All of us were in the kitchen at some point--whether helping with brunch, the Thanksgiving meal or the appetizers to help tide us over before the big meal. Here are a few pictures of my brother and I along with his new dog Jack who wanted in on all the fun (and food!).
Who said an apron wasn't manly?!
While waiting for the turkey to finish cooking, Amber, Richard, Shannon and I made Turkey Oreos. I had made them with my class right before we left for break and had a bunch of stuff left over. It was fun!
Shannon & my sister
The runt in the middle is my brother's contribution!
Shannon and Richard's turkeys--a little love for this holiday season!
Lastly, no Thanksgiving is complete without a little Black Friday shopping. We had planned to head out Thanksgiving evening at midnight to see what the outlets had in store but most of us were fast asleep on the couch by 10pm so that plan was out. (I could not even believe that stores were opening at 12midnight. I thought it was a joke when I first read the hours--it is absolutely ludicrous! What is our world coming to?!! HONESTLY!!)
We then opted for a little 5am action in town but when that 4:30am wake up call came, Amber and I could not bear to leave our warm beds to brave either the cold or the dark so Shannon and Richard bit the bullet and took one for the team. There were at the local stores by 4:45am--such dedication!
I hit the factory stores in Cabazon with Shannon at 10am. It was CROWDED--to say the least!! It took us about an hour to find a parking spot. SO INSANE! Once we were inside, there were lines to get into the stores. I could not believe it. Needless to say, we did not stay super long.
Christmas is now right around the corner!! I am so EXCITED!! I LOVE this time of year!
