Day after Thanksgiving.

My mother’s stuffing – which I make and is always fantastic – was HORRIBLE. She has like no kitchen skills…or patience. Things were not finely diced…and didn’t cook long enough – it was just….not good. Rob forgot the marshmallows for the yams – which was a bummer for those that ate those nasty things. A *sweet* potato has always been odd to me. Ohhhh – and the pumpkin pie – courtesy of Sara Lee – and nobody doesn’t like Sara Lee….well, I hate to tell you – but we didn’t like Sara Lee. Heavy on the nutmeg – just not fantastic at all. But overall the evening was good – the kids had fun, the turkey and mashed potatoes and green bean casserole were all great and I ate bunches.
Then we came home for our tradition of watching The Polar Express for the first time of the year on Thanksgiving night – and it typically stays on through New Year’s Day.
I saw a few deals that interested me for this morning, but not anything super. Rob went to work for a few hours so I’m having him stop on his way home for a couple things. I’m thinking the way the economy is this year, you can go out later and there will still be good deals left.
Getting my hair done at 10:30 and then off to the BSU game this afternoon. We’re 12-0 and today is the last game – going for a 13-0 undeafeated season. We’ll be on ESPN2 at 4 o’clock my time. We’re usually on TV because of our seats – last time D was on and the time before that, I was on; national television superstars we are!

Sorry you had such a lousy dinner…except what you cooked of course. THe kids look great though.
Enjoy your football game this afternoon.
We are even having black Friday sales here in Canada not to sure why though. Everytime I have been at the mall it has been packed and everyone is carrying lots of parcels.

LOL @ the stuffing being horrible….haha…you don’t cook…so how do you know? J/K…hehe
Hey forgot to tell you that your BSU team made one of the Canadian sports channels…highlight reel last weekend…saw it in Banff….haha!
Our economy is good here in Alberta…it’s busy busy busy all the time…they say things are slowing down in Canada too…except in Alberta…oil rich province.
Brian and I are going xmas shopping tonight!

What a cute pic! Sorry about the things that didn’t turn out great but at least the turkey, potatoes and beans were yummy!
Enjoy the game! 🙂

On television, maybe not national though, we never get BSU games out here in the east. I was going to watch and look for you guys but I checked all our ESPN channels and nope. :S
Hi Dawn, Hi Jen! 🙂

We had those same plates. Target? My haircut is cute, but I’m sure I won’t be able to make it look as good. Hope yours goes well, and BSU kicks some butt! Undefeated is awesome. Enjoy!
