~The Davis Fairytale~: Thanksgiving Vacation ~ Gobble, Gobble!

What a BUSY, BUSY week it was for Cliff and I who both enjoyed 9 days of vacation and each other. Each day was fun-filled for the two of us.

Cliff and I found a gun range near us in Justin that we visited last weekend. Quite exciting.. Cliff wanted to go and site in his 30-06 for his hunting adventure on Wednesday. Anyhow while there Cliff let me shoot both the 30-06 and the 308. It was the coolest feeling shooting something so powerful! Cliff was quite impressed too!

Sunday we visited Cliff's parents to show them our new car and for the fact Cliff hadn't seen the 'rents in quite some time. Hamburger lunch, the Cowboys won and good family time!

The beginning of the week Cliff and I kept moving non-stop. Cliff met my OB/GYN for the first time. Had the annual so dragged Cliff along. We then met my mom for lunch at the wonderful San Miguel's in McKinney. Then off to Solitaire's in Plano to have my jewelry appraised. Tuesday I stayed home and decorated the house very Christmasy and Cliff went hunting with a work buddy. Cliff and Meat didn't see a thing, but more than anything gave Cliff an idea of the lease that he hopes to get on in April. Plus its a steal to get on a lease near by for $1500. Wednesday I cleaned my car really good to take to my dad to sale. Also the Thanksgiving cooking began and Cliff decorated the outside of the house.

Turkey day!!! Yum, yum! Of course Cliff and I both ate way too much. But everything you can imagine was there... Turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce from scratch, creamed corn casserole, armadillo eggs, deviled eggs, rolls, etc.. And not to leave out pecan pie, pumpkin pie and apple pie!!! And to end the day... THE COWBOYS WON and my man Jason Witten was playing some ball!!!

Friday was shopping!! And taking Cowboy, my moms inherited puppy, to the vet. He got bit 4 times by a BIG black lab that her neighbor was babysitting. The lab jumped the fence and hurt my little Cowboy. He is doing fine and recovering well. That evening Cliff and I headed over to Texas Stadium for the Denison High School playoff football game. It was cold, but it gave us the opportunity to see Texas Stadium one last time too. Denison didn't win in the end, but it was a good time.

Cliff and I spend the rest of the weekend vegging out and resting. I ended up with an upper respitory infection and felt kind of puny.. But the rest helped... We ended by putting together a gingerbread house.. Got a little creative in doing so; however, we both discovered one of our hidden talents is not cake decorating or gingerbread creations.

Hope everyone had a Wonderful Turkey day and know that Cliff and I are very thankful for each of you being a part of our lives!!!
