Idaho Thanksgiving

Our family spent Thanksgiving 2011 in Idaho. We had limited time, but we managed to see most of our families. We enjoyed visiting and spending the holiday with all of them. We first had Thanksgiving dinner at Tom and Frankie's which Craig did an excellent job preparing. Then, Tracy, Gail and I headed out for some crazy Black Friday shopping that started at 9pm on Thanksgiving night, Crazy! We had such a great time that we kind of forgot that we stood in so many lines. We ended our shopping spree at 5am and ate breakfast at Ihop then we all took a nap. It was great!

Then it was off to my mom's place where we had another dinner and got caught up on life. My mom had all the her Christmas gifts together so we were sent home with them. We then visited Great Grandma and my Dad. We all were very thankful that we could fit in to see everyone. Our suv was so full and packed tight that we had to leave a few things behind to be brought down in a few weeks. We felt like we were driving Santa's sleigh with all the Christmas gifts inside plus our luggage.

I like the sign that says "Line forms here" because we got to that point after waiting in line for about 2 hours getting ready to check out. It made us chuckle. Tracy had to snap a photo of the animal crackers because this was toward the end of the line and we had to stand in front of the snack aisle. We saw these two buckets of crackers just sitting there with a sign that said buy one get one free so, we had to get them. We then dove into them in the car because we were a little on the hungry side and had to refuel for more hours of shopping. Good times!!
