The Day After Thanksgiving

Usually I am one of those crazy people that get up at 5 a.m. to hit the stores. But not this year. After carefully examining the ads we decided that there really wasn't anything worth getting up that early for. And I'm really glad we didn't because at about 10 p.m. Kambrie started throwing up and continued every hour until 3 a.m. She was in bed with Kauri and Megan so I made her a bed on our floor so I got to hear each time she lost it. The poor girl. So needless to say it wasn't a big sleep night for me.

Shelly and I decided to run to ShopKo about 10 a.m. and it wasn't a bad crazy place to be, except this one lady pretty much ran me down with her shopping cart. I seriously had to get out of her way. . . crazy! I got what I wanted, then we headed to Target. It seemed pretty much like a normal shopping day there. I guess a little different when it is 11 a.m. not 5 a.m. We got a few movies there, stopped at Hallmark to check out the Webkinz and headed home. Quite the short shopping trip for us.

The men had been out shopping. . . not like us, but for stuff for yet another house project. They came home and started cutting and pounding out in the garage. They are making some usable storage space in the attic of the garage. Once I had lunch, I napped for a while, trying to make up for some of the lost sleep from the previous night. We took Kaden and Dusty to an outdoor skate park and shopped around for a big mirror for the kids bathroom. Came home and ate more left overs. I love leftovers!

After the younger kids went to bed the evening was spent watching Cool Tools on DIY. . . well, I wasn't really watching mostly just reading my book. Phil had been very excited to watch this.

Here they are, memorized by the Cool Tools.
