Thanksgiving
This Thanksgiving I was able to take off from work. I have worked the past five years and figured it was time to take off and enjoy the whole day with my family. We had Thanksgiving at my godmother's house. I think Kylie is a fan of Thanksgiving. She loved everything she ate. She even had three helpings of macaroni and cheese and two helpings of mashed potatoes (loves them just like her momma does). She enjoyed being with what family was there and didn't want to leave when it was time for her naptime. After Kylie and I took a nap, Joe and I decided where to go shopping for Black Friday. We knew we wanted to go to Toys 'R' Us to get a few things for Kylie. They opened at 9pm on Thanksgiving night. We dropped Kylie off with my mom and headed to the store. When we got there, the line didn't look very long. That was until we got out of the car and started walking around the store. The line was wrapped from the front door to the side of the building. We were on the side, almost at the backside of the building. The doors opened at 9, but the line didn't move. We found out that the store was only allowing twenty people in the store at a time. At 9:45, we finally made it into the store. We found what we were looking for and headed for the checkout. Thanks to the store for only letting in twenty people, we were able to check out in less than five minutes. After Toys 'R' Us, we thought we would drive by Wal-Mart just to see if it was busy. It wasn't busy...it was a mad house. All we could see were the lights from cars driving through the parking lot. Every space in the parking lot was filled and there were still people trying to find somewhere to park. We thought we had enough for the night, so we picked up Kylie and headed home. The next day we did a little bit more shopping and found a few good deals.
