turkey bender

I don't know about you but I am fighting some serious hangovers...turkey hangover...sweet potato casserole hangover...stuffing hangover...pecan pie hangover...you get the idea.  The family was over on Turkey day and even though the ham was a little late to the party (sometimes I forget things) dinner was fan-fricken-tastic. 

We all ate, drank and laughed all afternoon, watched the Detroit Lions lose, and planned our attack on Black Friday sales amongst the ads.  It was the exact way I like to spend my very favorite holiday of the year.

A few friends stopped by after dinner time and we watched "Home Alone" while we swapped holiday stories and prepared to embark on our shopping excursion.  The shopping plan did not exactly pan out accordingly (people are wacky), but we did walk away with some steals and deals and were home from shopping by 2am.  We went home and slipped into a food coma.  The perfect end to a very relaxing holiday.

The remainder of the weekend was just as relaxing and yummy.  I do believe I ate my way from one day to the next and that would be the reason we are headed to get a new treadmill last Monday.  It was ended on Sunday with my baby Bella Rue's 3rd birthday.  Her and Bo got some sweet treats.
