Thanksgiving & Black Friday

Thanksgiving is the best! I love spending time with my family and eating good food. It is possibly the best combination ever. This year we ate Thanksgiving dinner with my family, which was delicious and then we went to the Rich's parents and hung out with them and watched the Cowboys beat the Raiders, which made Thanksgiving that much more fabulous! My dad gave us his tickets to the Jazz game that night. It was so good to see that Jazz win for once! We also got to put of all of our Christmas stuff including our tree, which is one of the reasons I love thanksgiving, because it is officially the first day of the Christmas season. It was my best Thanksgiving ever so far. I love being married and getting to spend all my holidays with Rich. I am SO thankful for him:)



Rich and I did Black Friday for the first time EVER this year...it was insane. I could not believe that people would wait in the cold outside a store for HOURS just to get one item. Thankfully Rich and I bought the TV we wanted a week before at Best Buy's pre-sale. We had a list of things that we wanted to get, prioritized our list and made a game plan. Kohls-3:45 Best Buy-4:30 Target-5:15 Walmart-5:45 and Kmart-6:15. Everything was going perfectly as planned until we got to Walmart. OMG. It was the craziest thing I had ever seen. The lines were pretty much all the way to the back of the store, so we left and decided to go to Kmart, where there were hardly any lines. We got what we needed and Rich went back to Walmart later and got everything we wanted there. We got lucky. It was awesome. We ended up spending $360.00 and saved $375.00. I can't wait for next year. It was fun! We ended up getting 2 entry way Christmas trees, a monitor for our computer, a drill, a sewing machine, a picture frame, an office chair, a knife set, and an external hard drive. We scored.
