Black Friday

E and I were up at 4:10 this morning, waiting for Cindy to pick us and mom up for a day of Christmas shopping. She got to the farm around 4:30 a.m. and we headed to Edwardsville - stopping at Target, Kohls, Best Buy, Michaels and Walmart before heading to St. Clair Square in Fairview Heights for mall shopping.

As the picture of Cindy's full trunk shows, we were able to do quite a bit of shopping in the 13 hours we were out fighting the crowds. Of course, there's still shopping to be done, but it was nice to get a decent start.


E fell asleep in the car on the way back to the farm and I was asleep by 9 that night.
