So, Thanksgiving was nice and quiet. Had dinner at Paul and Rachel's. The food was good and I don't think I overate. I would love to, but it's really kinda hard to do that when you're chasing after a toddler all the time. The rest of the weekend was spent on shopping. I definitely didn't participate in the Black Friday craziness. However, I did shop at around 10 a.m., just not 5 a.m. Aside from getting clothes for Aidan, there wasn't any big purchases the whole weekend. I remember last year, i really wanted to get a laptop and there was a reason to look at Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales. This year, I just browsed ads and websites unconsciously.
We went to Hillsdale Shopping Center on Saturday and saw that they already set up the Santa photo props. There wasn't a line so I figured, why not go ahead and take a pictures? This is Aidan's first picture with Santa Claus. I was surprised that he wasn't scared at all. He actually sat still and we were able to take one good picture. The picture package was somewhat expensive and the quality wasn't THAT great. But what the heck, it's for my cutiepie.
Thanksgiving weekend was also spent on decorating my Christmas Tree. I've been debating for a very long time whether I should get a new fake tree. This tree that I had, has been with me for years and it's really not that pretty. But since I didn't want to spend too much money, we ended up using this tree for another year. Hopefully, next year I would be able to get a new one. We got new LED lights for the tree and I was glad we did. The colored lights were so much nicer than my old set of lights and Aidan liked them so much more. We've set a timer so every night from 6-9 p.m., the lights would go on automatically. Each time Aidan saw the lights, he would say "Waaa". So cute!
