WOMEN VS. MEN

WELL LADIES, AS YOU KNOW BLACK FRIDAY IS SUCH AN AWESOME DAY FOR MANY OF US. I COULDNT SLEEP ON WED. NIGHT BECAUSE I WAS SO EXCITED FOR THE ADS TO COME OUT. AND THEN I REALLY DIDNT GET MUCH TIME TO LOOK AT THEM DUE TO ALL THE PREP AND COOKING THAT I NEEDED TO DO THAT DAY. BUT AT THE END OF THE EVENING I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO ENJOY THE ADDS AND MAKE MY LIST. MYSELF, KYLEE, AND CRYSTAL PLANNED ON MEETING AT JC PENNYS AT 3.45AM. MAN I WAS SO EXCITED I COULDNT SLEEP ...AGAIN...I WAS UP WAY TO EARLY DUE TO THE ANTICIPATION AND THE RUSH I GET WHEN I ACT LIKE A 5 YEAR OLD RUNNNING THROUGH THE STORES.!!! I DO HAVE TO BRAG JUST A LITTLE....IN AND OUT OF JCPENNYS IN 11 MIN., SHOPKO IN 33 MIN., AND TARGET WAS ONLY 17MIN., WALMART WAS PRETTY RELAXED AND THEN WE HEADED OVER TO OLD NAVY. MICHAELS WE JUST LOVE FOR STOCKING STUFFERS AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST WAS KMART. US GIRLS HAD SO MUCH FUN..WE LAUGHED AT ALL THE CRAZY PEOPLE AND GOT CAUGHT UP IN THE SHOPPING CRAZ. I HAVE BEEN LOVING THIS DAY FOR SO MANY YEARS AND I LOOK FORWARD TO DOING IT FOR MANY MORE. THIS PICTURE DOES NOT REALLY SHOW THE DAMAGE THAT I DID THAT MORNING....BUT I GOT SOME REALLY FANTASTIC DEALS....US GIRLS REALLY LOVE TO SHOP!!!!! OKAY KNOW MY HUSBAND ON THE OTHER HAND....HE HAD A DIFFERENT MIND SET. LETS GET THE GUYS TOGETHER AND GO TO THE DUNES!!!! ACT LIKE CAVE MEN , DRINK TILL WE CANT STAND UP, SLEEP OR SHOULD I SAY PASS OUT IN OUR SLEEPING BAGS WHEN THE WEATHER IS MAYBE 30 DEGREES OUTSIDE..... AND THEN RIDE OUR BIKES... SO WHAT I HAVE COME UP WITH IS US WOMEN THINK OF OUR FAMILY AND THE MEN THINK OF THEMSELVES!!!LOL!!! OR MAYBE THIS IS HOW THE MEN DEAL THE STRESS OF US WOMEN SPENDING MONEY....HMMMMMM..

THANKSGIVING DAY

I HOPE EVERYONE HAD A TERRIFIC TURKEY DAY!! WE HAD SUCH A GREAT TIME. MY FAMILY CAME OVER FOR THE HUGE FEAST. WE PLAYED GUITAR HERO AND EVERYONE HAD SO MUCH FUN!! THE SNACKS WERE OH SO YUMMY....I GOT A GOOD LAUGH AT GRANDPA RON...HE CAME OVER AND SAT IN THE RECLINER AND FELL ASLEEP SO FAST AND DIDNT GET UP TILL I SAID THAT THE TURKEY WAS DONE!!MY LITTLE FAMILY HAS HAD A TRADITION THAT WHILE THE TURKEY IS COOKING WE DECORATE GINGERBREAD HOUSES. LEXIE HAD FUN BUT I THINK SHE ATE MOST OF THE CANDY AND THE HOUSE WAS ONLY HALF WAY DECORATED! TAYA NAD MY BROTHER ANDY BROUGHT ONE OVER AND DECORATED THEIRS AS WELL.THE TURKEY TOOK LONGER TO COOK THAN EXPECTED. NOT A PROBLEM, GAVE ALL OF US DRINKERS A LITTLE MORE TIME TO ENJOY OURSELVES.WHEN THE TURKET FINALLY WAS READY, ALMOST 1 HOUR LATER THAN EXPECTED, WE SAID A PRAYER.....AND ATE LIKE A BUNCH OF WILD PILGRAMS.

WE WENT TO TIMBERMINE FOR DINNER WHERE WE HAD MUSHROOMS, SHRIMP COCKTAIL, PRIMERIB, STEAK, AND DRINKS. WE DROVE AROUND AND ENDED UP AT THE JUNCTION BUT WE WERENT FEELING IT. SO WE JUST CAME HOME. JEFF STALLED QUITE A BIT GETTING HOME SO I KNEW HE WAS UP TO SOMETHING. I WASNT EXPECTING THIS THOUGH.
THERE WERE ROSE PETALS ON THE STAIRS. THE STAIRS WERE LINED WITH PINK ROSES AND CANDLES. SAME WITH THE HALLWAY. THE BEDROOM WAS THE SAME BUT THERE WAS STRAWBERRY CHAMPAGNE, HE EVEN WENT AS FAR AS GETTING BLUE( FAVORITE COLOR) GLASSES, CHOCOLATE COVERED STRAWBERRIES( MY TOTAL FAVORITE!) WHIP CREAM, FLAVORED OILS (HMMMM!!), MORE ROSES, BALLOONS, AND A HEART-WARMING CARD! WOW! I WAS TOTALLY BLOWN AWAY. MY HUSBAND IS SO NOT THE ROMANTIC TYPE . I LOVED EVERYTHING AND I APPRECIATE ALL THE HARD WORK AND HIS EFFORT THAT WENT INTO THIS. I LOVE THE DOZEN ROSES I GOT. IT HAS BEEN 8 YEARS SINCE I RECIEVED ROSES LAST. NEEDLESS TO SAY WE HAD A TERRIFIC TIME AND I NEED TO GIVE A BIG SHOUT OUT TO MY FRIEND AND NEIGHBOR SHAUNA AND HER FRIEND MISTY THAT HEPLED PULL OFF THIS WONDERFUL "LOVE" EVENING!!! JEFF AND I HAVE HAD A ROUGH LAST 2 YEARS AND THIS JUST SHOWED ME THAT HE TRULY LOVES ME AND I DO LOVE HIM SO MUCH. I CANT IMAGINE SPENDING THE REST OF MY LIFE WITHOUT HIM.
