The Holiday

So this holiday week has been a pretty good one. I started it with a trip to the movies with my mom on Tuesday afternoon - we went to see Twilight. I have to agree with the majority and say that it wasn't that great... but there were definitly things about it that I thought were good, its just that after reading the book, there was a degree of disappointment. I am willing to believe that the next one will be better :)
On Wednesday Alex and I dropped Avery off with my parents and went to see Four Christmases (for free) with Jared and Katy. We really liked it a lot - as a funny holiday movie, I would recommend it. Afterwards we went to Inoko and enjoyed some awesome Japanese food - unfortunately it was bad that Thanksgiving was the next day because they give you SO much food. I was still full the next morning. But it was nice to have a little break and hang out with our friends. Thanks Jared and Katy!
Ahhh.... Thanksgiving Thursday. At 11:30 we went and ate Thanksgiving lunch at Alex's parents house. Honey baked ham instead of turkey - SOOOOOOO delicious. BUT, I had to refrain from eating too much because at 4:30 we went and ate Thanksgiving dinner at my parents house. Traditional. But ALSO, very delicious. Thanks to the Perschka's and the Austin's for making such yummy food!
Black Friday Alex and I took turns going out into the MASSIVE crowds. Alex bought himself a nice little christmas gift and I came home empty handed. It's probably better I didn't spend the money anyway! We got a few things on really good deals for some gifts and that was it. Friday night was leftovers at my parents house. Most def. a bribe to see the baby! :)
Saturday was Georgia/Georgia Tech and what a DISAPPOINTING game to walk a mile in the cold rain for. My only game of the season was such a bummer, and it'll be even worse if Stafford and Moreno leave. After the game I went babysitting and Alex took Avery to spend the night at my parents while he worked on the TON of school work that he had piled up. It was sad once I got home and my little munchkin wasn't there.... we almost went and got him. It was nice to get a good full nights sleep though.
Today we missed Avery so, although we felt terrible, we left church early to go and get him. And it has been a really great holiday. I can't wait for Christmas.
