I sat around my house today trying to figure out a way to get to use my new lens. I finally decided that I needed to have a Canon 50mm f1.4 instead of my cheap f1.8 lens. So today I bugged Zelda a little around the house and was able to get some fun nice shots of her that show the beautiful depth of field this lens gives.
Well since I wasn’t able to actually have turkey on Thanksgiving, my mom decided to make one for our Sunday family dinner. I even got to have all the favorite sides to go along with it. So it was basically like having two Thanksgivings in one week for me.

As most know I am a huge high school football fan being from Texas. Its actually a bigger deal to me than NCAA or NFL. So when my hometown has a team heading off to the playoffs I decided I had to go with my family and see the game. I decided that sitting in the stands was not going to be fun, so I stood on the sidelines and got to see the game up close. It was a great game and the Cardinals won to go on to the next round of the playoffs.

I decided not to be one of the crazy people that camps out but I did go by early to see all the people that were out there waiting for the great deals. Its crazy to think how many people will spend a week out in front of a store just to save a few dollars on some things. I’ve been one of them for a few years and now I just plan my shopping a little better.
It was that time of the year when everyone thinks of all the things they’re thankful for and spend time with their families. Then there are those people that camp out for hours so that they can get awesome deals at the stores on Black Friday. I decided to spend time with my mom and her family instead of hanging out in front of a store.
