Thanksgiving 2010

This Thanksgiving it was hard not to be reminded about how much we have to be thankful for. Our friends and family, our health and the health of our girls, my dads six week stay up at Mayo to help him cope with his pain, our home and food to eat to name just a few.

We had a great Thanksgiving weekend and were happy to share it with both my family and Adam's (sorry MN family--we aren't that good to make it to all three in one day!) and were able to see some great friends! Reagan had a blast with all of her cousins and Avery got some extra holding time by all.

One of Adam's friends told him about a tradition that they started a couple years ago at Thanksgiving so we thought we would start it as well. We bought a white tablecloth and will take it with us wherever we spend Thanksgiving. Everyone we are with will write down something they are thankful for that year. It will be so neat to go back and read what we all have been thankful for through the years.

Of course my mom and I headed out for some Black Friday shopping. We didn't do as much this year as we have in the past but still carried out our tradition and picked up a few Christmas gifts to get us started. We did head out to Toys R Us Thursday night but quickl turned around when we saw how long the line was just to get in. Guess we weren't the only ones that thought it was a good idea!
