A Good Weekend!


Black Friday Shopping! Woo-Hoo! After sitting in traffic for 50 minutes, we finally arrive at the Outlets ready to shop at 2AM!


Oh My, Oh My... We played the Diaper Game at the Baby Shower. Each Diaper was filled with Snickers, Prunes, Pears...you've got the idea!


It was so nice to have time with John. Here he is with his oldest sister!


John with his pregnant sister. Next time John is home, he will meet his newest niece!



All in all, it was a fantastic three days. Thursday, we were blessed to share a delicious Thanksgiving meal with family. Friday (early, early) morning, my daughters and I enjoyed our Black Friday tradition. Friday night we went to see the Winter Lights at the park, a tradition for the past 13 years! Saturday was the Baby Shower which was so nice to share with very special friends and family! Saturday night was a yummy pizza dinner at J&K's. John is on the road as I type, heading back to Wright-Patterson.

God is Good!

aam... thank you for your kind words of my family! Believe it or not, I only witnessed one incredibly rude person all morning. I make it a point to thank all the store clerks for working such wacky hours. We like shopping the outlets, it gives us a chance to walk outside and breathe some crisp (30 degree) air!

What a beautiful, beautiful family you have; thanks for sharing the pictures. I LOVE baby showers, and this diaper game you speak of sounds like a hoot--I have never played that one before :).

So glad you had a good Thanksgiving weekend; God is very, very good!

This was my first black friday experience. The deals were great, but I had to call it...more crowd than I could take!
Sounds like you had a wonderful holiday! Keep on enjoying!
