Thanksgiving and Black Friday

It was a terrific five days off of work. Thursday was quite busy with the cooking for turkey day. I made the turkey while Sean made all the fixings. Everything turned out delicious. My parents came down and ate dinner with us. I was very happy to get to see them and catch up on alot of the things that I miss in their lives. Mom stayed the night and the girls were all over her. Chloe had made a game at school called "pick a turkey" that kept mom and the girls busy for well over an hour. Then mom read them books of their choice. When it came to bedtime, Chloe slept with grandma and Tristen slept with mommy.
The next day was one of our favorite days of the year. Sean and I were up at 3:30 am with our advertisements and our list in hand ready to go. Oh the madness had begun!! We got to Wal-Mart around 4:30. It was jam packed and hard to get through the store. At five am the sale began. We were able to get every deal that we wanted there, which is a very hard task! Next we were off to Target. Target is one of the busiest stores during Black Friday. They open at 6 am and we were in line at 5:30 am. We were near the middle of the line, the line reached clear to Farm King. People were not very friendly and were set on getting their bargains. They even had the police there. The "big" deal we were wanting to get was a camcorder. I have always wanted one so that I could tape my precious babies during their events, birthdays, xmas, and so on. I must say that I have the BEST man ever!!! Sean took off through the store faster than I have ever seen him run, he gets to the back of the store where the cameras are, twists his knees badly, yet he still comes out with my camcorder!!! Sean wobbles through the rest of the store with me, gladly we didn't have very many items left to pick up. I was so happy to get my camcorder and Sean knew how badly I had wanted it, so he goes to every extent, including getting hurt to get it! I am a very lucky woman to have such a great man!! After Target I had to stop at Menards. They had comforters for only ten dollars. I picked up a few blankets and candles, quickly checked out and we headed home.
Later on that day I had decided to go in and get my massage. Oh my I had no idea what I have been missing out on all these years. Sean had purchased me a full hour of massage and it was lovely. I have never been so relaxed in all my 26 years. The lights were low and the music was soft and the masseuse was awesome. Thank You Sean!! Once I got home I told Sean that I am going to start getting massages once every couple of months because it is well worth the money. On Saturday and Sunday we basically rested. We were quite worn out from all the activities that had occurred over the past few days. Sean is still hurting quite a bit so he hasn't been able to do much:( He says it was worth it to get me my camcorder.. whatta man!!!
