Happy Thanksgiving and Black Friday!

Hey people! I hope you had a wonderful thanksgiving... I know that I did. I love getting to spend time with my friends and family. Especially my immediate family because they are hilarious. If you've never met my family, you are missing out on some of the most hysterical dinner (or non-dinner-appropriate) conversations known to man. That is probably due to the fact that my family is a cast of characters... which I love. Funny and genuine people all. So I hope that you had as great of a day as I did, juggling your own families and making your own dinners and memories and traditions.

In fact, I made what may become a new tradition this year. I have never been able to make myself wake up before the sun on black friday and hit the door buster sales. I've always wanted to, but always set my alarm and then sleep right on through it. This year I had my lovely friend Alex spend the night, we woke up a little after 4 am, picked up my youngest sister Devon, and off we went to the mall. We got there a little after five, and people were already leaving with their treasures. Crazy. It really was. Five is as early as I could make myself start though. I know that waking up and being there by four is only an hour difference... but really now. =) Anywhoo, it was really fun and I snagged tons of treasure for my honey as well as other family... and there certainly were deals to be had. If you've never shopped bright and early the day after thanksgiving, you should give it a try next year. It's pretty fun. And you'll save a bunch of money.

well... have a lovely day and have fun shopping!

I can't believe it's already November!!!!

Sorry I haven't written anything in a while, guys! I've been a bit pre-occupied working on my new and greatly improved website, which I will hopefully have done within the month, but then again who knows... =) It will be much snazzier and easier on the eyes as well as choc-full of new stuff.

Soooo... I do have a bunch of photos I haven't blogged... so maybe sometime this week I will post some stuff.

Well my friends, have a lovely (and if you live in Chicago) snowy day!
