{Thanksgiving week}

We went down to Columbus to pick up Ryan, Shane's brother, and his wife Ashley and son Ethan on the Monday before Thanksgiving. We spent the night down in Hocking Hills at a cabin on Monday and Tuesday night. It was gorgeous, secluded, and tons of fun. We spent a lot of time in the Hot Tub! that was located outside on the back deck. And lots of time eating sweets and talking. It was a blast. Then we came back here to enjoy Thanksgiving day. We cooked a ton of food and ate on it the whole next day after Thanksgiving. We played games, chatted a TON, ate lots of crap, and enjoyed Black Friday. Well, i should say that Ryan and Shane enjoyed black friday. They went out twice that day. They got up at like 3 or 4 in the morning. They came home around 7:30 a.m. and then they left to go out again just a few minutes after they got home. We enjoyed the results of their shopping experience. :) Then we all went out together later that night. Ashley and I went and watched New Moon the night before Thanksgiving. We LOVED it!!! Then we went and got the new scent at Bath and Body Works called "Twilite Woods"....it is a wonderful scent. hhhmmmm. Ash and i went out for a few runs and we both got new matching running outfits that we LOVE. I am now finally back in my running mode and feeling the motivation for it again! I am starting to feel back to my old self after having Jaydon! Though i still do NEED a vacation! ;) We went to Kirtland and looked at all the Nativities that are displayed, went to Arby's, and went to the Mall in Mentor. Ashley and Ryan just bought a home so we went into Sear's to look at all the appliances for the kitchen. Ohhhhhhhh it was fun and i cannot WAIT until we can build a home one day. :) How exciting. We did lots of fun things and really enjoyed being together. We have lots of fun together. I didn't take many pics. But i do have some of our Table with all the food on it. And a few of the cabin we stayed in. Now we are looking forward to seeing them again at Shane's Graduation in May, along with the rest of his family and mine!! woohoo.
