As we finished up thanksgiving I was clipping my coupons for my first Black Friday shopping trip!! And wow! We were out from 9pm at night to 6:30 in the morning and I was completely exhausted!! Got everything on my list and saved around $200 though!! So I will say it was a success, however next year I think I will be using amazon as they were price matching and had free shipping!

We then decorated the house for Christmas!! Pictures to come soon as I finish the details!! As well as our family Christmas pictures! :)

Then an exciting time as we got our kids baptized! It was a whole family affair with Russ's neice and his sisters neice as well!! Soo it was a eventful and exciting weekend!!

Christmas updates to come!! :)
