well, thanksgiving is over and now time for christmas. we bought mom a artificial christmas tree today, it is too much for her to get down and water it and mess with the lights ext. this is a pre lighted . she was mad when we walked through the door with it but quickly showed how much she loved it and not having to mess with anything. i had to work yesterday and today but tommorro, i will be able to go out to dinner with everyone will take some more pictures. i left the camara with nora yesterday so i was able to get these pictures. black friday started at midnight here in lewis. i was coming home around then and there was at least 1 mile back up and quadruple amount of traffic on another quiet road. they opened all the outlets at 12 but it didn't slow me down any. it was all on the other side of the road. crazy people. hope you all enjoyed your thanksgiving. stay healthy or get healthy. katie 11 23 07
