Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas!

We had a great Thanksgiving spending time with both families! Ate too much food as always, but that's probably the best day to overeat if you're going to! Jack and I were a teency bit sick Monday and now are pretty much back to normal. Just about 3 weeks left to do shopping, so we're on the job!

The best kept secret of where to go on Black Friday - the Mall of America - who knew? We got there around 7 with a good place to park and everyone just sort of ambling around. We got everything we were looking for and much much more! Keep me away from Janie and Jack - that store is too cute!! If you haven't been there, it's the cutest store for baby clothes I've ever seen. Mostly, I just look; but every now and then, I splurge and get something on sale-ha! So then by the time everyone else is starting to get there, we're done and can hit the other stores that aren't at the mall.

Jack is saying so many things including unexpected things like Sunday when we were out to eat with the Pastor. He says, "Hey, Pator! It dow!" That means sit down. I told him that "Please join us" sounds much better. So now we have to learn what to say and when.

And my dad teaching him how to pray: "Say Jesus...Jesus. Say thank you...thank you. Say for....five...." He's learning to count and didn't know the difference between the "fors".

Anyway, lots of fun! Looking so forward to this season with Jack. We're having a great time! Hope you are, too!
