Thanksgiving, No Shopping, and Snow

Thanksgiving went well other than Josh having a cold. We didn't go visiting since Josh didn't feel so hot. Ryan liked the turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, and fruit salad. He didn't care for the cranberries though because he made a 'yucky' face and then he spit the cranberries down his shirt.

We didn't go shopping after Thanksgiving at all. There was just no way we were going to fight the crowds. It was a good weekend to just be lazy and hang around the house.

Yesterday it was spitting snow almost all day long. I wasn't expecting snow at all! It seems like we hadn't had snow in November in years. Being in south Arkansas, it usually doesn't snow until late December-January.

I took Ryan for a drive last night to look at the Christmas lights around town. Not many people had put them up yet, but there were a few. Ryan really enjoyed it!

I definitely did the no shopping thing on Friday. I went to Wal-mart at 4:30 in the morning last year, and vowed to never do that again.

:] We eat Christmas cookies in the car when we look at lights... Usually we do it closer to Christmas, though, because then more people have them up.
