give thought to baking another pecan pie just so I could have a piece this time! Perhaps I'll have to bake another one for Christmas we'll surely want more than one dessert on hand when we host Christmas Eve.

What happened to the Cowboys?  Man, was that a disappointing game or what?  We were driving back from the Thanksgiving meal when we heard the score on the radio.  We both looked at each other in disbelief as they reported the halftime score to be 28-3.  We got back in time to watch the 2nd half. 

I have to admit I did horrible on my football picks this week.  We had to have them done earlier than usual and so I rushed quite a bit.  It showed! I even picked the Cardinals to win!  I truly thought they would break out of their slump!  Wrong again!  Better luck this coming week!  The best part of the weekend in the world of sports in my opinion was that my Sun Devils beat the Wildcats.  I was dancing around the living room as I watched that game, singing a little song about how the Sun Devils will now be bound for a better bowl than U of A.  Ha Ha!

So did anyone go Black Friday shopping?  We did.  Brad had to work on Friday.  He normally takes a vacation day for Friday but due to our wedding he's saving his days.  After he got done with work for the day we went out in the evening to do a little shopping.  We were quite successful!  We also went out Saturday to shop by the end of the weekend we were able to mark some people off our combined Christmas list.
