Jess Comes to Visit for Black Friday!!!!

We were so excited to have Jess come up and visit us. We drove her back up here with us on Thanksgiving night! Sad enough Kaitlyn was sick the whole time she was here along with Matt. So we didn't get to have the Oreo, fingernail painting PJ party that the girls had planned. This broke sweet Kaitlyn's and Melanie's little hearts. We can't wait to have her up here again when we are all healthy.

Some pictures with Jess before I took her over to Johnsons

Black Friday is by far my favorite shopping day of the year. I just get so excited and love the rush of getting a great deal. Julie and I broke Jess in. And Jess was a huge help to us. We scoped out the adds at Julies house until 12:30 got a few hours of sleep and were at Walmart by 4:15 am. We got almost everything on our list which is great. And we hit so many great stores! Not sure Jess loved it as much as us, but she did get some awesome deals!

This is the only picture I took. Julie and Jess standing in line and Walmart. Look how tired Julie looks. and if you think our cart looks full you should have seen it when we were at the end of the line, our cart shrunk in stuff as we waited in line.

I decided that is wasn't fair to Melanie to miss out on having Jess up here just because everyone else was sick. So I took her over to Johnsons to play with her. Kaitlyn was pretty sad about this. I got her to be not so sad by pulling out a High School Musical Gabriella Barbie for her to play with while we were gone. The poor girl was so sick! But she did make out pretty good, you see we have a rule that if you get your throw up into the throw up bowl you get $1. You see it is worth any amount of money to me not to have to clean up throw up. She came away with $3 this time. And I only had to clean up a big mess once. Maybe I should start taking $1 away when they miss?
