Seems like November came and went for us in a hurry. It seems as if we were sick for most of the month with a few days that we were feeling okay. Thanksgiving was wonderful. We were able to go to my Mom and Dad's house to celebrate with Jenni and Ted and their family and Julie and Brad with their kids as well. Grandma and Connie were there as well. I forgot my camera that day so I don't have pictures of the day. Then, for Black Friday I woke up bright and early for my yearly trek to JoAnn's. I was 5th in line and stood in the cold for an hour. I was so glad when Mom got done at Walmart early so that she could join me for the craziness. It was a real miracle because we were first in the cutting line and only had to wait in the regular line for 30 minutes or so. I think that was the fastest we've ever been in and out on Black Friday. I did go back later that day and had to wait for a couple of hours. Good thing I was with a friend so it didn't seem as long. I really can't believe that it is already December. I am so excited for Christmas this year. Tyler is really into this year and keeps asking about different things. I have a toy nativity set that seems to be his favorite toy to play with since we decorated. I also have 3 regular nativity's set up and he keeps getting the baby Jesus out of them and he kisses them. It's so cute and touching to see. Kids make Christmas time so much more fun and so much more special.
