Gobble, Gobble

Thanksgiving was in Malta this year, (I mean 2011) and we had a blast. We had a fun filled Thanksgiving Day with the dinner, Turkey Hunt, and opening some Christmas presents early. Latara and Kenni had spent the day with us, which was way fun. We played on the Razor, and Steve and I took our Christmas picture with the 8285 tractor. The ladies then went to the Elba craft show.
Later that night, the Johnson girls participated in their first Black Friday shopping. We hit Walmart first @ 11:00PM which was crazy. We split up, and Sara and I went to Macy's where we waited outside until midnight. Then we went to Shopko, where we waited in line for 1 hour and 1/2. We stayed at Rick and Janelle's for the night and woke up to a splendid breakfast Rick and Janelle made for us. We shopped a little more, then I ate lunch with Dad and Steve at Upper Crust while the girls went home.
Aunt Vickie and Grandma Spencer came for a visit later on Friday. Then we played Don't Eat Pete with the family. On Saturday, we went to Zumba, Jacalynn's bridal shower, and played Steve's new card game.
Our Thanksgiving weekend was filled with family, fun, shopping, and yummy food. I'm thankful for my awesome family and all the fun memories we have created.
