Thanksgiving...one BUSY week!!

Last weekend we celebrated John's 6th birthday!!!
Hanging out in swimsuits the week of Thanksgiving....that's Arizona!!


Special potato flour cupcakes just for him!

Presents included hundreds of Legos, Magnet gears, Cartoons, Telescope, K'Nex, Coloring books, Dollars from the Great Grandmas! If that wasn't enough, we took John to Toys R Us to pick out a toy. He was WAY overstimulated with all the blessings. He almost fainted in the store and we had to carry him out. We picked a Spongebob WII game for him.


Thanksgiving came so soon. We celebrated with over 40 people around noon at Brian and Scottee's. Drove the quads, played volleyball, cousins had a blast!!


After hanging out with all of Adam's side, we went over to my Mom's for dinner. (Sorry, no photos...) We crashed on the couch after dinner, watching the Cardinals get slaughtered and reading the black Friday ads.
Of course, I had to go out on black Friday with my mom!! This is me at 5:15am...ready for the deals! Good time, Mom!!!


That night, Rich and Treslee's wedding dinner came...complete with singing and a delicious dinner from Famous Dave's!!





Saturday was the wedding (I'll get photos soon!). I managed to hobble pretty good on my sore toe all week. I also got a bit of bronchitis.
Did I mention I had finals for school on Wednesday too?


Here's a photo of darling baby Sam! Allison has been sick this week, but she's been doing a good job mommying while everyone is running around like crazy!

We were out at 4:30 a.m. on Black Friday. Good to see I'm not the only crazy one. Surprised we didn't run into one another. Next year we need to coordinate our schedules so we can tag team.

I guess this is why you forgot our VT appt! Serves me right for waiting until the last week of the month and a holiday week. I'll try to do better this month but just in case, block out a half hour on the 31st for me!

I just love being a part of the Barry family.

I really like that picture of you at 5 a.m. by the way.
