Black Friday

I am finally recovered enough from not going to bed to get my Black Friday deals in. I stayed up (knowing myself, if I went to sleep I would not let a little thing like an alarm force me out of bed) and went to the Mall, which opened at 1AM. I did not really need anything at the mall, but thought it would give me something to do while waiting for the stores I wanted to visit to open. I then went to AC Moore to get in line for a Thomas the Train wooden train set, according to the ad it retails for 179.99 and I got it for 49.99 (thank you Grandma Dee). Then I came home to catch a couple hours of sleep while waiting for the kids to wake up, so I could take them with me for the rest as Shannon had to work. I rounded out the day heading back to the mall to hit the anchor stores that did not open until 5, Michaels and Walmart. I was so excited Walmart advertising they would price match only to get there and be disappointed they did not have the things I was looking for (DVDs). I went to Lowes today to get a few more things, including a poinsettia centerpiece for my table and a live wreath for the front door. I am tired and will be recovering the next couple days, but I am glad to have a decent start to my shopping. I love this season!

Family Night.

Sophia had her first onstage debut. It was GREAT. Except for the video I took, it turned out badly. But it is posted in my dropshots account, the link is to the right.
