Thanksgiving! and Black Friday!

Thanksgiving is celebrated differently than down south. Everyone goes to church on Thanksgiving for a feast. Whale is served along side the turkey. The only church that I know of that wasn't having a feast was St. Patrick's. I have not visited this church yet. I spoke to someone at the AC about where to go on Thanksgiving. She told me anywhere and they all had lots of food to share. 

We spent Thanksgiving Day sleeping in and wearing pjs for most of the day. We have been fighting colds and stomach bugs. Everyone just needed rest. It felt good to sleep in until 8am and not have to worry about work. 

Black Friday shopping is very different. The AC store opened at regular time. There were some good deals but they are the same deals that are happening all week. They had 24 pack of ramen on sale for $11.49. I couldn't pass that up. The girls love ramen noodles, but we throw the season packets in the trash. We boil the noodles and add frozen veggies to the boiling water. When its finished we add a few drops of soy sauce. Bacon, sausage and fruit juice was marked 50% off. Sold. I'm thinking about going back today and buying a set of flannel sheets for my upcoming birthday present. 

Saturday is the mini lock in for Science Olympiad. I will take lots of pictures of it. 

Sunday is my last day off and I have to go into work to set up some stuff for next week. I'm working on a new spot to display my vocabulary words.
