After sleeping in on Friday (no crazy early morning Black Friday shopping for me, and let's not even go there with the stores that open on Thanksgiving - that's not Black Friday that's "Black Turkey"), I picked up an eggnog latte in a beautiful red cup and hit up Best Buy and Target and scored all the deals I was hoping to at both places without sacrificing my Thanksgiving or sleep on Friday morning.
The rest of the day was spent decorating for Christmas and watching Christmas specials while eating yummy leftovers. Perfection.
On Saturday it was time for our annual tradition of going to the tree farm with friends to pick out this year's Christmas tree.
*Family picture in front of our tree*
That evening, Pamela and the boys came over for game night. She brought over some bubbles for us to enjoy since we hadn't cheers'd together with champs in almost 10 months and were overdue!
Sunday was all about decking the halls with decorating the tree and listening to Christmas music. Oh Michael Buble and Frank Sinatra how I've missed you!

Aww Serena's first trip to the tree farm. We almost went with a real tree this year but decided against it since our good ole faithful fake tree is pre-lit and who knows what mischief Lola would get up to. LOL I love your outfit on Saturday!
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect Thanksgiving weekend & looks like family traditions have started - going to the tree farm and all!! Your game night with Pamela sounds like so much fun & I'm with you on not sacrificing sleep or my thanksgiving for shopping - especially since sales run ALL through the holidays now LOL! Happy Monday girl! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston

It really is quite sad that the new shopping craze is on Thanksgiving now and nobody even shops on actual Black Friday anymore. With the exception of a few online items, I didn't shop at all this year and it felt great to just spend time with the family. Glad you all had a great time! :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you got to sleep in and still get all the deals you wanted! I did the same but via computer, ha! Love all the Christmas festivities once turkey day was over!
ReplyDeleteShe had a fab first Thanksgiving! ;) LOved hearing about your weekend. I gotta get a tree. Thanks for sharing all the deals with us today.

Looks like a fab holiday! I am with you on getting sleep. I don't care to go out on Thanksgiving to shop, but like that other people do - that means, things are less crowded for me :)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the sign that says it is not happy people who are thankful but thankful people who are happy. Love it!
