Pre Black Friday - Black Friday

Our usual activity on Thanksgiving afternoon is to finish up the Christmas lists, look through all the ads and make our lists for that night and the next day!  This year was a little different as we 3 girls sat with our computers on the table, looked through the ads and did ONLINE SHOPPING!!!

There was no way any of us were going out that night as it was a sheet of ice out there and darn cold!!  So some naps were taken and pie was eaten and we poured over the ads!!

And the kids?  Kenzie was lost without Aleah so spent a lot of time on the IPAD.

 The boys also were on their electronics and had a fun day playing together.

 And Gwyn was her usual cute self all day long and made us smile!

 The guys watched football most of the afternoon and we were glued to our computers and lists all afternoon!

It seemed a little strange not to be going out shopping that night but I always did think the stores should NOT be open on Thanksgiving night.

We made plans to head out in the morning but Evan's eye was swollen shut and he wasn't feeling good at all.  So Jessi headed to Urgent Care with him while Jaime and I headed to the mall on some icy roads!!  I didn't really have much left to shop for but Jaime needed to go to the Disney Store and that's always fun!!

Jessi got some medication for Evan and we all knew that it would help him!!  Jaime and I picked up Jessi and we headed back out to do some more shopping!  We just went to a few stores, had a great lunch at 5 Guys and then called it a day!!  Jaime was feeling pretty tough with a bad cold coming on so she headed to bed for a while.

Not our typical Black Friday day - but I sure enjoyed shopping online vs. braving the stores!

What fun activities! We did a little black friday shopping but it was very different - the main stores we went to early in the morning were empty! We did hit Menards towards the end of their block buster sales and since the lines were all the way through the store - we left. Went back later and picked up what we needed :)

Online shopping sure is a lot less hectic! Maybe next year we don't even venture out??!! Ok maybe for lunch at least... :)
