Christmas Shopping Day


This weekend we had a shopping day! My mommy, my sister, and I went out and shopped 'till we dropped and we saw A Christmas Carol in 3D. It was great, but I can see why this is NOT a good movie for kids. I really did jump a couple times. We had a wonderful day though!



On our way to our first store, we drove past Santa on the cornder advertising some store, and Jennifer and I told my mom to wave, so she did and then she started cracking up over it. Then we ended up going to the wrong store, so we had to turn around and we drove by him again, and made my mom wave, which sent her into an even bigger laughing fit. Then, just for fun, we decided to drive by again...and this is what happened:

It's great fun making your mother not be able to breathe :)

This is the best shot of Jennifer and me I could get, she wasn't in a "picture taking mood."


So I kept trying to take them of her candidly...





Didn't work too well :)


My mom was up for it though :) This is us in our 3D glasses waiting for the movie to start.





We got a lot of shopping done and had a blast doing it! The end!

Getting Caught Up...

Ok I'm getting caught up on pics!

NOVEMBER-

Erika's Birthday:

Happy Birthday Erika! My sister in law's birthday was at Claim Jumper this year. Thanks again, Mike, for the $10 off coupons! They made my super expensive steak not so expensive :)





Jennifer's 21st Birthday:

I can't believe my baby sister is 21! She only has one more landmark to hit...she can't legally rent a car until she's 24, so she's still not 100% legal yet ;) only 99%. It's still so hard for be to grasp that she's in her twenties! Ugh! Well we had a great night out. Per our tradition (according to her boyfriend even though we've only done it once) we all went to Red Robin. The food was great, we laughed a lot, and Jennifer loved her gifts and was sung too. She ordered a fruity margarita drink, just one, and didn't even drink it all. Pretty tame as far as 21st birthdays go!


















BLACK FRIDAY-
I will go into further detail AFTER Christmas as some people's gifts are involved and I don't want to give them away, but we had a BLAST! We left the house shortly after 2AM, grabbed some Starbucks, and hit the Sears line first. Then Victoria's Secret (see the SUPER cute FREE bag I got!!), then Target, then Wal-Mart. Surprisingly I got pretty much everything on my list! They weren't out of anything!







The Kitties In Their Holiday Best!-






Other Holiday Randomness:


(This is my super cute mini bottle of sparkling cider which I forgot that I can't drink becaues it's carbonated! Oh well, it's still cute!)
