Thanksgiving '09

**For some reason it's not letting me move my pics so it's just going to have to stay here (and out of order)**




Decorating for Christmas!


All ready for the UF vs FSU game!

My Uncle snuck Sophie some chocolate for during breakfast! AND she has discovered her nose lately, ha!


Playing with Cade who is my cousin Tanner's boy. He was SO good with Sophie!


Sophie is ALWAYS playing with her tongue some how! Glad I finally got it on camera!


Sophie terriorized this poor dog!! She LOVES animals and goes crazy anytime she sees one!! He was pretty patient with her until the end and we had to keep her away from him! Bless his heart!







This Thanksgiving was perfect!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the holidays and was so excited to share it with Sophie this year that I couldn't even sleep Wednesday night, ha!! We got up Thursday morning and headed to Homosassa Springs to my Aunt Renee's (FYI - my middle name comes from her) house. On the way to my Aunt's we stopped and visited with my dad for a bit. He had a funeral to do the next day so he was in town. We arrived at my aunt's just in time to eat, ha! I meant to get there early to help cook, but traffic wasn't very good so the trip there took a lot longer than expected. There was a house full of family waiting some what patiently for us to arrive so that we could eat :)! It was such a wonderful feeling to be surrounded by family!
Basically, all we did this weekend was talk, fish - I don't fish, I just hang out with the others, watch football, and eat until we were stuffed! It was so much fun!
I did something that I said I would never do...I went shopping on Black Friday! It wasn't just shopping it was going to Toys R Us at 12am and standing outside in the freezing cold for two hrs! What us mothers do for our babies, ha! It was actually a lot of fun! I hate to admit it, but I had to REALLY refrain from being "one of those shoppers"! You know the kind that push people out of the way with my buggy, tackle another for the toy they have, and make little kids cry because their lil' legs can't carry them out of my way fast enough! I did end up getting some great toys for Sophie at half price! I am having a HARD time not giving them to her, ha! I've always been the type to tell what I get people just because I get so excited I can't keep it in, ha! I don't know what I'm going to do when Sophie is older! She's going to have to convince ME to wait!
