Thanksgiving: The End.
I am so thankful for the holiday to have passed. Work was not nearly as crazy as it has been in years past, but that is a different story for a different day.
I think I am just ready to go right into the holiday season and not look back. I want to get the winter over with, even though it really hasn't even started yet.
I have pictures from this weekend. I thought for a really long time about what I do and do not want to post. It was a drunken mess on Wednesday night at Stacey's. Then Mike and I did the usual his family/ my family deal. AND I was not scheduled to work until 4pm on Friday and I actually decided to venture out to get new bras at 4AM! I haven't been filling the ones I had the way I used to. I was in a 40C and I had to stuff the sides of the cups with cookies or cutlets or whatever you wacky broads are calling them these days. I thought I'd have to try a 38B... I left with three 38DD bras. I was really confused. And they were the same brand and style as my last bras were. I used to fit them for women so I know a little more than the average girl about how to find a size. Oh well. I will NEVER venture out that early in the morning again for a sale that isn't even that good. I think I saved a total of $9.00... and it was definitely not worth the struggle.
Stacey has the old Malibu Saturday Rules posted on her fridge.
Mike playing bartender in Stacey's kitchen.
This was the beginning of my downfall.
And may I just add that I really don't drink often or much when I do. Recently Mike coaxed me into ordering a glass of wine at dinner, and I couldn't finish it. I was so shocked at how I skipped the warm buzz phase and went right from normal to stupid that I took a picture of how much was left in my glass by the time I got to that point.
This picture is after the first two drinks, when I should have stopped.
She wasn't being serious.
A puggle named Kiko.
(If you don't get that reference then you NEED TO WATCH THIS.)
I'm too old for this.
Aww, so pretty!
Haha look at Kiko.
Then my brother-in-law showed up.
"Yay it's Steeeeeve!"
Stacey's Mike and my Mike have recently started a war. Wherever we go on vacation respectively, the other Mike will receive a breast mug that has a nipple spout as a gift. Here is Stacey's Mike taking a shot out of the one we brought him from Vegas.
Then someone had the brilliant idea to break open the ancient bottle of Everclear.
Stacey.
Meaghan.
Then the girls broke out the rules and decided to review them.
Hahaha. "Delete it!"
And then my mom got there.
Yay Marcia!
Steve and I had some fun with mom's accessories.
My mom is so hot.
We had an incident with the red wine. But it came out!
Pickle time. Tony was offering me half of someone's pickle.
Then my cousin Carly arrived.
So awful. This is about 5 drinks in at this point. Gross.
Mike and I woke up on Stacey's couch at 2:30 in the morning to the entire place in darkness with only the two of us in the room. It was a rough night.
Thanksgiving morning we went to Mike's parents house first.
Steve and his mom made a bunch of vegan-friendly food for me.
This was Steve's gyro-inspired appetizer creation. So yummy.
Steve, Mike's mom and Grandpa.
Then we went to my grandma's house.
Her table looked so nice.
Sheesh. Somebody put us in front of a house and hand Mike a pitch fork.
Darling.
The finished product for my potluck brownies with the sparkle icing.
(It was not edible)
And finally... what time it was when I left to go shopping on Friday.
Joe made me Tofurkey on Friday. It was SO good, I was sorry I hadn't tried it sooner. He even had a fake jerky-like wishbone!! I won, but forgot to make a wish. :)
I hope everyone had a lovely holiday.
xoxo
