No Black Friday For Me!

I have only done the shopping thing the day after Thanksgiving twice!! It was fun and exhausting but not for me! This year that is especially true because I am DONE! Well, except for stocking stuffers! The Moody Teen's final gift is his 96 Chevy S10 with extended cab! Hopefully he will be able to drive it by Christmas! The Knight is putting in a new clutch and third door handle and then there is the part about me teaching how to drive a 5 speed! I know what you are thinking, "Why doesn't his dad teach him?" And the answer is because he does not have the patience to do it so it falls to me!!

In other exciting news, the Holiday parade is Saturday!! The Moody Teen will march for the final time this year and then enjoy free Villa Pizza compliments of the parade committee while I head to Peterson house to photograph the kiddies with Santa!! There will be elves on hand to take kids letters to Santa and each letter will be entered in a drawing for a cool prize!

So that will be how I spend the rest of my holiday weekend! Oh yeah, I put the tree up today! I had two strands of lights that were toast, which did not make me happy!! So, today, I am thankful that Dollar General (3 blocks from the house) was open and had 100 count lights on sale for $1 per box! Today was my lucky day! Here is what happens when I try to get a cute photo of the Diva with the tree!!

OK enough rambling because it will soon be time for a turkey sandwich for dinner and some pie! Now the big decision pumpkin or apple crumb! Tough!!
