Right before Lance went back to work he decided to take a ride on his brother Trace's dirt bike. I was a little worried he would come back with a broken limb, since he is accident prone, but to my surprise, he came back in one piece!! He went back to work for a few hours and I headed home to meet Chris, Jana, and Noah for our trip to Pop and Gigi's house.
We stayed up pretty late considering we were getting up for the Black Friday shopping. But we had a list of everything store we were going to , in the order they opened, and what we needed at each one. My brother in law loves Black Friday and made sure we were prepared! So we got up "late" at 3:00 and headed to Kohls. Chris and Jordan decided they weren't going to wait in the line so Jana and I got out and waiting for maybe 2 minutes and the doors opened. We knew someone in line so we got in and out of the store, with everything we needed, in 15 minutes (Sorry to the people we skipped in front of). Chris headed to Walmart while we shopped in Kohls and dropped Jordan off at Target at 4:15 to wait in line until they opened at 6!! Poor Boo Boo. Jana and I then headed to Sears and once again, was in and out within about 20 minutes. So we headed to Target to wait in line, and by that time Chris was there. Some people thought we were skipping, but we didn't, I promise. Oh and I went and got Jordan some breakfast while she was in line all by herself, so she didn't starve. It took us a little longer to get out of target, but we were out of there after about 30 minutes, with all our goodies we went for!! While Chris and I were in line to check out, Jordan and Jana went and got a table at IHOP for the real breakfast. It has become a tradition of ours on Black Friday. So after a little breakfast we headed to the mall. After one store I was literally wore out and my feet were swollen. However, I needed to finish my shopping and I was determined to do so. So my sisters and Chris thought it would be funny to get a wheelchair to push me in! So not funny, and I was embarrassed. They would take turns on who was going to push me and I did let them push me for a little while, but I got out at every store and it pretty much became our bag holder. So if you saw me, I promise I am not that lazy!! We finally made it home around 2 and I must say that over all, it was not a bad shopping day. I got ALL my shopping taken care of, with the exception of Jana!
Here are some pictures from our shopping experience. Noah also got a big boy car seat and by the pictures, I think he likes it!
Jackie's birthday is today, so we had a birthday gathering at the parent's house on Friday afternoon. So it was a fun celebration. Happy Birthday Jackie!!
Lance and I decorated our house for Christmas this weekend. I am excited to have that taken care of. Also, I cleaned out the baby's room some more so that when my dad brings her baby bed this week, we will have room to put it up. I am getting so excited!! 
Have a good week.

I am SUPER impressed with your organization and skills on Black Friday.
Jay...you do not tell people we skipped!! We were "in line"! We had fun didn't we! I can't believe that we weren't on TV! Oh I love your leaning Grinch christmas tree!
Wow!!! I must say very impressive. You would not have seen me out that day shopping (at least not that early, I waited until 2 PM and still got tired!). I'm glad you got most of your shopping done. Your Christmas tree is very pretty!
holy smokes you are a shopping PRO. man, you really deserve to win a contest or something. i mean, do you get lots of free stuff for waiting in line for 2 hours for the store to open? i just can't see myself, alone at 4:15 in the morning, waiting on Target to open! You guys need to write a Black Friday book! :)
JAIME! Time for pictures of Alli's bed! I can't wait to see it all put together! Loved hanging out with you Saturday. It was so much fun!
