I spent the morning clipping a million coupons. I'm trying to be more frugal. I'm also going to give Aldi's a shot today. I came across their ad while I was busy rounding up all my coupons... I'd be stupid not to buy my produce there! My Grandma shops there and she absolutely loves it.
I am making Thanksgiving dinner for Trey's family next week. I am excited to have them over here. I figured I would give his parent's a holiday off. They're always putting together huge meals and big parties for the family - so I thought it'd be nice if they could put their feet up on Thanksgiving and I will do all the work. The only thing I am nervous about is the turkey.... I've never prepared a turkey. I guess there is a first time for everything.... Wish me luck!
My grandma taught me how to crochet over the weekend. I think I have been working on my chain stitching nonstop ever since. I'm getting a lot better at it! Presley wants me to make a blanket for her baby dolls. I guess that's probably a good beginner project.
While Grandma and I were crocheting this weekend I told her that I wanted to look for DVD versions of the movies we ALWAYS watched when we went to Grandma's house. "Stone Pillow" and "The Electric Grandmother." So we did a little searching online and we were able to order both of them! I thought it'd be cool to round up all of my siblings and have them come to Grandma's and we can watch the movies together like we used to do when we were little! I know Courtney will be down for the idea... but the boys... not so much. I know it would mean a lot to Grandma if we all got together and did that with her.
I got to babysit Kassie and Blake's 4 month old sweet baby yesterday. Gabe sure got jealous when I would hold him, though. Having a baby here and watching Presley and Gabe play with him gave me serious baby fever! Trey and I have discussed having another one next year. I think we might need to seriously consider it....
Well, as much as I'd love to sit on the couch for the rest of the day - I should probably get my kids up from their naps so we can go run our errands.
