Thanksgiving for the new couch

Well happy Thanksgiving everyone! We celebrated by going to Utah! It was not as cold or snowy as we thought it would be, but it was still way colder than Texas! (It was 85 when we left, and by turning off the AC we got to save on utilities!) (it is alot cooler now down here.) Anyways, Thanksgiving in Utah was a lot of fun, we got to see family and eat lots of good food and do some black Friday shopping! The Black Friday shopping was a new experience for me (Reece) but not for Caity. The line outside Best Buy was way too long for us when we went at midnight, so we went back the next day and got all the deals we wanted anyways. I guess people really want a good deal on an off brand TV! Although maybe if we could have fit it on the plane it would have been more enticing. We loved seeing family, we are just so far from everyone down here we take all the family time we can get! Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa for the fun trip! We love you guys! Anyways, Thanksgiving was great, and when we got home we decided to have our own little thanksgiving dinner today. We got stuffing, sweet potatoes, and a turkey. Yum yum. The turkey we got was a smoked turkey breast, so it was full of yummy smokey flavor, so we figured it was a more Texas style turkey. It was really good. This is a picture of our dinner, apparently we forgot to take any pictures while in Utah. hmmm. oops.

And our most exciting news, we got a new couch! We have been wanting one for quite a while now, and we found a good deal before we left for Thanksgiving and jumped on it! So, here is our old couch. It came from my sisters apartment, and before that my parents place in ML, where it had been for 20+ years. Why did you get rid of a couch with such history you may ask? Let me show you:

Did you notice the sweet floral print and the rips in both arms? Not to mention the faded appearance....and the cushions that are losing their shape, etc. If you want to come visit, you are welcome to sleep on it! We still actually have it, it has become designated as the eating couch, or the one where I am allowed to eat my popcorn! Anyways, here is our new couch!

Notice the attractive young woman that came with the couch! Lucky me! :)
