Matt Hates Shopping...

Here is our shopping day video!

Doesn't he just look thrilled to go shopping?!!! I just love my hub!

More Please!


Hubba, hubba, hubba! Here is my handsome stud on round two of our Thanksgiving feast!

SHOPPING!!!

OH MY GOSH! Let me just tell you how happy I was yesterday!

Okay, so I've never, not to my knowledge or remembrance, ever gone shopping at the crack the day after Thanksgiving. :) Never. Well, this year, I wanted to. My husband actually agreed to go with me too. How totally crazy is that? No, he didn't even have alterior motives...nothing. Just awesomeness and the total coolness of being the best husband ever! :) It's true.

So, he set the alarm for the morning and then proceeded to hit "snooze". Well, he actually didn't hit snooze. He hit that one button that you never want to hit when you have somehwere important to go to. We didn't get up early and I was a little bummed, but totally cool with it. We strolled out of bed about 9am and then got ready to take the ferry into the city! We went to Bellevue Square to go shopping! YES!!! We don't really have a real mall here in Bremerton. It contains like, only...2-3 stores that I enjoy...and I can't even call it a mall. I've only been there a total of 3 times since we've lived here. So anyway....we went to Bellevue Square because they are one of two places in the whole area that has a Crate & Barrel. We have had two gift cards since we got married and have never used them! So, yesterday, it was our mission to spend those two gift cards. :) We did!

We got to walk all over the mall. We went in and out of stores looking at everything! I had so much fun! I must say that the only money we spent was on lunch at PF Changs, Seattle's Best (for a latte for me) and a couple bucks to cover the rest of our Crate & Barrel purchase!

What did we get?!?? We got three mixing bowls. They are AWESOME! We haven't had any until now so this was a really exciting purchase! :) It really is! I broke them in this morning when I made pancakes and eggs. :)

Anyway.....that was my day yesterday. Matt never complained. I was truly amazed! He really didn't. Well, he did say in our last store that his feet hurt. Which, normally he is telling me that his feet hurt before we even get out of the car when we go to Costco or Target. So, I'm really proud of him. He really did well! :)

We'll have to post a picture or two from the day later on! Have a fantastic weekend!

Did you go shopping?...And what did you get?

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

I can't believe the day is already here again! I love this time of year! It is my FAVORITE!!! I wish I could just freeze and repeat now until Christmas and the New Year!!

We just returned from visiting our home in Arizona. We stayed for a week and I almost didn't come back! We got to see everyone we love so dearly! Our week was full of so many things...I really don't think we actually, really rested. But...I guess that is how some vacations go. :) We took lots of pictures and if I can convince my darling husband to help me with it...we will have them on our photo page.

While we were home I injred my back. Never before have I hurt myself like this. It seriously felt like my nerve was being sliced. It's crazy how much you feel....the muscles, nerves....crazy pain! I wasn't even doing anything out of the ordinary...just bent over and stood up.

Anyway...today we are going over to my grandma and grandpa's house....my aunt and uncle will be there as well. I'm glad we have family here to spend this holiday with.

Happy Holidays!!!
