Thanksiversary

So for those of you that don't know, our anniversary is on November 27th. Thus we have claimed Thanksgiving as our own holiday to do whatever we please by ourselves.


This self-proclaimed "Thanksiversary" we decided to cook our own feast and do absolutely nothing...again. It was quite nice.

We (as in I) prepped the turkey and shoved it in the oven!

"We" went and bought a TV on sale because ours pooped out.

We had to destroy our audio tower to have the cords fit through the back (We didn't have the tool we needed). What man doesn't love power tools! ;P

After we set up our TV, we ate our Thanksgiving dinner. The turkey was so moist and delicious and I loved my traditional sugar glazed carrots!

On Black Friday, I faced the crazies to get a few good deals on christmas gifts. (Not too early though.) It was only 8 am and the shelves were already picked over!

What kind of Thanksgiving would be complete without dressing up like a pirate!? Arrggggh!

And Last but not least, what is Thanksgiving without a bunch of Black Friday crazy people shopping?!

Notice the antlers?

It was all fabulous! Can't wait for Christmas!

Black Friday

Did you know there is an Official Black Friday Website that gives you the scoop on the deals going on?! Neither did I until I stumbled upon this gold mine (literally pretty much).

Click HERE if you are going to risk being trampled and shot on Black Friday. There is a reason they call it Black... you come out all black (and blue) from the old ladies elbowing you out of the way. ;P

OUR THANKSIVERSARY

Our anniversary is on Nov 27th (every year!) so we like to have Thanksgiving to ourselves. We cook our own Thanksgiving feast and we look forward to it every year because we can just do what we want and don't have to worry about anything. It is quite nice. I was just thinking how fast time flies. We have lived in this house for 3 1/2 years! Can you believe it! Below is a recap of all our thanksgivings that we have cooked (and they are all in this house! Crazy!)

Below those pics are some from this year. Enjoy.

Thanksgiving Divorce

A man in Phoenix calls his son in New York the day before Thanksgiving and says, "I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are getting a divorce....forty-five years of misery is enough."

"Pop, what are you talking about?" the son screams.

"We can't stand the sight of each other any longer" the father says. "We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Chicago and tell her."

Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone. "Like heck they're getting divorced..." she shouts. "I'll take care of this."

She calls Phoenix immediately, and screams at her father, "You are NOT getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don't do a thing, DO YOU HEAR ME?" and hangs up.

The old man hangs up the phone and turns to his wife. "Okay," he says, "They're coming for Thanksgiving, and paying their own way."
