I think it's just about time for a blog update.
We had a great Thanksgiving with no pictures to show for it, dang it!
We went up to Logan to celebrate the great day.
There wasn't very many of us this year but it was so much fun with lots of great food!
And then the big event of Thanksgiving was our first taste of Black Friday.
We found out that Walmart had Rockband for only $50! That is a deal, so we pulled our pathetic bodies out of bed at 2:30 am to go wait in Walmart until 5 am when their sales started.
What an experience. It wasn't too busy when we got there but as it got closer and closer to 5 more and more people kept filing in. I started getting nervous. All of the sale items were spread throughout the store covered in black tarps and as soon as it was five it was whoever could grab them first. As soon as 5 am hit the worker didn't even have a chance to pull off the cover! It was off and all 70 of the games were gone within 15 seconds. Nate and I both got pushed and shoved but we both grabbed one. Why did you both grab one you may ask, well we bought two and sold one on KSL.com for $35 more! We totally made ourselves a little profit!
Our next stop was Smiths Marketplace. They had a 40' flat screen on sale that we really wanted. We didn't think that there was a chance since it was a half an hour past when they opened, but we walked right in past the grandmas fighting over socks and there was 5 of the televisions that we wanted just sitting there! We totally scored again, no one had thought to venture to Smiths Marketplace for tvs!
We returned home at 5:30 am, content with our purchases and extremely tired. We hit the sack for a few more hours with dreams of our flat screen dancing in our heads!

I couldn't end the post without any pictures!
I took these last month while I was taking pictures of my friends family.
I loved how they turned out!
