Turkey Day Coma

I hope you all have survived your Turkey Day
Coma's. You know what I'm talking about, when
can't seem to do much of anything because you
ate to much but had a great time doing it.

We had a wonderful time. We decided not to wait
for the turkey to finish cooking because it wasn't
done when 1:00 came around (I think it was done
at about 4:00). Things like that seem to happen
for our family, how about yours? We have had
china make sparks in the microwave (Who would
think the metal trim would do that?), set toasters
on fire and had to throw them in the snow bank
outside, we have had red or green potatoes because
mom thought it would look more festive, just to
name a few.

Holidays in our family are a lot of fun!!

So after lunch we played with my Brother-in-law,
Josh's, new Wii gaming system. It was a ton of fun!!
You really get a work-out with it. Tyler was playing
tennis, bowling, boxing, and baseball and was
wondering way he was so sore a few days later. I said,
"Remember that we told you you would be sore from
playing so hard", and he said,"Oh, I thought you were
kidding." Silly kid!

Then on Friday I got up a little after 4:00, left the
house at 5:00 and was at Wal-mart at 5:15. People can
be crazy at that hour. I got my "bargains" and moved on
to the next store, and the next, and the next....

I love buying for my kids and others (I did find a thing
or 2 for myself I must admit). I love the adventure of
shopping the day after Thanksgiving. I must also say
it is very tiring and I didn't get to bed until after
10:00pm but I had a great day.

I hope you made great memories with your family
on this Thanksgiving, the day we set aside to be
thankful for all that God has blessed us with.

Thank You, Lord, for all the wonders you put in our
lives. We are truly blessed!!

Believe God,

Jamie
