Thanksgiving break was awesome. The house was a wreck because of the painting/remodeling but I survived off of restaurant food for a week. I got home monday night and just hung with the family and dropped Jason off at the airport. Tuesday I had to get up early to go to the courthouse for my Business paper...joy...needless to say I'm glad thats over with. Especially considering that the paper is due tomorrow O:-) I came home tuesday got some much needed rest and then wednesday Kat and I went shopping and then met everyone that was home for lunch at bertuccis. I had never eaten there before but it was good. The best part was the surprise phone call from Missy. It made my day to talk to her. I miss her so much! I still didn't get more international stamps though...darn! After lunch I left with Kat to discover that route 1 was blocked because of a fatality. We got turned back onto the parkway and had to take the long way home which of course was backed up because no one could get through. It took over two hours to get home on a ride that normally takes around 15 minutes. It was good to see everyone though and we turned up the music and danced the entire way. Thursday of course was thanksgiving. I ate a lot of good food and enjoyed spending the day with my family and sleeping quite a bit. I love naptime! Mom, Dad and I went home thursday night. Dad had to work on friday and Mom and I had a lot of shopping to do! We got up early and went to Fair Oaks mall. I wasn't too impressed with the selection this year. Maybe it'll get better before Christmas. We shopped until around noon and then went home and worked for a while and took naps. Around 4 we went to Springfield mall and shopped for another little while. We got home around 7 and then I went to see Christmas with the Kranks with Ashley. It was really good actually...even if the reviews were bad. Saturday was another day for early rising but I got to sleep some on the ride back to my grandparents (my brother stayed there) and we went shopping in richmond. We bought a lot more Christmas presents and a lot of food for me to bring back after Christmas. I got to sleep in this morning and woke up feeling terrible. Damn sickness! Needless to say I am now back at school playing catch up on the work that I didn't do over break. Two weeks til Winter break...I'm counting down...
