Black Friday

The madness at this years Black Friday sale was out of this world. I’ve never participated in Black Friday sales mainly because I’m super lazy and I love my bed. I normally wouldn’t wake up for ANYTING at 5:00 am or earlier unless it has to do with the ministry, and even then it takes a lot of prayer. After looking at the ads I noticed that Best Buy was having a great deal on a Toshiba laptop and it was a little under $400. After lots of begging I got my parents to say that they would purchase it for me. So Thursday night after having an amazing witness thanksgiving at some friend’s house I set my alarm for 4:00 am. I wanted to be at the Best Buy off Hwy 124 at 4:20 to beat the rush. HA! I couldn’t sleep because I was worried that some fanatics were going to be camped out at best buy and I wouldn’t get my laptop. I left my house at 3:20 and reached at the Best Buy at 3:30 am. Let me describe what I saw picture this about 70 people camped out in sleeping bags at the store entrance. Yikes!!! Then I found out that there was a minimum of 10 of the Toshiba laptops and 15 of the gateway. I was still very optimistic when I received a store map that showed the locations of everything. However at 4:30 they started passing out vouchers for some of the deals. When the sales associates came to my area the Toshiba laptop vouchers were all given out, however I’m glad I stayed in the line because I received a better laptop ( more memory, more ram, more everything) for $200 dollars more, and I got the LAST voucher. Just think this all happened before 5:00 am.
Did anyone else purchase anything cool on Black Friday?

Wedding Updates

The wedding was absolutely gorgeous. It was an outdoor ceremony and thankfully the weather was pretty decent. The bride looked amazing in her strapless beaded dress, and the groom didn’t look to bad either. The ring bearer Mr. Anthony Barr was adorable. Poor Anthony kept dropping the ring cases, because it was hard to balance them on the pillow. The entire bridal party cleaned up really well. Anyway I’ll have to post more pictures once I get some from Josh. My camera died before the ceremony started. I’ll have to post pre- ceremony pictures once I upload them. More updates with the pictures coming soon. Oh the bride and groom honeymooned in the Pocono’s in Pennsylvania. I just spoke with Jessica on Saturday and they had a fabulous time.
