Saturday 11/27 shopping:)

Since 3 of my guys ended up with strep, I didn't have the chance to do any Black Friday shopping.  I did end up being able to slip out for a little while on Saturday and see what was left from CVS, Rite Aid and Walgreens since they did 3 day Black Friday sales.  Plus I knew I had to at least go to Rite Aid since my Up Rewards were expiring that day.  Here is what I bought:

Walgreens Instant Win game

I hope everyone is still playing the Walgreens Stay Jolly Instant Win game.  You can play once a day until December 12, 2010.  I know you are probably saying why bother, I never win anything anyway?  I was saying the same thing but still played because well you never know.  Well, on Thanksgiving morning, I was going about my morning computer routine and checking all the websites I visit in the morning and played the Walgreens Stay Jolly Instant Win game and oh my I won a $25 Walgreens giftcard.  I couldn't believe it- I actually won and got the email stating my giftcard should arrive in 3-4 weeks- YEA!!!!  So, keep playing because you never know- next you could be the winner:)

We hope...

That everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  We made it safely to Maryland and had a very blessed Thanksgiving. 

Michael and I had fun creating the styrofoam turkey to take with us so that everyone could write what they were thankful for on the feathers.  Everyone loved the idea and as you can see we had a blessed and thankful turkey.  Thanks to The Homespun Heart for the wonderful Thanksgiving craft ideas- they were a big hit:)

Unfortunately on Friday, Nathan woke up with a horrible rash on his face and Michael and Chris were not feeling so well.  So off to the doctor they went only to discover that all three of them had strep.  So, because I have a sick family to tend to, there will not be any store deals this week :(  

Happy Thanksgiving:)

We would love to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours:)  Enjoy this day as we give thanks for all the Lord has blessed us with and being able to share this day with family and friends.  For those who are traveling, please be safe in your travels.  We will be leaving shortly for your trip up to Maryland to spend this beautiful day with family.
