Happy late turkey day fellow LJers! I hope you all had a good one. I had an amazing Thanksgiving. Zan & I started off by going to my grandma's at two, where we ate a little bit and visited with the whole family. I hadn't seen my aunt in a few months so it was good to see her, and my little cousins are always hilarious to be around. After that we went to the Boykin's around 4. Nate wasn't there so it was us, his parents, the oldest brother & his wife and son. Their son is so cute, I love playing with that kid. He was cracking us up the whole time. We had a nice time just sitting around visiting while waiting for dinner to be ready, then we ate again, helped with the post dinner cleanup, and left to visit my aunt's house. There we indulged in all the baked goods that they had (I had enough FOOD by this point, and I didn't do dessert at the other places because I KNEW I'd be doing it there! haha) and just sat around talking to my aunt & Alicia for hours. We were going through old photos and talking about all kinds of random stuff. We didn't leave there until almost one in the morning!

We came home for a few minutes and headed out to the bar to meet up with Josh. Ran into some of Zan's old friends, and some more people we knew, and hung out drinking & having a good time. Before we knew it it was 4 am, and people were leaving to go black friday shopping. We decided it would be a fun idea to go to Walmart and check out the crowds and try to find a good deal because I've never done it, but we were so poorly prepared. I think maybe we were too early, because there were alot of people just standing around in the aisles like they were waiting for something. There was no running, snatching, people pushing around full carts, anything like I normally hear about from people who've gone black friday shopping previous years. I could only remember a few advertised deals from the ad online & I couldn't find any of them, and I was on this big rant because I really wanted to buy a whole set of new bath towels. hahaha. When we left I was running around in the freezing cold in the parking lot telling people not to go inside because it was lame & that they should go to Belks because they're giving out free gift cards.

Yeah...needless to say we came home and went to bed after that. I had a wonderful time though! It was a very busy long day, but I enjoyed every second of every minute of yesterday. Today? Not so much...I didn't get enough sleep and I need to take a shower in hopes that it will perk me up some. Blah!
