One of the things that I consider a real special treat/requirement when visiting Michigan is a trip to “Bronner’s”. This year, I was able to add several new pieces including a house to my snow village. I can’t wait to get home to add these pieces to the ones that I already have in place.
Matt choice one store to visit on Black Friday- it was a local sporting store called “Dunhams”. He purchased 3 Michigan State t-shirts and a pair of work boots for $48!
I am planning on adding a second tree to the house this year and decided it will be a “Disney” themed tree. I have slowly been collecting Disney ornaments over the years and purchased several new items including a tree topper today at the Disney Store outlet. If time permits, I am also going to check on line for any other awesome deals.
Zach is growing again, this time all his shirts are too short. I have purchased a couple of new shirts for him and a sweater to wear at Christmas, but am planning to switch out all his 4T shirt for the new 5T ones that I have been collecting over the past couple of months.
I have spent the most time ever shopping for clothes for myself this trip. I am excited to be able to purchase things several sizes smaller but also a little afraid that if I am not careful I will quickly outgrow these items. I guess this is motivation for me to keep working out on a regular basis.
This is what we did to celebrate the Super Bowl on Sunday. The kids were so excited to get to eat off the table. Kendall’s plate consisted of 1 chicken wing, which was too hot, one bacon wrapped cocktail wiener, a brownie and 4 peanut butter cookies. Zach really liked the bacon wrapped cocktail wieners, I think he ate around 20 of them total. At one time he had 5 in his hand. The kids did watch the half time show but the rest of the night was spent in the playroom with play dough.
