I hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving and had lots of yummy food to prove it! Our Thanksgiving was a little busy, we went to see the movie “A Chrstimas Carol” in 3D with my Mom and that side of the family and for dinner we went over to my Dad’s as they scurried to prepare dinner after their arrivial from Las Vegas at 1:00pm. I think a little chaos always makes things fun and spices it up a bit. Dinner was just as warm and cozy as it usually is on Thanksgiving and enjoying eachothers company in the meantime. Speaking of A Christmas Carol, if you have not seen it yet, I strongly recommend you see it! Jim Carrey plays Scrooge and all the voices of the Ghosts. Seeing the movie in 3D was even better, truly made the movie come alive and feel all the more magical. I loved it and cant wait for it to come out on DVD.

Usually the day after Thanksgiving Jeff and I will get up bright and early and make rounds in the Clackamas area by the mall but this year we didnt really feel up to it and the deals werent anything special really. I saw that Target had a $3 toaster but who the heck needs a toaster? I guess at that price you could get a few and make toast double time? Later on Friday we did go out to a few stores and poke around to see what was left, it was much nicer because the crowds had filed out and you didnt have to wait in crazy lines.

Friday night we enjoyed the tree lighting ceremony in downtown Portland. I wrote a post of fun facts about tree that you can read {HERE}.

Here are a few pictures of our weekend….
