So we had our very first Thanksgiving dinner with the Gublers. It was a very productive and busy weekend. We came in that morning and I made the stuffing and nooked it in the microwave when we got there, you know me, good ole Betty Croker clone. We had a delicious meal, good food and company. It was fun to have all of Nathan's family there, except Spencer on his mission. After we ate, we than looked at all the Black Friday ads. I have never really done the extreme Black Friday Sales like show up at midnight or 3 AM. So we decided to make a plan and a night of it. We went to Wal-mart at 10 PM, Black Friday Sale in Vegas, just a little crazy and overwhelming. Then we headed over to Kohl's, Target. Nathan went to Frye's Electronics for a little helicopter. He was never so excited about a gift. We didn't get back until 3 AM, then woke up at 7 AM and went out again at 8 AM. It was INTENSE to say the least. Then we got back that afternoon and helped my in-laws move all of their stuff from their house Friday and Saturday into their new rental :) It was kind of sad to see them leaving their home that had been their's for years, but fun to see them in a new beginning as well. I love Nathan's family and so grateful for having such sincere and giving in-laws.
