This year was the first year that I really enjoyed my Black Friday shopping experience.
Jules and I headed to Target to check some stuff out at about 8:30 pm for it's 9:00 pm opening time. We stood in a long line but were in the store within 15 minutes. We found some great deals on DVDs and picked out some stuff for Christmas. After that, we headed to Walmart just to look - and immediately left because the lines were too long and we weren't really looking for anything in particular. We headed home after that.
Around 11:15, Mom, Jules, and I headed out to Old Navy and Bath and Body Works. They both opened at midnight, so we waited in line for Old Navy for a little bit. We got some great deals at Old Navy (including my favorite v-necks and baseball tees for only $5), and then headed to B&BW where we got some great deals too. Then we went home to get our beauty rest.
We woke up around 9:00 am and decided that we wanted to go to Kohl's. So we went out to breakfast and then hit up Kohl's. We saved so much money at Kohl's it was ridiculous. It was definitely a success for the whole family.
After all that madness, it was the weekend. I was looking forward to it because it was that time of year for our annual trip to the Embassy Suites to celebrate my dad's birthday. We had a great time and it was relaxing to not do any homework and just read and relax together.
It was hard to get out of bed today and get back to school, especially since I have a cold, but what is keeping me going in the fact that I only have 9 more days of class after today. I am so ready for this semester to be over and I am ready to have a full month off for Christmas Break.
Here's to helping that you all had a fabulous Thanksgiving and remember to keep your head in the game for these final classes, projects, and exams that you have coming up!
Much love,
Jen
