thanksgiving

these are all out of order, but who cares right?

the story goes:

Thursday: cook, then eat with friends at

Brian and Odette's house

Friday: make breakfast burritos at home

then go cut down a christmas tree with peeps

a christmas tree extravaganza shot

after you pay, you pick the liquor, and take a shot

weird i know, but they don't call it a "warmer" for nothing.

the first place we went to chop our tree down had an alpaca farm as well as the 1/2 dead trees. they were really sad looking, and none of us are avid green thumbs, and we didn't think our trees would last til christmas, so we went to a place in Evergreen... perfect name right?

on thursday

cam and sara with wheat thins

*that night cam got as sick as i have ever seen him before, it was awful, hence he's not in any christmas tree photos... but he finally was able to eat some food friday night. then saturday he felt a little better, and he is still feeling crummy, but better. so let's hope he's all better before surgery 12/8/08 to get his plate out!!!
