That was then...
This is now!
Funny how we look like we're pretty much wearing the same clothes. I think this is how those "I've had this shirt since before you were born" conversations get started.
True to tradition, we kicked off our Thanksgiving morning with the Red Cross Turkey Trot. It was a lot of fun even though we briefly thought it might turn into a media frenzy because Sarah Palin was in town to visit family and had registered for the race this year. We didn't even see her, so that actually gives her cool points in my book. Audrey seemed to enjoy the festivities, but was tuckered out. As soon as we got home, she ate her approximate body weight in bread pudding and then took the world's longest nap. When she woke up, the house was a frenzy of activity; we had close to 30 people over for dinner...that means more than enough people to watch the kid for me; it was really nice to be able to stuff my face without interruption. I'm sure Bailey appreciated it too.
The day after Thanksgiving, the house was divided into two camps: People who went out at midnight to do Black Friday shopping and people who actually value sleep. You can guess which camp I was in. Instead of braving the crowds in the hopes of finding something I couldn't live without at an unbelievable price, we took the Riviera out of the garage to get her running and ready for the winter; it was much more satisfying and less time consuming.
I think we're planning on getting some Christmas decorations up around the house this weekend and Eggnog Day is right around the corner! Don't forget to check out the newest pictures on Picasa!

I am there with the you on the anti-black Friday bandwagon. I really don't get it. John looks exactly the same in both pictures.
