Happy BELATED Turkey Day and Black Friday!
went up to sac-town to visit my aunt and uncle (whom we only see pretty
much once a year) for thanksgiving… my parents drove separately to
pick up my grandparents so pat, my sister and i drove separately…. we
definitely took a roundabout way but it was really neat…. we ended up
driving along the river along the levees and going through small towns
we’d never been through and crossed several draw bridges….
we probably left like an hour after my parents but got there 10 minutes
after they arrived…. but we almost beat them!!! oh well… we
definitely had a much more pleasant drive than they did sitting in
traffic!
the traditional turkey cameo with the grandkids and my sister in a food comagot to eat DELICIOUS, moist willy bird (turkey) my aunt got at the
market… soooooo yummy…. it was nice to catch up with them…. they
always go on interesting trips and stuff… and the typical dinner
converstations…. with my grandpa repeating things…. etc…plus we
got to show them our wedding pix… we actually spent a much longer
time than usual there, which was nice, but the drive back was more
trafficky than expected….. although the only time we encountered a
traffic jam was over near the bay bridge heading into the city… but
that was it….woke up early today to go to best buy…. i set my alarm to 430am but i
couldn’t get myself up…. so finally ended up waking up at like 630/7
and decided to head over around 730… missed out on some of the really
good deals i wanted but settle for still other good deals…. watched
part of the texas/texas a&m game and then headed over to rei for
some more shopping… and then came home….hope you all had a good thankgiving and shopping day!

sounds like you had an awesome day… any good deals at REI? I wish we had one closer…
We have draw bridges in California?!?!?!
I need a shopping partner for REI when I get up there this Christmas…want to go again?
(Why do I even ask…I’ll just pick you up!)
i didn’t know you took that!
dude, we were in line at fry’s at 12:45, and there were still like 40 people ahead of us. i would imagine a similar situation at best buy.
Wow, did you need to be up that early for Best Buy? That’s an interesting quandry… Kelly’s love of shopping vs. Kelly’s love of sleep in an all out brawl…
Hey Kel-
Nope, I’m not going to AGU… sorry. Well, I was in the Bay area, but only for a few hours at a time. I didn’t have any free time.. it was more of a transfer point between the SLC and OR. I’ll see you soon, I promise.
hey did you see chicken little? how was it?
