Thanksgiving 2009

For the first time in at least 5 years we decided to stay home for Thanksgiving this year. Since the decision to stay home came last minute as sadly plans fell through to go to So. Dakota to visit our friends Mark and Robyn we decided to attempt to cook dinner ourselves and spend a nice quite evening at home with Odin.

That night my mom and I decided to head to the premium outlet mall at Tulaip for their mid-night madness Black Friday sales. We both ended up getting some good deals and doing some of our Christmas shopping but mostly we had fun getting out together to shopping.

Saturday, Ben and Odin decided to head down to the the trainer for some hunting and training and brought home three Pheasant and a Chucker. My sister Tammy thought it would be "fun" to come over and help Ben clean the birds so that night after Thanksgiving dinner with my family they cleaned and prepared all the birds for the freezer.

After a busy few days we spent Sunday decorating the house for Christmas. We got all the lights on the outside of the house put up and most of the inside decorated. Now we just have to get the tree and we'll be all set for Christmas.
