AH, Thanksgiving weekend!
This Thanksgiving my family and I had planned to eat at a restaurant and then go to a movie. We didn’t want to stay home this year by ourselves and we had nowhere to go. My husband made the reservation and we thought that was that.
Then we were invited to our Pastors house for Thanksgiving. What a nice surprise that was! We happily accepted their invitation and my husband canceled the reservations.
It was nice being able to spend Thanksgiving day with my Pastor’s family, another family from our Church and of course my own family including my dad. We ate. We played some games. We had dessert. We played some more games. Then my family and I went home.
The next day, Black Friday we decided to brave the mall and we went to Crossgates. That place was packed! We didn’t do a lot of shopping ourselves, but we did do some. We actually found some great deals at Five Below of all stores. Go figure!
Oh yeah, we bought a Christmas tree too, but that’s for another blog.
On Saturday we went to a Japanese Hibachi restaurant. This was my second time going and I had just as much fun as the first time. If you’ve never been to a place like this – it’s where they cook the food in front of you and then serve you. I always get the chicken and fried rice with the rice being my favorite to eat.
After the Japanese food we went to see Fantastic Beasts. I have to say that was a great movie. Much better than I expected it to be. I highly recommend it to anyone especially Harry Potter fans.
It’s pretty safe to say my Thanksgiving weekend was busy with shopping, movies, good food and great company.
