Happy Thanksgiving!

I know I'm late but we hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! On Wednesday evening we headed up to Gowrie to spend Thanksgiving. We had a wonderful meal on Thursday and got to catch up with Karl and Lisa. Unfortunately it was a short visit for Andy and me. We had to head back home Thursday afternoon as we both had to work on Friday (boo!!). Since our daycare was closed on Friday, Brady got to spend time with Nana and Papa and Jaxson was also spending the night and Friday with them as well. I think they had lots of fun playing together!
On Friday morning, Andy and I braved all the other crazies and hit Black Friday before we had to work. We were up by 3:30 and out the door closely after. We got some good deals as we visited Kohls, Target and Walmart...not sure if Andy will ever do that again...ha ha! He was a trooper though! On Saturday we did some things around the house and we had a wedding to go to in West Des Moines. Brady went over to the Water's house for the evening and had SO much fun! He really played hard because he slept in until 7:45 a.m. on Sunday----he's never done that!!! It was great sleeping in a little! Thanks Jen and Jon!
On Sunday we took Brady to Portrait Innovations for his 1 year pictures...NEVER AGAIN will be be going there. We only went there this time because our usual photographer Sarah has been so busy dealing with family issues. What a zoo/nightmare PI was...aghh...should have learned our lesson after Brady's 3 month pictures we had done there but I guess I was desperate to get his pictures done before his birthday. We managed to get one good shot (which is hard to believe we only had a couple that were good as Brady is so smiley) so not all was lost. We've had a busy week so far and it's going to get even more crazy with Brady's 1 year birthday on Sunday. I can't believe he's going to be 1 in a few days...we have lots to do to get ready for his party!!!

What a turkey!
