****************************************************************
We had a delicious dinner at my parents with Mommom & Poppop Moore. Just think, 2 months ago, I went to say "goodbye" to Poppop Moore!!! everyone was in good,fun, relaxed spirits. The food was delicious. We (The J's) made and wore Pilgrim and Indian hats. Jaylee & Jenni had their first wishbone contest, though it was too slippery and they finally gave it to Meg & Mandy to break. We all played Wii. We shared what we were thankful for... was kind of funny b/c Jenni went first and said "I'm thankful for my cousin Morgan. WAIT... no I'm not... I'm thankful for my cousin Adurey"!!!!!
We ended up back at my parents house Friday for a repeat Thanksgiving dinner and the girls ended up there again tonight for round 3!!!!!!
After Thanksgiving naps, Mandy, Meg & I met at the Mall at 4am for some shopping. We had fun eventhough none of us bought much. We all started our shopping early this year. It's a fun tradition to go out though!!!
