Right after we got there we were able to spend some good time with my friend Aubrey and her boyfriend Nam! It was so good to see them and eat dinner! We always love anytime we can spend with Aubrey because it is always filled with such love and good laughs!
The next day we went to Disneyland where we used our free passes we earned through the Disney give-a-day get-a-day program back in February. It was so so nice to not have to pay $76.00x2 to get into Disneyland this time and instead we got in FREE!!!! I know right... it was awesome! Anyway Disneyland was way fun but we have discovered (since BOTH of us have been there a million times before) We just don't enjoy it as much when it is just us too... Maybe it is the waiting in line and not enough to talk about to occupy us or something or maybe its because Joe and I both are just such social beans we hate to be alone hahah anyway it was still fun over all. Later that day though we got to meet up with my good friend Lauren Brown who works for Disney and spend the evening with her riding some rides and watching the firework show( my favorite part). Seeing Lauren was so awesome since the last time I got to see her was by chance running into her in the airport while she was on her way to Denmark for her mission and we were going to Las Vegas for a vacation like 3 years ago!! Anyway Lauren is a really good friend of mine form my childhood and it just was so awesome to be able to spend some time with this wonderful lady! :)
After that day...
Was Thanksgiving day!!!!! Since my grandma and grandpa died about 9 or 10 years ago my mom has been holding thanksgiving dinner at our house as also a family reunion for all my family on my moms side (The reeves)! Anyway this year was no different I believe we counted a good 66 people in all that came to thanksgiving this year so ya as you can imagine it was pretty crowded but AWESOME! I loved being able to see all my aunts and uncles and cousins and their own families now it was great!

After that....
Was BLACK FRIDAY!!!! Yay its like another Christmas for me and also a good reason to go shopping!! hahah since i pretty much only show in the months of November and December I might as well soak it up i guess! Anyway my mom and I hit up Khols and the mall that day and boy was it an adventure There were so many people there but i gotta say the deals made it worth it :)!
After that...
We drove home... It was bitter sweet but it sure was a long ride and I am so proud of Maddux for making it the whole way with out one little peep! :)
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone
