We stayed in Rexburg for thanksgiving this year, so we headed down to Matt's Grandparents where we found some super cool old toys ( i think i had one of those horses when i was little!), Played a little Risk, Got turned upside down, And had some yummy turkey! We then scoured their record collection and found some awesome albums, In fact I am listening to the Bing Crosby Christmas Album as i type.
We then decided to head home cause there was no way we were going Black Friday shopping, besides i really had my heart set on sleeping.... But around Idaho Falls i got really hungry, so we stopped at Ihop, just to eat.... (p.s. pancakes are relevant for any meal) And we got to thinking, while munching on delicious breakfast food, It's already 8pm and the mall opens at midnight.... we might as well just stay.... So we went and watched Life of Pi, Checked out target ( we almost bought stuff but the lines were LONG! so we turned back) and then waited in our car for the mall doors to open while listening to "eye of the tiger". We walked out with a couple Christmas presents and the T-Shirt in the Top picture from the mall and then thought, well, Fred Meyer's opens at 5am.... It's already 1am.... we might as well wait.... Yeah, after about an hour i was already regretting that decision.
Little know fact about me: my dad and i always do Black Friday. and we go big, waiting in line at Fry's since around 5pm. But the difference is, we did this in Arizona. Where the LOWEST the temperature got was 50 degrees. Maybe 40. Maybe. It is a different story in Idaho! holy crap it was cold. But we made it. And made off with the holy grail of socks. i think we will be good till next Black Friday. But really. Half price name brand socks? You just can't pass that up.
So all in all not a bad Thanksgiving. Hope you have a great one!
