On Wednesday, it’s customary for Alan to close the office down around 3pm.  On that day, I was at lunch and around 12:50 he called my cell and said to not bother coming back to the office.  It was just too slow to bother.  Of course, if I would’ve known, I would’ve ran my errands before coming home and then just not bothered going back.  I packed up Elizabeth and she helped mommy deliver papers to the court, GAL’s and county attorney’s office.  I’m not sure if anyone is sincere, but they say they love to see her and she’s so beautiful and her hair is lovely and she’s getting so big, etc.   Elizabeth just smiles and crawls all over their office.

Thanksgiving day wasn’t very eventful.  It was raining as we drove up to Glendale, which was very scenic up through Zion (waterfalls and wild animals galore).  We got to my parents house only moments before the food was ready.  We ate and everything was immediately cleared away and everyone scattered to go down for a nap.  Paul & I packed back up and headed to Orderville to visit the Walker’s.  We had a short visit and then drove home. 

Black Friday is today.  Nutshell:  We’re both very tired from the early rising to buy stuff.  We didn’t spend a fortune and we didn’t need or want very much, but the few things we got were worth it.   Elizabeth is so worn out from yesterday’s events that she has taken 2 naps and was wanting a 3rd, but we ended up just putting her to bed at 6:30.  That’s extremely early for her, but she just couldn’t manage any longer.  Paul picked her up and she just put her head on his shoulder — didn’t even wave goodnight to me and he carried her away.

Cameron had to be at work at 5am today and when i went into Target late this morning, he was scrambling around like crazy (like they all were).  He’s exhausted also.  It’s currently 8pm and I think we’re all headed to bed here shortly.
