SURPRISE!

Last night we had a surprise birthday party for my mother-in-law, which turned out great! She was completly shocked and even shed a few tears! Yeah, mission completed, we did it Kar. I love when a plan comes together, especially when it's been in the works for 3 months! 50 people came and not one person leaked anything. We had it at the Italian American Community Center and we hired the same DJ Kari had at her reception. My MIL was up dancing for almost every song, what a blast!

Thanksgiving was good. My family came over here and I cooked my first turkey...hahaha...how was I supposed to know that there are two holes in the turkey that they put things in! So after cooking for two hours my mom says you cleaned out both holes real good right? "BOTH holes...what are you talking about"? OMG!! Mike and I pulled the very hot turkey out of the oven and try to lift the stupid thing in a way that it won't burn anyone or fall on the floor and I dug the bag of crap out of the front. Thank goodness the plastic bag it was in didn't melt...not so sure everyone likes plastic on their turkey. Other than that little mishap everything went pretty smooth.

I have started Christmas shopping and can't wait till I just have it done. I don't mind doing it, I just like to have everything done. Hopefuly we will put up our tree soon, maybe next week sometime. Cole and Ryleigh went and saw Santa and were really good about it. They even told him what they want....they usually just hide their heads and act shy. I think Cole is at the age where he really believes in Santa, it's so much more fun now!

Happy shopping everyone!
