The Morning After

The morning after Thanksgiving...it's normally something I avoid due to the insanity that is Black Friday. But, because of a desperate need for a quality purse that won't empty the bank account, I went. My mom, Michaela, and I all headed out to Macys at 6:00am and braved the crowds. To be honest, it wasn't that bad. Other than the absurd line in Old Navy, it felt like any other day at the mall. Which was definitely a nice surprise. Also, the sunrise that accompanied us on the drive to the mall was GORGEOUS. I haven't seen a sunrise in years and I loved it. 

After over three hours of shopping, I went to "Sports Day." It is a new Gennaro family tradition where we play as many sports as we can think of/have the energy for. Although I wouldn't say I'm the most athletically gifted person God's ever created, it was really fun. And, as every holiday is with that family, hilarious. 

Then I got to come home and take a nap. It was glorious. Like the sunrise, I can't even remember the last time I took a legit nap but today was the day. After that, we went to Mommars and Papa's house for Thanksgiving. Delicious. Dinner was followed by saying what we're thankful for, a little football, and then re-watching their recording of Family Feud. Awesome. 

Today was a good day. One of those days where you're just happy to be alive and everything seems to be going well. A day full of blessings from the Lord.
