Thanksgiving
mmmm......Ham........
mmmmm.....Turkey....
Mmmmm.....Stuffing...
Mmmmm....Stuffed!
Everyone gathered at my Grandparent's place to celebrate Thanksgiving this year. This meant a large farmer meal and some good times spent hanging out with blood. I got to see my two new cousins, Annabelle(5) and Sophie(1years old). I also spent time with my Uncle Michael and Aunt Katya. Aunt Katya, btw seems to have adapted to American food pretty well. Last year we realized that she didn't even recognize half of the foods on the table. You really don't realize how much of what we eat is truly American food until then.
The women also held there War Meeting for tomorrow. Wish lists were gathered and filled out(forcibly in the case of the two Roberts...Who were imitaing each other waaay too much again). Discussions ranged from scheduling which store to show up at and which store should my Father be sent to> (My father is usually assigned one of the stores to solo as his 6'5" frame always him to fight crowds better. The rest of the time he forms a traffic shield for mom, who just moves in behind him.)
There was a debate as to whether or not Best Buy should be attempted. There was several injuries and at least one trampling last year.... As for me, I'm starting to be gratefully the company is asking me to do overtime tomorrow. I'll be shopping EBay :p
