The Blackham Family: Thanksgiving Weekend

This Thanksgiving Colton and I spent it at my grandparents. My Grandparents have a pit they always cook their turkey in along with many friends and family in town. We pulled all the turkeys out, opened the lids to check them, and they weren't done! They said this had only happened once before in the many years that they have been doing this. So, we told everyone to put their turkeys in their oven to finish cooking them. It only took about 2 more hours so it allowed time for us to get everything else ready for the turkey dinner. We had so much yummy food! My Mom came for the turkey dinner and brought her friend. I had a great time spending it with her and my grandparents. But, then we headed to Donelle's house for some Black Friday shopping! We went out at 8 pm and let me tell you it took about 10 minutes to get what we needed and then stood in line for an hour in a half! I'm so glad for a patient husband that stood in line while I roamed the store trying to find more deals! =) We got him a new church shirt and some shoes and then went home for another big day of fun! Friday we went shopping for some black boots that I have really been wanting and then we went to the movies to see Frozen with Donelle and her kids. It was such a cute show! We don't go to the movies much so it was fun and it was during the day so I figured Colton had really good chances of staying awake! I just have to say I have a very caring and loving husband and I love that about him. When Donelle and I would run to the store, Colton would stay home with all the kids and when we got home I found him playing basketball with the boys and pushing the girls outside on the swings. He is so patient and I love that he loves to do things with her kids. He is such a good example and I know that he will be a great father someday!
