Kath and Kim Versus Black Friday

Beauty treatments for the big day!

Our inspiration, the ultimate shoppers and fashionistas, Kim and Kath:

Our version of Kath and Kim:
Kim in all her glory.
Kath waiting for a sale!
Wal*Mart or bust!
I was stopped and given some spiritual information. Perhaps, they thought I needed some Holy intervention.
Target or bust!
Kim checked out mentally and was DONE!
Naughtiness ensues whenever we are together!

Some private time:
After our shopping adventure commenced (this was our first Black Friday! We already planned next year's outfits!) we went for food. In the the parking lot we saw Santa!!! Ahhh bet our antics got us on the "bad list!"

Thanksgiving...

We traveled out to Sun City West and had a fabulous dinner at Aunt Winnie and Uncle Lee's.
Billy, Cindy and the kids were in from Ohio.

It's nice to have a large group to celebrate with.... reminds me of the Thanksgivings growing-up. (How I miss it!)
The weather was beautiful and the food was yummy.
The kids had a ton of fun (Aunt Winnie will be finding fingerprints forever!)!



Kissing cousins (true to my heart!) :)


I am so thankful for family. I am truly blessed to be surrounded by such wonderful people.

Now break out the egg nog and call me Griswald.... Christmas here I come!












Christmas Card Pictures- YIKES!

Here are a few of the attempts at a lovely Christmas card photo. I had a vision and our card will contain 4 pictures. I will wait and blog the chosen ones after I design the card. Here are the "outtakes!"

Sleepover!

Over the weekend we opened the Gooden Bed & Breakfast to Aunt Manda and Lauren.




We really had a blast. We ate junk food, had a dance party, met Nemo Auntie's guinea pig, put on makeup, went on a Wal*Mart trip, played Sing Star, dressed-up and made prank phone calls. It was too fun. Then, Sunday morning after Lauren left for work (boo) Auntie got us up and ready, made breakfast and entertained us for 2 hours. Mom and Dad slept in (reverse B&B style)! They were so rested and excited. Auntie did awesome. What a fun weekend. We are inviting the girls again for face masks, phone calls and a photo shoot (someone has to take the Christmas card pics!)!
