Thanksgiving trip...

I started writing a big long detailed post about our trip for Thanksgiving, but I stopped because I couldn't remember some of the details. So here's the short version.

We went to WV. Oliver did great in the car except for a "poopsplosion" on the way up. Jasper did ok, but threw up twice. We had Thanksgiving with about 30 people. We ate by candlelight because the power went out just before we ate. Oliver got overwhelmed and cried for two hours the first night we were there. We spent some time with Chris (uncle hedgehog), eating and shopping and just generally hanging out. Oliver got some new outfits and I got some new pants. We got to spend a little bit of time with Birch and Gretchen when they got back on Sunday. We left Monday and when we got home pretty much just sat around the rest of the day recovering from the trip. Oliver slept most of the trip back, so did Jasper, so did I. I got a cold while we were there, luckily I didn't give it to Oliver (yet, anyway)...I'm almost over it today.

I go back to work on Sunday. I'm not excited about it. I'm only going back part time, and will only be gone when Bob is here. I still hate it. We'll see how it goes though. The Christmas party is on 12-10. I'm not sure I'll be going, but we'll see about that too. Bob doesn't want to go. I don't really want to leave Oliver to go party for 4 hours. Maybe I'll just stop by or something. We'll see. I got invited to another party on the Friday before that. Joey, a salesperson at RTG, is having a party. He and his wife had a baby (Ava)about a month before Oliver and we were comparing notes today. Oliver weighs more than Ava! They are all doing well though, and Whitney (Joey's wife) is quitting her job to stay home with the baby. Hooray for her!

I'm hoping to have some visitors for Christmas or at least in December. My mom said she was probably coming up. I'm having a superbowl party at my house whenever the superbowl is and I'm hoping to have a better turnout this year than last. Last year only 4 people were there, and two of them were me and Bob.

I guess that's all for now because the boy's waking up and I'm trying to make dinner for Bob.
