Thanksgiving

We went up to Montana for Thanksgiving. On Wednesday the 23, we flew in. As we were beginning our descent, the pilot came over the intercom to tell us the weather in Billings, "it's a balmy negative 12 in Billings today." GAH! It was cold! After we settled in a little bit (dropped our bags off at Denny & Rita's) we went to Jason's favorite, El Burrito, for lunch. Later that night we had Lobster for dinner. The next day was spent preparing for Thanksgiving dinner. I made chocolate mousse pie, Jason made my uncle mark's sweet potatoes, and Denny made everything else. Everything turned out sooo good!

Later that night... Jason and I stayed up for Black Friday sales!We were at WalMart at midnight for some of their great sales! We got everything we were looking for! Then we went back home, toyed with the idea of staying up until our next outing, decided against it, and went to sleep for 2 ish hours. Then it was time to go to Target. We got there and waited in line for maybe 10 minutes, luckily we weren't looking for a tv or anything. We got in, found what we were looking for. Jason got the last hard-drive on the shelf and some lady wanted to get one so she asked if they could scan the barcode to see if they had any left in the back. They didn't and Jason let the lady take the hard-drive. It was really nice of him. We found a couple of movies that were on sale and I got in the electronics line (because the normal line wrapped around the entire store and most of the people in that line had tv's and a lot of stuff), Jason went to see if he could find the Simpson's season that was advertised and when he got back he had found it, and he said he found where the rest of the hard-drives were hiding, so he got one of those too.

After we checked out, we went back home again to sleep and then Jason took me to Jo-Ann's! They were having a killer of a sale! So much stuff was 50-60% off and they had some fleece for $2.99 a yard (normally 10ish a yard) and snuggle flannel for $1.29 a yard!!!! Oh my gosh I stocked up!!!! I got A LOT of fabric! I even went back later that evening to get more!

The next day Jason and I went with Rita to get Sams club cards, and then we picked up a couple of things for the baby shower up there. Rita and I dropped Jason off and headed over to Quita's for the shower. She had just finished putting up the decorations when we arrived and we quickly assembled the food items just in time for the shower.

Adorable diaper cake Quita got for the shower! (The bottle in the background was filled with skittles, can you guess how many?)

Rita working on the food in the kitchen before people arrived. (I LOVED the decorations!)

I had so much fun at the shower! We ate good food, played some really fun games, and then opened presents. Everyone was so generous! This baby already has more clothes than me, and they are so much cuter too!

We had a lot of fun up in Montana! It was great getting to see lots of family, and eat lots of good food we didn't have to cook!
