Just now taking the time to post about Thanksgiving …

We stayed here on Thursday and went to Ken’s brother’s house for a family dinner. I made a chocolate pie using mom’s secret recipe … it was so secret that I had to call her to get the secret ingredient - she didn’t even put it on the recipe card!!

It actually took less than 45 minutes to make, and it was just as good as I remember. Yummmm.

We didn’t get up early for Black Friday shopping - but we did go out mid-morning just to see how crazy things were. Kohl’s and Toys R Us were both happening places, but traffic wasn’t bad at all. I got some blanket sleepers at Sears for $5/each, and I am KICKING myself for not getting more in her current size and larger sizes.

Saturday, E and I hit the road to Georgia to see my family. It was an icky, rainy day, but the 1.5 hour drive goes by pretty fast. We were able to get a portable DVD player for supah cheap on Friday, so she watched Dora the Explorer all the way down — and I learned a lot of Spanish.

For some reason, I didn’t take any pictures while we were down there, but we had loads of fun. And mom’s cooking is something I can NEVER get enough of.

So that was our Thanksgiving. Hope you all had a great holiday!
