The after Thanksgiving check in

Hey everyone,
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving, I know I did. I was so good on Thanksgiving. I ate a little but of "bad" stuff and didn't even have pie. I actually lost .4 the next day. Friday we ate pizza and ice cream, Sat. I ate a burger and some chips, and Sunday I ate that darn leftover pumpkin pie:( Anyways I wasn't willing to weigh in today to see how my oops's affected me. I will give it a few days back on track and then weigh in. I wasn't upset because I did so good the rest of last week and will continue being good again today. What would a holiday be if all I ate was salad?
We had such a great weekend with family and friends. We had 40 people at our house for Thanksgiving complete with 4 turkeys and all the sides you can imagine. It is always fun to pass out the side and see how each persons stuff is different then the way you might have done it.
Sat. we went and watched some family and friends play football in the park. The kids iceblocked and we had a bbq to finish it all off. My sister in law is a certified hoopnitic instuctor. Basically this means that she is awesome at hula hooping and can do tricks and the whole shebang. She came to the park with about 40 hoops and gave us all a lesson. It wasn't pretty but it was fun and the boys loved it. We ended up buying 2 hoops so that we can continue hooping at home.
Our house is decorated, the tree is up, the outside lights are done, and we are ready for Christmas. We have our normal traditions of going to see the lights in a highly light neighborhood, we bake cookies, shop, gift exchange, watch a million movies, and more. This year we are going to add going to the mission inn in Riverside California to our list. They light the whole place up and there are singers and everything. What is your favorite Christmas tradition? I still want to add more.
Well I hope you all had a great hoilday and I can't wait for the next month of festivites.
Ali
