Joe and I had a great time going down to San Diego to visit his side of the family. The food was great, his family is a lot of fun, and we did a bunch of shopping – even on Black Friday.

We went shopping Friday, Saturday, and Sunday both in San Diego and back home – in 3 cities on the coast. We got a bunch of great deals, used up some gift cards, got some Christmas gifts, and prepared for our Gingerbread House Making Party. Needless to say, I’ll be glad not to see the inside of a store for a while, although I need to go grocery shopping soon…
