It was my turn to work Labor and Delivery on Thanksgiving this year, so I wasn't able to attend a family dinner. I missed all of the family togetherness, but the hospital fed us a very nice turkey dinner while we were at work.
Robin, Ashley and Kenzie started their Black Friday shopping on Thanksgiving afternoon. I have a hard time starting my shopping on Thanksgiving and making people give up their holiday just for shoppers so after work I drove to our motel and took a nap. The girls came back to the motel, dropped off a load of shopping bags, and picked me up to start my shopping at about midnight.

We found massage chairs that helped to rejuvenate us! |

We filled two vehicles completely! Crazy! |
Before we checked out of the motel, we decided to go for a refreshing swim in the pool. Suddenly we decided to show off our "skills" and perform a synchronized swimming routine. True - none of us has ever done any synchronized swimming previously, but that didn't stop us from performing a marvelous show!
We had such a great time, and accomplished all of our Christmas shopping.
