Thanksgiving/Black Friday

We had a great Thanksgiving this year. We spent it down in Price with Justin's two sisters and their families. There is 16 of us when we all get together so it was quite the houseful, but the weather was nice so all the kids got to play outside. Jaxon LOVES playing with his cousins, and kept asking all week when was it time to go down to play.

Then we decided to try a little Black Friday shopping. Neither Justin or I had been shopping on this crazy day, and thought maybe we should try it once. That was all it took for us to realize that we will never do that again!! Not only did we have to drag Jaxon out of bed to go with us (lack of babysitter) but I was literally getting pushed around at Target and of course they had already run out of what we wanted. We tried our hand at Toys R Us and had a little better luck, then on to Wal Mart. We got about half our shopping done, but decided that the getting up early and dealing with crowds was SO not worth it. Maybe when our kids are older and they want that hottest thing out there we MIGHT go, but even then...

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving as well!!

Adam and I tried the black Friday shopping once too, and decided once was enough for us! At least you had Justin there with you as your own personal bodyguard! :)
