We had a fantastic time back in Texas for the Thanksgiving holiday. Unfortunately it wasn't long enough, but the short time we had was fun and we were happy to see everyone we got to see and just enjoy home for a bit.
We managed to see several of our families while we were there and even have dinner with some friends as well!
We got to visit the Marriott, where we got married and have breakfast in the very room we had our reception in. It was the first time we'd been back since our wedding day. So that was nice to kind of "remember" the evening.
And the Christmas lights were all up in The Woodlands. We took a walk after having some awesome sushi at Uni's and checked out the ice skaters at the ice rink they put up each year in The Woodlands.
I also got to see New Moon while I was there, and I bared Best Buy on black Friday..........but waited until around 11:00am to go! ;) It wasn't to bad, but still pretty crazy.
For all of those that we got to see............we were so happy to get to see you all and you were a cure for a little homesickness we were having. For those of you that we didn't get to see...........we are so sorry and hope that next time we visit we'll get to visit a little longer and see you all then. Just not enough hours in the day when you are home for such a short period of time.
So we are back in Scotland............trying to get over jet lag. It's hard when it gets so dark so early in the day, but we are hoping we are over it today.
And we are excited to get a Christmas tree and get that set up this week. We brought back some Christmas presents from family and plan to put them under the tree. But we got a Wii and well..............we don't exactly plan to put that under the tree. Wii Sports is pretty fun! LOL
Oh and when we left Houston on Sunday it was in the 70's and when we got back to Scotland on Monday, around 10:30am, it was 36 degrees!!!! And we woke up to ice on the ground yesterday morning. Talk about drastic change in weather!
So as soon as we get the tree up and get the house ready for Christmas, I'll snap a few pictures and post them.
Oh and just for the record............for those inquiring minds...............you bet I brought back some cans of pumpkin! ;)
