Usually, every year, Thanksgiving involves going to 3 different places to stuff ourselves with turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, pancit, ribs, roast beef, etc. This year we only went to Grandpa Rudy's and The Dela Cruz's house. Auntie Marie had surgery the Tuesday prior and had told us that they weren't going to plan anything for Thanksgiving. Thankfully, she's doing well. Regretfully, we didn't take any pictures at Grandpa Rudy's, but as always the food was DELICIOUS!!! We met up with my sister and her family there, but after 2 or so hours of getting our grub on, we had to leave to go to Jenner's sisters' house. The spread is always eyecatching & of course delicious as well.
This year I also decided to join Annalou in some Black Friday shopping madness at Toys R Us. It wasn't too bad. We got in line around 11pm & doors opened at 12am. We split up & found things on her list. Good tag-teaming. Luckily Jenner got paid so I was able to spend a little on the deals. The best part of the morning was when Annalou bumped into an old friend of hers (whom she was trying to avoid, but kept seeing! haha) Worst part of the morning-the line! I think we stayed in line for 2 hours and I just made it home in time for Jenner to go to work at 5am!
All in all it was a great Thanksgiving.
I'm thankful to God for my loving husband, my caring children, my health and also my family & friends that have enriched my life with their friendship! God has blessed me!!!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!
