Derek is packing the car as I sit here. He’s the World’s Most Efficient Car Packer, and since we are going home with a truckload of presents, efficiency is key. I’ll just let him do his job and sit here and blog. Okay, so I failed miserably at blogging every day this month. Ah, well. I was too busy hanging out with family, friends, eating, playing nerts, and shopping. I love black Friday! My mom, sister, and I are usually among those crazy people out at the crack of dawn. But Miss Camryn decided to sleep until 7:30 yesterday morning, so it was 9:00 before we even got to Kohl’s. It was perfect! The major crowds were gone, and they were restocking the shelves. I was able to get everything I needed from there and at Target. I’m mostly done Christmas shopping!
I can’t believe the holiday season is officially here! I’m excited to get home and set up the Christmas stuff. This is my favorite time of year!
Other blogs to come…Sometimes I Act Like a Kid (and more evidence that I am most definitely a middle child), 7 Things about Logan, and 7 Things about Camryn. (Does anyone else have to say things out loud to remember them? This last paragraph is really just a note to self.)
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! (Just a bit late…)
and…
Have a safe trip home!!
gotta love those husband car packers! mine is so good too! have a safe, and wonderful trip! I can’t wait to see the 7 things about Camryn and Logan. 🙂

Thank you so much for your encouragement! I miss you and I’m so glad you’re my sister!
Happy Thanksgiving to you girlie and your family! I’ve only shopped at Black Friday once…wasn’t able to go this time around. But I don’t mind the crowds when you’re getting such great deals :). Hope you’re doing well.
Do you know that I had such a busy birthday that I missed about 4 dedicated birthday posts to myself. This would be one of them.
Anyhow – I love you.
