WeekEND, it just can't be!

I don't know about you, but this long weekend coming to an end is a bit sad. It's been so nice to be extra lazy and just relax with no work work to do. Unfortunately, Monday comes knocking tomorrow. :(

So, how'd you fare? Fabulous Thanksgiving meals (for the U.S. readers) and lots of Black Friday shopping/avoidance?

We had a beautiful drive over to the Oregon Coast where my grandparents live.


I was definitely full after our Thanksgiving meal, but not too full for a bit of pumpkin roll and pumpkin pie! Most of Thanksgiving day was occupied with entertaining my cousin's new baby or her little toddler. They are the cutest little boys.

On Friday, I stayed at my parents house and hung out with the family. We hit up some of the sales, but I shockingly didn't buy anything! Don't worry, I made up for it yesterday. Ann Taylor LOFT was having a 40% off your purchase sale. That makes a $44 sweater $26. Yes, please. Somehow, I just don't have enough sweaters for the winter.

This morning, I headed to the group run and polished off a cold 6 miles in 49:45. After grabbing a Starbucks, I raced off to see the manfriend in his cyclocross race.

Okay, I'm going to do some magazine and book reading and couch time to take advantage of the last hours of this weekend. I wish it didn't have to end! It totally feels like the holidays are officially in full swing now. Are you ready?

I saw the Ann Taylor sale, but didn't find anything I wanted at our outlets. But Banana Republic was 50% off the entire store and I got some deals in clearance!
Sounds like you had a wonderful T-giving weekend. I can't believe it's coming to an end, either. I even took an extra day off and it still went by way too fast. I want another couple of days off! ha.

I didn't do any shopping this weekend. I really need to get organized & start shopping... Christmas is going to come very fast!

Geez, you two probably burned off all the turkey and then some! I didn't do any shopping or exercising this week ;) So a little good and very bad!

Totally not into the weekend being over. I was on vacation all last week and am dreading today for sure.
Congrats Manfriend! And cutie little boys, what a fun Thanksgiving crew :)

I didn't know about that LOFT sale, ah! But, probably for the best, since I wear mostly athletic clothes for now anyway ;) ha.
