Along Came Aubrey: Cave Thanksgiving and Time in Columbus

This has been kind of a crazy week since we only had a 3 day workweek so we completely took advantage of having four days of being around Aubrey. We had Thanksgiving in Columbus on Saturday, but decided to head back a little earlier to spend a couple days with Grandma and Papa Cave. Aubrey was a little out of sorts not sleeping in her bed, but she started getting used to sleeping in the pack and play and warmed up to being somewhere new soon enough. It was a great weekend of relaxation and family time. Uncle Joe and Aunt Kellie brought their little doggie, Cammie, back as well. Aubrey did not like it one bit, but she kind of got used to having a puppy around even though she was scared of her. Maybe it would be a good thing to have one around more often? Not sure Daddy likes that idea though.

Did I mention that I ventured out on Thanksgiving night/Black Friday to hit up all the Black Friday deals? I was only out shopping for 4 1/2 hours, but boy was it worth it. I love going every year and end up getting many Christmas presents, so I'm sure the tradition will continue next year.

It's sad that the Thanksgiving holiday is over and we have to go back to work tomorrow and start our 5 day workweek routine, but I am so excited for Christmas this year. I love the holiday every year, but it will be even more special this year with Aubrey. Let the Christmas shopping begin!
