Thanksgiving Weekend Recap!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving weekend...I know that we did and ate WAY TOO MUCH!  We were packed full of things going on and it was a blast!

Wednesday after getting off of work early, we went to meet my BIL and SIL and our precious nephews at Hooters for some dinner.  We played some trivia-Are you smarter than a Hooters girl?-and the answer to that is yes we are but we still didn't win, but had a lot of fun anyways!  While we were hanging out, we ran into our friends Burton and Angela and decided to hang around a bit longer with them after the in laws left.  We ended up staying for a while just talking and hanging out-so much fun when you have those little impromptu gatherings...they're the best!

Thursday I truly believe that I gained 45lbs, easily! We started out the day by watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade-a tradition I grew up with but def not the hubs favorite part of the day-he gets bored a little easier than most! :)  Then we went to his Aunt Anne's house for our first round of yumminess.  We then made our way over to my parents house for the second round of "Let's get fat and eat everything even though we are already full!"  We then followed up our full tummies with some pretty intense games of Wii bowling and golf...for the record my mom rocks at some Wii bowling, however it wasn't the hubs brightest moment! I love you anyways babe! :)

Friday was the Iron Bowl-Auburn vs Alabama-and we went to our friends Shane and Andrea's house to watch our Tigers pull out another victory (28-27) putting us back in the #1 spot int he BCS poll!  War Damn Eagle! 

Saturday we met up with these guys
 at Buffalo Wild Wings for some drinks and to watch their team, Ole Miss play.  Their game didn't end as well as ours did the day before, but we still had a great time hanging out and shutting the bar down...btw-haven't done that in a very long time! :)

Yesterday we decided to take Wrigley Man to the new Railroad Park here in Birmingham...it is awesome!  There is so much room to walk, run, ride bikes, or just lay on the grass and enjoy the beautiful weather.  I am so in love with this park and we will def be making another appearance or two there very soon!  Wrigley was of course the star of the show...he had people oohhhing and aaahhhing over him all day and wanting to pet him and he was loving every minute of it! He is still exhausted!

This past week, we were fortunate enough to get a $50 gift card to Flemings at the Summit and we decided to go last night.  Their food was so delish!  We def ate more than we should have but it was well worth every bite!  Don't get me wrong, it is expensive but they also serve larger portions of food, so I believe that you could easily eat there much more affordably than we did last night for sure by just splitting a few appetizers or side dishes!

Again, I apologize for no pictures, but that will all soon changed since the hubs was such a sport on Thursday to let me go ahead and order a new camera!  It is on it's way now and I should get it later this week and I can't wait!  The best part...we ordered it online, got the Black Friday price, and got free shipping....you can't beat that! 

Hope everyone has a wonderful week!
