Black Friday!

On Friday morning Allen and I woke up at 4 am (actually Braedyn already had woken us up at 3:30 am), got the kids in the car, and headed to Walmart. We were on a mission! However, we did not realize what we were in for. When we got to Walmart the lot was PACKED. Allen dropped me off, so I could run in and claim our list of goodies. I grabbed a cart and rushed inside. It was literally insane. People were running with their carts, grabbing stuff off the shelves, pushing, hitting my heels with the wheels of the carts, yelling, and just acting like crazed animals. However, we were able to get everything we wanted and make it out of the store with both kids in good moods.
Here is Brookelyn and Allen standing in line. Both babies were still in their PJs. What you cannot see are all the people in line both behind and in front of us!
This was just the beginning though. We stayed out until 1:30 in the afternoon! And, Brookelyn and Braedyn were angels! Neither fussed or complained. We think this might become a Bates Family tradition!
