Time is flying!!

What a great long weekend, except that it went too fast (as usual). We kicked off turkey day in Waverly and had some delicious food and a great time with the Turner family. The kids had a blast and got to play with some of their cousins which they always enjoy. Thursday night Shawn and I headed back home while the kids got to spend the night at the farm. Next on the list was Black Friday. After extensive research through the billions of ads and sales, we decided to start our day out at Home Depot around 5:45am. This was for Shawn to get his Christmas present - I had to tell him about it since it was too big for me to sprint through the store and be able to carry. It's a really cool ladder that does all kinds of things. It was a hot item, a great sale, and best of all - we got one! Then it was off to about 10 other places and by 3:30 we were home and had our Christmas shopping DONE! I have never finished my shopping before Christmas Eve and this year I finished in November! We had such a fun day battling the crazy people that go shopping on Black Friday. I will say, though, that I was "a hurtin' unit" on Saturday. I was so exhausted and sore from running around all day Friday that I wasn't sure I would recover. Shawn and I were both in bed before 9 and after a good night's sleep (or at least as good as it can be when you are this prego) we both felt much better. Saturday morning we did our annual PJ Picture with the Settle side. We all got our new Christmas PJ's and did our big family portrait. I don't have any pics yet, but will be sure to post them when we get them from my brother.
Other news - I have to get a cavity filled at 7am tomorrow - what a way to start the day, huh? It's suppose to snow and sleet all day - ick. They better not cancel school!!! That's all I know for now - time to relax and hopefully get a foot rub from Shawn.
Hope you are having the time of your life!
