Getting in the Christmas Mood

We have continued to have the most relaxing few days post-Thanksgiving. It has been so wonderful!! We did do some Black Friday shopping. Matt took the late shift. He headed out to Walmart at 9:30 Thursday night to get in line for a new laptop. Our computer has been on its last leg for about 6 months now. We are afraid to turn it off because we aren't sure it will turn back on. So we decided it was time for a new computer. He was able to get a great deal on a laptop that we are really enjoying. I then took the early shift. My mom and I headed out around 6 am Friday morning. We got some great deals on boots and purses at Belk. We also picked up a few other deals along the way (mostly for ourselves). It was a very successful shopping day!

Friday afternoon we pulled out all the Christmas decorations and got to decorating. We got it pretty much all done. The kids had so much fun with the train under the tree. They loved decorating the tree and were actually a big help!

Saturday we headed out for some Christmas fun. We ate a yummy lunch at Chilis.

Then went to see the movie Arthur Christmas. It was super cute and funny. Made us all very excited for Christmas! It really is the most wonderful time of the year and we are excited to celebrate Jesus' birthday!

So we admit going to the movie was an excuse to miss out on part of the big Auburn Alabama game. We did watch most of it. It went about like we thought. We did score so that was good. It has been an overall better season than we thought so that is good.

We have all been a little stuffy and sneezey the last few days so we stayed home from church this morning so we can all be good and well before we head back to school and work tomorrow.
