A Few Firsts

Cecilia got to experience a few firsts this weekend.



The first one of course being Thanksgiving.


Like last year, my parents had us over for lunch and later that day my whole family came over for desserts and to socialize.


We had a wonderful, relaxing time and Cecilia got to experience a house full of her closest relatives. She didn't know what do to with all those people!





My brother, Mayo, was in town and he got to spend some quality time with his favorite niece!


She was a little unsure of him at first but it didn't take her long to warm up and put on the charm.





Since I had to work the next morning and my parents were keeping Cecilia, we decided that her and I would just have a sleep over at Momoi and Pap's house. To our surprise we woke up to this...




SNOW!!! I can't believe it has already snowed here! The even crazier thing is we had ground covering snow in Bowling Green!




I'm hoping it snows at least one good time so we can let her feel it but it better be on a weekend. Y'all know I don't do snow when I have to go some where!


The third and final of Cecilia's first was Black Friday shopping! I ventured out last year with my Nanny and Mom and it wasn't too bad but still not my cup of tea. I have no idea why I was so dead set on it this year but I wanted to go again. So after I got off work, Mom, Cecilia and I headed to out to shop.

I was expecting the worst and had prepared myself for long lines and ladies throwing elbows. To my surprise, there was normal holiday traffic in town, I found a spot almost near the door, and I never waited in line! A few times we even had to find a cashier to check us out! I think I made a million comments about how nice of a day it was and how I couldn't believe there weren't that many freaks out shopping! I was floored to say the least especially since my Nanny told me about her experience waiting in line for 2 hours just to have fabric cut at a fabric store! I thought for sure if the fabric store was that crazy then the mall would be a mad house but it wasn't. I'm guessing with some of the stores opening late Thanksgiving night it helped with the traffic.
If every year will be like that I could become a Black Friday shopper!
