Giving Thanks (Very Late)

I had the most enjoyable Thanksgiving break! It consisted of a lot of different things and people that I love. So sad to see it end. Here is what it was:

Before I left, we had a Hatley feast! All the girls in our dorm met in the lobby and shared a meal together provided by our RA's and RD. It was very yummy and fun!

Wednesday: We went to Springfield to have a Thanksgiving with my grandparents! We had a fun time there fishing (trying), making s'mores, seeing family we haven't seen in awhile, and just enjoying each other's company. We also enjoyed a scary ride home during the thunderstorm!

Thursday: We woke up early and Nick and I ran a 5k held by the Y! It was my first and my worst. Haha. It was a good experience, though, and I'm sure it won't be my last. We then had a Thanksgiving dinner that night at my house! It was delicious, of course, and I truly enjoy being with my family. Those are the moments I cherish. After dinner we all headed to bed pretty early to enjoy some crazy shopping the next morning!

Friday: At midnight, Nick and I decided to hit up Wal-Mart just for the heck of it. I'm not sure why we made that decision because it was absolutely ridiculous! It was definitely entertaining though. After that, we slept for a little bit then went back to Target, Old Navy, and JcPenney at 4! All of that to come out with nothing! haha. We missed the deals that we wanted, but we enjoyed watching a lady at Target screaming at the workers. People are crazy these days.

Saturday: so much fun! I made my way to Bartlesville and got a much needed pedicure with Nick's mom, Jody. I enjoyed getting to know her better. We then hung out for a little bit before heading to a wedding of some of their friends. It was a fun night of dancing (yes, Nazarenes!) and eating! I love hanging out with the Williams' and getting to know them better.

I love my family and friends and am so thankful for them all! This week was wonderful and I am sad that it had to end. Just looking forward to Christmas break now :) Now it's almost here since it took me so long to post!
