So, being broke and not having a lot of gifts to worry about, I did snag a few ads from my grandma's house on Thanksgiving.  Fortunately for me, they weren't crazy Black Friday things.  One was even specifically a Saturday thing.  So on Friday, Matt and I hung out at home, and probably watched a lot of Star Trek on Netflix (yeah, we're nerds like that :)).  Although, I did log in from home and work for a couple of hours.  I'm glad I have the option to work from home for days like that.

Finally, Saturday afternoon (we were so lazy :)), we headed out to go shopping.  We took care of a few gifts, and even went to Petco for our kids' gifts.  Yay for sales!  Roberts was also having a sale on yarn, so I got some standard colors (not as many as I'd like considering they were pretty well cleaned out), and a cute purple that I have an idea for... if I can remember yet again how to crochet....and then learn something besides single and double stitching.... like following a pattern! ha!  I have about a month for my plan though, so it's all good.

Sunday, we headed north to Pleasant Grove where Matt's cousin was reporting on his mission.  It was kind of fun because they had two returned missionaries speaking.  Austin did an amazing job, and totally made me cry lol.  Matt's family ducked out at the end to head up to Plain City to hear Jackie report on her mission.  We, however, decided to go to Sharon's for bread and muffins.  Mmm - so good!  Again, we had an enjoyable time visiting with family and playing with Nicole's babies - Ruby (chinchilla) and Lily (pug).

Mostly, for the extended weekend off of work, I enjoyed spending time with Matt.  It was very nice to have a few days of nothing to do but hang out with each other and our animals.
