My week started out with a flurry of activity. My Mom said she needed to get ready for something called Thanksgiving. But, apparently, in order to do that, she needed to get ready for the Christmas holiday.
Last Saturday, Mom and Dad spent a lot of time bringing out new decorations for the house. I was really confused by all of the activity. I was really tired. So, I just laid down and watched the NASCAR race (Mommy's favorite driver, Dale Jr., didn't win).

All of the excitement made me really tired.

Later in the week, Mommy and Daddy told me that I would be meeting some new people. They didn't tell me that it would be Grandma and Grandpa - and Jackson Hareing's Mommy and Daddy. I was so excited. Grandma and Grandpa are so nice. They liked to play and cuddle with me (even after I took a bite out of Grandpa's toes).
My aunt Kristin and Mommy went shopping for a long time on Friday. I guess it is tradition, but I really don't understand what "Black Friday" is all about. It seems a little crazy to me. I got to stay home with my Grandpa, my Uncle Eugene and my Daddy. We watched football (and I was able to catch-up on my sleep). Grandpa says I can come visit him at his house. I can't wait! And, I hear Jackson my be coming too!
