The week of Thanksgiving:
Monday-housework, cleaning and baking
Tuesday- I took Isaac and Caleb out to my aunt's house, my sister, my cousin, and Grandparents were there...we went to the mall and visited (I found dress shoes for all three boys)
Wednesday- Andrew had the day off from school, so I took all 3 boys to get pictures taken (I will post pictures when I get them back) After getting pictures taken we went to Toys r us to get a small toy for being good, then back to my aunt's house to visit with fmaily. For dinner, my sister, my 2 cousins and my cousin's room mate and I went to Dave and Busters where we got the "eat and play" deal...$15.99 for dinner and a $10 game card. When our game cards ran out we had cold stone for dessert (yummy). We made it back to my aunt's house around 8:30 to pick up the kids. Isaac was already asleep, so he slept over.
Thursday- Went back to aunt's house for dinner and card games (learned how to play hand and foot) and pie, plenty of pie. I ended up staying the night at my Aunt's since the first store I wanted to be at Friday morning was about 10 minutes away, so David took all 3 boys home by himself (first time having all three overnight by himself)
Friday- Suzie and I got up at 4:30am to be at Toys R Us by 5am, out of there by 5:35am and over to Target where we waited in line until it opened at 6am, got what we needed and were out by 6:30...we hit several other stores including Kohls, JC Penny, Macy's, Disney Store, breakfast break, JC Penny Home store, Starbucks and by noon we were back at Aunt Marie's for more cards and lunch. I went to JoAnn's with my Grandma and Aunt and they had a great sale on scrapbook paper (16 cents a page) so I stocked up. I got everything I needed for Christmas gifts, and stayed on budget (I think I may take a few things back) We took Suzie to the airport and then me home where Aunt Marie picked up Isaac.
Saturday- We headed to Columbia MO for the KU vs MU football game, box seats care of MBS, it was a great view and yummy food in our suite. After KU lost miserably to MU we headed back to Aunt Marie's to pick up Isaac (he didn't get to go because it was a 2 1/2 hour drive each way) We got home in time to start a load of laundry (David was out of underwear) and do some dishes before heading to bed/
Sunday (today) we went to church, I made lunch, have done more laundry and cleaned the kitchen floor-next, vacuum downstairs (have to get the kids upstairs for that) I hear Isaac calling, I need to get him out of bed and feed him lunch
