Black Friday

I know we are crazy. But we (Jenn, Cheri (Jenn's mother) Shauna (Jenn's sister) met at 1am (yes you read right 1 am) outside Old Navy.  It was raining and cold and I was sick and could feel getting sicker by the minute.  The store opened at 3 am.  We were the 5th in line so we got our free Rockband WII game.  When the doors opened at Old Navy, it was crazy.  After that we sat in line again at Target, then Hooked on Toys, Walmart, and so the morning went.  I don't know why I do it.  It's not that I get great deals, sometimes, but not worth getting up that early.  It's the thrill I guess, or the crazyiness you see.  By 9 am we were so extremly tired and went home to sleep the whole day.

Thanksgiving

We went to the West Family for a wonderful Thanksgiving.  Cheri, Jim and Shauna was there too.  Matt and Jenn cooked some very yummy foods including 8 pies...I think I ate at least one my self.  Coconut Cream pie is my favorite.  We had a great time.  We also planned for our Black Friday event, and marked every store we wanted to go to. 


We did it!

We finally opened our doors for the public. What a week. It was crazy! I was sick the whole week, Rick was out of town and we had to get all the stuff up on the wall. Which should be a piece of cake, but the vinyl was not sticking to the walls. Jenn sanded the bumps off the wall and Rick painted just a couple of days before the grand opening. It looked amazing if I may say it myself.
