Shopping...

Today was black Friday - probably the biggest shopping day of the year. I tend to despise shopping actually, but when it's a family outting, you go along with the flow to maximize on quality family time. :) That's my encouragement advice for the day... make sure to keep family time a priority, even if it means doing things that aren't particularly your favorite activities. It was worth it! I think my favorite thing was supper at Red Robin - I had the blueberry pomegranate limeade and the Chicken teryaki burger... whoa baby, that was good! :) "Unfortunately," I have learned that some of what I ate was not exactly the best for me, especially eatting it at supper time, but hey, what's good eatting habits without some all out "vacationing" every now and then! Ha, and tomorrow night will be another big one - the annual De Jong Thanksgiving outting - pizza ranch buffet + bowling, woohoo! I wonder if I'll be able to beat my grandparents again this year. Last year it happened once!! And believe me, that's a rarity... yeah, they're in their 70s, but... they also used to be in a bowling league, and they've got skills, I tell ya! :)
Okay, sleepy time!!... after I finish reading my Revelation devotionals. Ah, reading through the Bible this past year has been so encouraging. I hope I can keep memorizing more of it too... I need someone to keep me accountable to this goal!!!!! I'll work on finding a partner ASAP! :)
